  1. Onyx jobs disappearing after the first job is printed

    Hi All Not had this before so not sure if I have clicked something by mistake. After I process a few jobs and click print, it prints the first job fine and then stops, the rest of the jobs vanish. I'm able to re-process them but the same thing again. I have restarted the computer and that didn't...
  2. Ink Costs using Onyx and an Epson S60600

    Hi all I still have't worked out how to do the ink costs within Onyx, once done how accurate are they? I know you have to put some figures in first from what I was told but it was soo long ago and I've still not done it and forgot how to. I'm just trying to create a quick calculator to work...
  3. Contour cut with Onyx and Graphtec FC9000

    Think I am going crazy I bought a new FC9000 and thought it would also be a good time to reinstall my computer. I've just gone to print a job and it's printing the cut lines. I went into onyx and took a look at the quickset I am using, the FC9000 is selected and I've ticked Use Cut Path...
  4. Anyone using Onyx in Windows and designing on a Mac?

    Hi As per the title, is anyone using a mac to design their signs and then printing or cutting from Windows? I've just bought an FC9000 so cutting directly from the mac is fine using the Cutting master plugin but when it comes to printing on the Epson, I'm transferring my files manually and...
  5. Printer profiles for Epson S60600

    Hi Does anyone on here have an Epson S60600 and wouldn't mind sharing some of their printer profiles for Onyx. What do you use for Wrap Films? T-Shirt Films? Standard vinyl? etc I have made a couple of profiles as the ones I found online were terrible but I get stuck on what resolution I...

  8. Setting up a print and cut job in Onyx and Illustrator

    Apologies, I am new to Onyx so I might sound a complete tool right now. When I do a print and cut job, in the past I have used Illustrator to design it, duplicated my object layer and created a cut path then added a bleed to my original layer. Finally I would send it to Versaworks to print and...
  9. Working with my new Summa S2 T Series

    Hi I've just sold my Graphtec FC8600 and got a Summa S2 T Series but on first impressions, I hate it! I just can't seem to work out how to use it. With the Graphtec I used the cutting master plugin with Illustrator and it just worked. Summa seem to have a million downloads, winplot, macsign...

    Hi I just purchased an S2 120 t series, . I actually went to collect a d120 but when I arrived it was a S2 120 t series. It's a 2013 model and being a Graphtec man, I don't know much about the summa brand but have the models changed over the last few years? I actually need a 1600mm model but...
  11. Setting til (total ink limit)

    Tell me if I am wrong but to set the total ink limit, I need to evaluate the print to check for bleed, contamination and how wet it is while looking along the lines where the is no visible or very little change. Is this right? I'm trying to establish the TIL in Onyx. See attached image.

  13. Shaking ink cartridges

    Hi all Having just got my new printer and going through the user manual, it states that you should shake the cartridges on a monthly basis and the white, metallic and orange on a daily basis. I've heard about shaking the white ink before on my old Roland but I have never been told to shake the...
  14. Onyx 12.2 and Epson S60600

    Hi everyone I've just had an Epson S60600 installed last week and although it's a lovely machine, I've soon realised I know nothing about it. Coming from a Roland printer, I automatically used Versaworks so that's all i've ever known, I've now had to come away from Versaworks and I decided to...

  17. New print head fitted

    Hi all I've just had a new print head fitted a couple of days ago on my VS-640i printer. I'm not sure if i'm going crazy but since it was fitted, it heats up before doing a test print, I'm sure it never did that before, should it do this? Also, I'm not sure if i'm looking too closely at it...
  18. Cyan dropped on VS-640i

    Hi all I have a problem with my Duel CMYK Roland VS-640i. I have a perfect nozzle pattern on all my patterns except both Cyans, 1 cyan has one deflected nozzle (Nothing major and can cope with that) but the other cyan is pretty much useless. The VS-640i has only one head and has pretty light...

    Hi all I have a roland VS-640i, I'm getting deflected nozzles and a few missing nozzles in cyan. I've done normal cleans, I've done manual cleans but they do not come back and the deflected nozzles remain the same. I've also put cleaning fluid in the capping station and and left for 24 hours...
