Your head could be misfiring and on the way out...this is very typical of heads wearing out, the test print doesn't always have to show a deflected nozzle.

It looks like it's time for a new yellow or magenta (or both) print head.

Roland claims the opacity is increased, but what kind of real world experiences are you having with the new Max 2 White ink? Is the opacity great enough where a sticker printed with just 1 pass of white, will appear as white (and not washed out grey) if applied to a tinted window? We have...

New Blade Holder time. Drag knifes cannot make the turn whenever they are under pressure and the blade holder bearings are worn. If you're getting inconsistent cuts, change the cutter protection strip. It's either the blade, which you tried, the blade holder, or the cutter protection strip...

If there is a setting in the cutting settings dialog for resolution, make sure it says 1016. This can be a problem in Flexi, at least. As for the printing, you would need to make sure it's correct in the printing settings section and everything is printed at "100%" scale. If it's not printing...

Not. Worth. It.

Double pass on the white, unfortunately doesn't make it as impressive. I would assume the double pass adds a ton of time to production, with drying time, etc. How long do you think it would take you to run a sheet that is 53" x 36" exactly as you have it in your image, including dry times?

+1 for Allsquare.com - not better service anywhere on the planet than here.

Is this a single pass white, or double pass? What about printing gradients, and more complex artwork over top of the white? Any pics of this?

One last question - what are your experiences with tuning the machine to flexcut custom contoured shapes (say the more basic flowing shape of a car) rather than squares or circles?

Awesome, this is great info, thanks again. Which cutter do you recommend? We're after it more for it's flexcut abilities and it's dead on accuracy, which Summa seems to be the leader in. We have Roland print/cut and stand alone plotter machinery, we've looked at Graphtec, we've look at...

Great answer, thanks a ton for answering my questions. We plan on cutting them sheet by sheet, we generally print and laminate at 53" x 39" runs, printer to the floor sizing basically, we don't (yet) get into the take up reel printing or roll to roll printing, so I think Flexi will do exactly...

Just a note - I have also called Flexi about this directly, it seems getting an answer on this subject is more difficult than expected. It seems Flexi isn't super familiar with Summa's software and Summa always recommends heavily towards their software, which is fine, but doesn't give us a...

We are looking at the Summa S2 Series, T140 cutter. Summa recommends we use their standard winplot software with their cutter, but we are Flexi Cloud people, so we need all functions (Flexcut, Contour cut) to work with the cutter correctly when using only Flexi for Rip and Cutting (we want to...

Head rank is always supplied as far as I know - this is a required part of the install.

Just curious, why would you need to select only a percentage of a pantone color?

A "Z" in Images Is actually what makes you look like you have no experience in business.

I replaced the cut carriage cable today, so far, so good. Install was a 2 out of 5 on difficulty, just need to take your time and be sure you put it together the right way and get the cable the right tension for the plastic sheath it's in.

Sounds like you need a new blade holder.

A new cut carriage cable has been ordered, I will let everyone know if this fixes it.
