Flatbed cutter is on my future list too. But I still wanted a roll cutter. For the flatbed, colex is on top of my list. But kongsburg seems interesting too. But that is for 2-3 years from now.

I use caldera. Workflow with my current summa d160r is perfect. I was told few years ago the camera was not compatible with mac/caldera. I'don't know if it's true.

No camera then. I have white ink capability. So I can print white for the mark if needed to. The take-up seems a good feature tho. I don't have time to stay in front of the cutter to pop the vinyl.

If you don't mind sending me a quick video of your workflow with diecut (I want to see the speed and final result) and a video of the take-up, I would appreciate it. I use the cleancut blades for years now and really like it. If you have absolutely no problems doing diecut, I think I will stick...

I'm looking to change my summa d160r for a new cutter that will mostly be used to make diecut stickers. Since I already have a summa, my instinct was to go with the new s3t with maybe the camera and take-up. The graphtec seems to be a good option too. So what do you recommend and why?

I can't do either. Pads are already a couples years old. So I don't think direct print would hold up. If they were brand new, I would check to sub-contract the direct print.

I've got a request to make vinyl to install on fence pad for a baseball team like the picture below. What material and laminate could work for this? It's just for logos that will be around 18inx18in. Thanks.

I got 3 box in total. I've confirmed with the tech that I've received everything I need. I've got this before the holidays and still waiting for my appointment.

Yes, It's covered by HP even if the printer is out of warranty like in my case. I've received a box of parts about the size of a mini-fridge (I did not open it). I'm waiting for the tech to make the update. Everything is free of charge. Contact your dealer about this.

I think your problem is the advance calibration due to the thickness of the material. Try to copy the profile and make an advance calibration. Maybe it will adjust it.

We use 3m scps-53x when using the 3M dusted or all this series. Work very well to pick-up the film and easily take off when wet. Even on small parts.

Thanks, but I'm looking for a white material not clear like the overlaminate.

You don't have a ''fuzzy'' look with reverse print on 3651? I use optically clear film for that kind of application.

Like the title says, I'm looking for a white PET film with permanent adhesive that is compatible with latex ink (HP 700w). I've been looking for this for quite some time know and the closest one I've found is compatible with UV ink only. All suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you.

Yes, 60% can be used but if the print go on an outside window and you have text both side, the white is not opaque enough. But if the visual is the same on each side (no mirror), 60% is perfect. Even printed on white vinyl, I've tested the 3 layers at 60% and I could see the colors through the...

We mostly print spot white only. Either in 6 passes or 12 passes. So speed is similar to regular printing. We also do white flood for second surface mounting. We print with a window perf pattern to install on the interior side and customers prefer it to using tape and it's less expensive than...

I got a 700w for almost 2 years now and never had a problem other than it was my fault. Latest updates changed few details and HP is making a free parts upgrades. I've received the big box and waiting for the tech to install everything (not sure what are the upgrades). My last printer was a...

I had a china manual laminator before and was able to do acceptable jobs. Now we have a kala mistral 1650 for two years and would have bought it well before if I new what it was capable of and how fast it get work done. I do full roll of laminate in less than 20min including setting-up the...

Did you ever tried Hexis? How is it compared to Avery and 3M? I know very well I'm not starting with something easy. This is why I do it over the winter. And my beer fridge is in the garage, less than 4 feet of the motorcycle lift. ;)

I'm in Canada. From my current suppliers, the brand I can have by the yard is 3M, Avery, Hexis and Metamark.
