Your understanding is a little flawed. A minimum of 3 dots per sheet is required. The tighter the registration tolerance, the more dots are suggested, however for everything from an 11x17 toner printed sheet up to a 48x96" board, we standardize on 3 dots to conserve media space.

In the Colex support area on their website are some how to links, including "[How to] Setting the Cutting Parameters of the Knife Cutting Tools" which describes overcut compensation. Also there's a fresh thread on Reddit covering this topic on the Colex ""
We recently got the invite to purchase a service contract, after we encountered a problem that stopped us from printing. We didn't find them to be a good value, because the machine has been rock solid.
Instead we paid the $200 remote service fee to get counseling over the phone. The problem was...
We need some suggestions for workflow -and- tools when working with acrylic .375" to .5" thick 48x96" sheets. We almost exclusively do second surface printing with this substrate.
Clearly weight is a factor and the thicker it is the more it weighs. This weight problem can lead to issues loading...
Novice question: would LED not be easier to work with, in some ways? Would there be a case for restoring such a sign using LED strips as replacement/upgrade in capabilities?
Similar issue on our Latex 570. I lucked up on info about a second side adjustment, but that quickly I've lost the source of the info. Did you figure out anything for your printer?
I'm about to renew our service agreement and I'm on the fence about Advantage Silver vs Advantage Gold. I can't find much info on whether Onyx Hub is useful for the extra $300, or of the Silver level is enough. I think I've been on Silver previously.
Thanks everyone for the quick input!
It seems to have been an HP issue instead? Someone said "I think you need to go to root (of the HP printer's PC) and then the Output folder. That should have folders listed that match the various print setting and material you have.
Find the folder that...
I’m filling in for my operator today.
I’m having a struggle with Onyx this morning. I have a file that is set up on the correct material in Onyx. It’s a window cling with an under flood of white. My white print heads are in, the machine is operational and onyx shows that the job material in the...
I saved a stack for my teacher wife, but someone answered my FREE Facebook add and took -all- the rest for his small sign shop. Thanks for the suggestions!
Good suggestion. We were getting 48x96 sheets but our supplier ran out. I was wishing that we could sell something that fits the waste, but so far no luck.
We're seeing the "suggestion" of sharp corners but the execution is lackluster. The square in the center of the circle on the orange vinyl has maybe (1) 90 degree angle cut out of (4) corners.
We bought the Colex updated kiss cut tool. However, our results are not matching my expectations. That may be a learning opportunity, so I'm not blaming the tool. We're testing on Oracal 631 and the cut result is low fidelity to the the cut file. What feedback do you have to help improve our...
