Using OPOS XY to cut multiple sticker sheets with Flexi/Summa

[CharmedRunning]

Hello. I'm running Sai Flexi 22. I'm trying to cut a large print job that consists of sticker sheets. If I just do ONE row of 4 sheets, it works perfect. If I try to add another row of 4 sheets within the same barcode, the cuts are all off. Suggestions, please??

Keep doing one row of 4 sheets, by the time you figure out how to do more rows at a time you'll be done doing it one row at a time

i have the same problem when I exceed ~4ft of print&cuts. I believe it is the drag of the material going through the plotter that works its way out of alignment as you progress through batches of cuts.

I've done longer batches by only exporting half of the page, flipping the sheet and rescan&export the other half, or thirds, or lines at a time. Its a bit more work but saves a TON of material since more gaps between prints & more barcodes = more media wasted, not to mention saving more of the prints that you would have thrown-away for miscuts.

We just use regular OPOS (always just worked for us). On the OPOS settings in Flexi we have the mark size set at .119 inch and max distance between marks is 10.0 inches. We regularly cut materials as much as 12 to 15 feet as one run with reasonably good accuracy although we do try to keep single runs and groups closer to about 6 feet.

I will try this. Thank you!
