  1. Colorado 1650 Printhead Cost

    Sounds about normal. This is stuff you normally would get on a document. I would never trust a verbal quote. And no service contract? You didn't consider asking about that? You should have gotten 1 year minimum as a warranty.... Imo, I see a lot of people complain about service contracts...
  2. Need Help Client Organization

    Use a CRM. or a database style app like asana, trello, monday.com, air table etc.
  3. Separate 100k+ stickers into 100s

    What machine are they done on? If its the colex, id split them into 100 x a sheet. slight gaps or a line between. cut the full bed worth. when it's done cutting, user, will see each row of 100x. scale will work. keep in mind, you'll ever have someone man a machine, or man the scales.
  4. Summa cutter

    Are you performing a cross cut? Or I'd this following a thrucut path ?
  5. SwissQ Impala 4 - Caldera - Color Management

    I don't agree in how you think it should work as it makes 0 sense. Once you've reached max chroma, wether it's 90% limit or even 100% do your latex black, that's the website limit of the ink on the printer. If 90% is max chroma for magenta for example, printing at 100% ink is literally worse...
  6. SwissQ Impala 4 - Caldera - Color Management

    Their linearisation and ink limits are done together. A lot of the time you dont need to have 100% of anything as you're most likely have reached max chroma before that. If max chroma is 85%, then anything more is just laying down more ink for no reason. The only time you'll see 100% is if the...
  7. Onyx 24 issue BEWARE!

    Should check the file first in the summa software. As much as we like to blame onyx as it's the natural thing to do, which... it probably is onyx's problem. im not familiar with the summa software, but see if you can do a dry run. Check the reg marks on the file as mentioned and see if...
  8. Should we transition to a dedicated RIP (Onyx vs. Caldera)?

    Employees done and go with every business. Usually to the other side. We moved from Onyx to caldera. Not looking back. I looked at print factory, but caldera does exactly what I need it to do, we rip over 500 files a day without issues. Runs all our equipment. Colour management is done by...
  9. Self-marketing opportunity?

    In Australia, it's quite common do so something similar. Buildings that have their backs to freeways, most will either have their own business name on them. Some ive seen "advertise here" messages. With some adverts. What's popular here is most will rent the space to advertising compare, those...

  11. SwissQ Impala 4 and Caldera 17

    Can't you profile with the exact?
  12. Should we transition to a dedicated RIP (Onyx vs. Caldera)?

    I only used Epson as an example as most will move from Roland to Epson. Im not sure which Rolands you're using. The Colorado M3 and M5 are on another level. and yes they would replace all Rolands with 1 unit. And as Victor mentioned, Ink cost is less. Roland is an entry level brand. At the price...
  13. Summa S One D120 vs. S Class 120T for High-Detail Contour Cutting?

    Tangential vs drag knife. heaps of videos out there demonstrating the difference.
  14. Should we transition to a dedicated RIP (Onyx vs. Caldera)?

    No dislike for Rolland, they're just an entry level machine. Same with their software. It's designed to do minimal tasks. Your at 5 machines.. wouldn't you rather have 2 machines with the same capacity of the 5 you already have? You factor in things like space, operational costs, electricity...
  15. Time for a new cutter

    I've had issues with both. because nothing in this world is perfect.
  16. Should we transition to a dedicated RIP (Onyx vs. Caldera)?

    If you're going to run Caldera, It's recommended to use Ubuntu. But yes, you're correct, you could get it running on other distorts if you tried to. but it wont be supported. The RIP subscriptions is for 2 things 1, Support. 2, Updates. 3* Features they want to put behind a pay wall...
  17. Time for a new cutter

    I own both, Graphtec FC9000 with Take up Option Summa S3 160TC with Take up Option Both great machines, If you're getting a drag knife, both Summa and Graphtec will be great. If you want a Tangential, then Summa. Graphtec has the Cutting Strip & Cutting Channel, so cut contours wont ruin the...
  18. Know anything about the EU-1000MF Flatbed?

    I saw it at the last print expo I went to. Not really impressed. It had a strong smell and nothing fast about it. Canon or Epson is what I'd look at.
  19. Should we transition to a dedicated RIP (Onyx vs. Caldera)?

    If you think Onyx is expensive, don't look at caldera. Caldera would cost double Onyx. Caldera you need Mac OSX or Linux for it to run. I have no exp with versaworks, but not do I want to. Personal, I'm surprised you run 5 rollands and haven't decided to replace them all with something...
