  1. Looking for slitter recommendations

    I know fotoba and flexa. They are indeed very expensive. I also know the royal soverign trimmer. I've tried it and it's not very precise.
  2. Looking for slitter recommendations

    I wish I could found something similar with horizontal cutter that would cut at specific size.
  3. White Spots in black prints

    It look like contamination/plasticizer in your material. I see this often especially in banner material or a roll of material that is old. Check if it does the same thing with another vinyl.
  4. Summa Take up Add-on

    I'm planning to change my cutter too and the take-up is in my list. I've never found a real user feedback tho.
  5. digital print under epoxy floor

    And do you stick it directly on the floor or you make a first layer of epoxy, then the print and top it with epoxy? Did you ever do a whole floor? Do you do butt joint or overlap with this material?
  6. digital print under epoxy floor

    Do you laminate the print? What printer/ink do you use?
  7. digital print under epoxy floor

    My concern is the reaction between the epoxy and the material/ink. Like the epoxy creating an chemical reaction and ''burn'' the material.
  8. digital print under epoxy floor

    Well, I never tried it. But I saw some videos of installs. Some are just using poster paper and apply glue on the backing before pouring the epoxy over it. I would have a concern going this route. I've called all my supplier and few manufacturers rep and no-one could tell me for sure what...
  9. digital print under epoxy floor

    I've got a concern about the material shrinking especially for the butt joint or lift in anyway causing problem with the epoxy floor. Maybe the material is fixed there with the epoxy and will never move? Did you ever tried it?
  10. digital print under epoxy floor

    I have a customer that make epoxy floor asking me to make some prints that will be installed on a floor then poured epoxy over it. I know I've saw this subject somewhere here but cannot find it anymore. Maybe I use the wrong keywords. The prints will have overlap/butt joint to cover almost...
  11. Omega 6.0, edge II communication problem

    Make sense. I did not think of that and will definitely try it. Thanks.
  12. Omega 6.0, edge II communication problem

    So I have omega 6.0 with a gerber edge II. I'm trying to make a print and I have a communication error message. I run it on windows 11 and using a usb to parallel adaptor. Last time I use the setup (around a year ago) I was running this setup on a windows 8 machine without any problem. I've...
  13. UV or Latex---which last longer?

    I do prints on ACM for information in regional parks (history of the place with pictures). I've tried uv flatbed and latex and some signs are there for a bit less than 10 years now. UV print is a lot faster and cost less. But I've tries many finish like clear coat (multiple layer), film...
  14. Wanted Looking for Edge 2 / 375 plotter

    I have an EDGE II with a 375 plotter for sale and I'm in Montreal, Canada. So no border fees.
  15. Suggestions looking for new grommet machine

    I'm wondering the same thing. I had the impression it was easier to use it few years back. Maybe it has something to do with the die or the grommets? Not sure.
  16. Suggestions looking for new grommet machine

    Right now I'm using a manual grommet machine. It's great but after a while it start to be hard on the arm. We do not make alot of banners but sometime we got jobs that require doing grommets a whole day. So what is the next step after a manual machine? I would like to figure if the expense could...
  17. Measurement App

    I'm using imagemeter pro too for few years now. Alot better than paper because I can send the files to my designer right away. Plus, if you have a laser ruler with bluetooh, it can send the measurement to the app directly.
  18. Need Help Help Needed

    I have de D160R, so basically the same machine. It look like your blade is not turning well in the holder. remove the blade holder and take off the blade. Blow some air because it could have some debris in the blade holder. Reassemble everything, adjust the blade length correctly and try again...
  19. 700w alternatives ?

    I have my 700w since January 2022 and did not had any real problems other than maintenance. My last printer was a L260. We use the white ink alot but sometime we could be up to 2 weeks without using it. So the printhead storage is a good thing for us.
  20. Summa D160R and Caldera barcode

    Is there a setting in either the cutter or caldera to set the distance between the cutline and barcode? For some reason, when I have a print and cut, in some case a part of the bar code will go in the cutline section. So when I weed it, I see a small part of the barcode that went in the design...
