Welcome...I'm looking at that exact same cutter. Haven't been able to find much about the Xacto though...does it do ALL the same stuff? I'm looking at the FSC that will cut 4mm Dibond, is that the one you're after?

In addition, they come both flattened TIFF and layered PSD files. So, with the layered PSD files, you can make a gazillion combos with them!

The best way to determine if want to pursue it further, is to simply offer it to clients, but sub out the printing to someone else. After doing this for a while, you'll get familiar with setting up the files properly, what mat'ls you like to use, what mat'ls are used for what type of job, etc...

Why not? I didn't know that there was any sort of "territory" with a bulk ink system.

I always use the media rollers (for both vinyl and banner) and don't have that problem, unless using a 54" x 50 yd roll of banner mat'l (as it is usually reverse wound). Even still, I don't usually get the error, but the prints come out crappy if you allow it to pull directly off the roll (lots...

Check out the Triangle system from www.Nu-Flex.com

Are you looking to buy it or sell it on his behalf?

Yup, me too, but I have the 60" model. But, I got mine before they added the extra bars on top...I had to buy an "update" kit a while back to get those. Kinda thinking about the deluxe el-cheapo as I'd really like powered take-up reels.

Which wipers are you using...the all-white Mimaki-style, right? I assume you're using Max ink. If so, the old cork/rubber wipers are junk and are shot in no time with either the Max or Triangle ink.

Bad pump?!?! The pump has ZERO affect on the print quality, as the pump doesn't even operate during printing! What kinda crap is that?! The pump ONLY operates to fill the heads BEFORE or AFTER printing (and during cleaning cycles of course). I digress, but don't know the answer to your...

FM...which one do you have? Is it the el cheapo or the deluxe el cheapo? I have the el cheapo....would like to have a better one, really, and use this one strictly for mounting prints.

You need a laminator big enough to handle the width of prints you're producing...don't know how you could dream of getting by with anything less?!?!?!? How ya gonna laminate a 64" print with a 48" laminator?

Okay, maybe I used the wrong term...sorry...but in order to upsample a photo with any degree of acceptability, you have to ADD data to the original...this is done thru intelligent interpolation (above listed programs).

The color palette file has nothing to do with Summa or any brand of plotter. It just so happens that Summa kinda endorses the use of Corel. The color palette is native to Corel, so there ya go!

Agreed...if it weren't for having established ourselves, it would be a bit harder to do. However, we're only moving 3 miles from where we are now...country living, but very close-in!

That does nothing to ENHANCE the original, just bloats the file. PhotoZoom is available here: http://www.benvista.com/main/content/content.php?page=ourproducts&section=photozoompro_1 AlienSkin's BlowUp here: http://www.alienskin.com/blowup/index.html

We were wrestling with either a larger bldg or a storefront. We'd certianly rather rent from ourselves, so we're in the process of buying a new-to-us home on 5 glorious acres with a 32 x 40 shop...nearly double what we have now with all that room to expand if need be.

Wow Fred, that is some big news right there! How come the move?

AlienSkin plug-ins work just fine in Corel PP...
