  1. Need Help F1612 - Predicted mark position lies outside of media area error

    Well its somewhat random. Most of the time its somewhere in the middle part of the table (I would say mostly third mark up from the left side or just before the camera should move back to the right ) - very very rarely lower marks. Also it pretty much never happens when I start to cut - it...
  2. Need Help F1612 - Predicted mark position lies outside of media area error

    Hi The local Summa support also suggested to turn the segmentation margin off. Turning it off actually made the thing worse. Today had again same problems and nothing helped until turned the vacuum off, moved the job little bit backwards and ran the damn thing again and worked like charm. So...
  3. Need Help F1612 - Predicted mark position lies outside of media area error

    Hi Yes I have given it extra space and the problems occurs less often in that case. I'm just worrided that since the media size is primarly meant for vacuum then it will suck too much air at side and the vacuum will be weaker :rolleyes:
  4. Need Help F1612 - Predicted mark position lies outside of media area error

    Hi. So as the title says I'm getting this error from time to time and it drives me nuts. So I put sheet on the table nice and straight - both back and front nicely even from origin side etc. I show the origin and media size with axis control etc. Then when I start to cut it randomly stops at...
  5. Need Help F1612 cutting/milling depth issues + question.

    Hello everyone. We have a summa F1612 for cutting reflective sheeting for signs and we also have a regular router for milling thinner PVC etc. The problem we have is that the cutting and also milling depth is inconsistant. What I mean by that is when doing through cut or milling the first...
  6. Need Help Plotter problems, suggestions needed.

    Yeah the F series has come to our mind but my boss isn't too excited about spending 5 times the money.
  7. Need Help Plotter problems, suggestions needed.

    Hey guys. So we have a Summa S2T160 plotter with OPOS (not cam) and we also have multiple problems. I pretty sure that here's lot of guys who can' help me out and give some tips on these. The first problem is that the OPOS cannot detect the cutmarks on reflective media like Avery...
  8. Need Help stupid newbie question

    Well thats exactly what I wan't to do since the aluminum sign bases are also made so that radius changes with scaling or proportionally the printed sign thats gonna be applied to it has to do also. So now I have loads of signs in corel and eventually I would like to convert them all to flexi so...
  9. Need Help stupid newbie question

    Okay, gonna check it out tomorrow if theres something in the left corner. I suppose that selecting image, right clicking and seeing an option to "convert to curves" doesn't mean that the whole image is not yet curves? Also one thing what I just don't understand is that if I create rectangle then...
  10. Need Help stupid newbie question

    Well my problem seems to be that if I select the sign the corner options and the tab to "relative corner scalind is not there". If I draw a rectangular shape then it is there. So theres some hidden flag with the sign that I need to disable or do or somh but what could it be?
  11. Need Help stupid newbie question

    I'm using both corel and flexi - I would prefer at one point for everything to be converted into flexi so we have designing-printing and cutting all in one software. All an all it seems that Corel. Flexi, Ai are all very similar - in flexi you can even select your worktoom type to be like one of...
  12. Need Help stupid newbie question

    Hi there. So I'm a complete newbie and completely stuck. So basically we started to do our own traffic signs and I'm stuck right away with the "give way" sign. We have 4 size groups for triangle shaped signs (give way and all the warning ones) and I thought that once we have a sign its just...
  13. Need Help Summa S2T160 not reckognizing regmarks on reflective material

    Does the one with opos camera work reliably? We were now offered a cam upgrade for 2 grand and we would probably take also pinch rollers media kit to add more rollers since with really thick material it tends to slip even with slow speeds. Ofcourse we were also offered a generous deal on F...
  14. Need Help Summa S2T160 not reckognizing regmarks on reflective material

    Tried it but it doesn't work. Basically value on unprinted area (white) is pretty much the same as value on printed black area - after scanning it says on screen that it doesn't work. Tried scotch taping over the regmarks - it kinda works but at some marks I have to add like 2-3 layers so its...
  15. S2T160 not showing up in flexidesign

    So the problem is that in flexidesign the cut contour option ( the one next to print - the little blade tip one) is greyed out - it doesn't matter if I have created an object with cut contours added and selected. At the same time if I create print job and print and cut with production manager it...
  16. Need Help Importing from corel to flexi

    Yes, you are right, theres a little blade icon next to print, but the problem is that its greyed out and not selectable no matter if the cut contours are added to the image and the image is selected etc. In production manager the cutter is added and works as it should but seems that not in...
  17. Need Help Importing from corel to flexi

    Tried to export from corel in cmx legacy format but the text was completely all over the place. Maybe doing something wrong. Also any idea how to just cut with flexi, I mean can I just for example create a circle and cut it without regmarks (since regmarks are added by printer but I don't want...
  18. Need Help Importing from corel to flexi

    Well the guy who setup our printer and software and did all the initials thing told us to use EPS format and us being complete noobs we just didn't know better. Gonna try out your suggestion today and if it works it would be a lifesaver since all the letter positions and gaps between words and...
  19. Need Help Summa S2T160 not reckognizing regmarks on reflective material

    Thank you guys for the ideas. natallica Haven't tried the scotch tape trick yet - do you recommend using the one that is totally transparent or the one that has that white haze in it to reduce reflectiveness- I believe its called the "magic" one? Got away at the moment by cutting 3x3cm...
  20. Need Help Summa S2T160 not reckognizing regmarks on reflective material

    So the problem goes as the title says. If I print on vinyl it finds a opos marks and cuts but when using reflective material like avery 1500B, T2500, T6500 or similar the cutter won't find the regmarks. It doesn't matter if the material is laminated or not. The guys who sold us the cutter and...
