wont^ the extra be for printers that bow the print? It looks to me like it's there for compensation for when say a latex printer warps in the center. Kind of does the same thing if you put producers in the center... But in those examples for some reason all of the producers are on the outside...

Hmm, could be. Haven't had time to play with it. I did generate a regular barcode and the hand scanner picks it up perfectly.... So I know it works for sure at least, just need to figure out the format of the postnet barcode. If it's just the guard rail it'll be easy enough to fix as I...

I should have it working by end of next week. For some reason all the postnet barcodes I'm generating don't match perfectly with the ones onyx generates... 99% of the chars are fine but it looks like there's an additional char at the beginning, so summa is saying there aren't enough letters...

Alrighty... Took a lot longer than I thought, and I'm only "mostly" done the bones of it. My javascript skills are almost completely non existent now, guess that happens when you never use them! I've had to chatgtp probably 1/2 of the code, then manually go in and tweak it to get it to work...

Which plugin are you using to get them in illustrator?

Finally got past 10 ft of kiss cutting these tiny decals.... I'm generating summa marks with onyx, looks like onyx did the front barcode as 35521116230... The back decal is 35521116235. And the filename onyx generates is "0KUHGMZ24BQ_03552112623" When I manually grabbed files I always...

Here's an example. These are .5" x .5" squares.... There's a few hundred thousand of them. Its going to take 20-30' minutes to kiss cut a bed worth.... So rather than have an operator stand here and waste hours watching it kiss cut so he can grab the perf cut sheets off.... Its much easier to...

Good to know. We plan on getting the summa with camera eventually for the roll cutter to work with our flatbed once we get rid of our graphtec.... If I can figure a way to use the same workflow as we currently do with our graphtec, otherwise might need to keep the graphtec around for awhile longer.

Long explanation coming! Were doing a range of 1" x 3" decals, .5" decals, 3" decals, probably 10 different "setups" over 40 or so different decals. We kiss cut them over night with the roll up option, then perf cut them into sheets during regular work hours, then Sheer them down. Doing it...

We CNC it. You could get a router for $100, a bearing bit and hl manually cut them into circles with a template. It'd probably need a bit of cleaning up though

They can both read the same marks if you change it though, cant they? Part of their whole twin workflow thing. I could care less if they're square or circles, so long as it works

Flatbed, but aren't they both pretty much the same?

Thanks guys! $200 for the plugin isn't bad... the OP's one seems very basic, just generates a barcode and doesn't place it in a spot. The video at the bottom seems better - Posting here incase someone else googles or stumbles on this thread... Looks like this one places it in the correct...

Do you happen to remember who was offering it or where the thread was? Search can't seem to find anything, been through 20-30ish of the top threads when searching. Its funny .. the goproduce software is so customizable and advanced, then the illustrator plugin summa provides is very basic...

So I ran into my first snag with Summa - One of our workflows is setting up 20-30 different Label files with barcodes... then we print the barcoded files, usually 10ish rolls at a time with however many of each # we need, then load them into our graphtec and run it as a cut. The files never...

Wouldn't laminating give it more UV resistance? Even if the inks super good at lasts 10 years in laminated... Laminate should add a few years to that. Haven't looked at how fade-proof Colorado ink is... But I feel like I'd laminate everything with a UV laminate just because. Good way to...

Back in the day doing stuff like this was considered free advertising, and companies loved it. You could do hand made / fan art, replicate most things to the dot.... And the companies saw it as good publicity. I've always wanted to buy a van and wrap it like the Scooby Doo mystery van...

Stealing from Disney is one thing, stealing from another print company is something else.... https://www.sinovinyl.com/install-show/kt007-customized-car-vinyl-wrap/ Buy them. It's custom artwork this company "Made up".... It's not something you're going to be able to find anywhere for free...

As someone who does braille with a UV system... Braille is slow. The printers do 1 layer at a time, so to get the beads the right size it's doing dozens of passes. If just doing braille it's not too badmmm but adding tactile can make the signs take hours. IMO, a vision engraver is faster...

The youtube Channel Time to make something is heavy into importing from China... looks like he's selling Summa blades on his website now. https://bulklaser.com/collections/all - Might be worth it to try a pack and compare to what you have since he's selling in singles, it's cheap. I wish...
