2 pointsUsing the SEARCH function ("roller marks" boolean search, with the quotes) for this Forum would reveal this topic has been covered over and over here. By the way, after cutting, it is NOT recommended to leave vinyl without weeding for very long. The vinyl self-heals and makes weeding difficult later. Just a heads-up.

1 point(Re)setting the point of origin 0,0 is a function on the cutter. Reference the owner's manual for that. If you are correctly resetting the 0,0 on the cutter, but when you send the job to the cutter, it's still jogging the vinyl forward 12", then you should be able to see that in a preview function in the cutting software. Try Sign Blazer Elements. It's free and it will only cost you a little time and effort to test it out.

1 pointYou can move the blade, but do you actually reset the 0,0 point of origin prior to taking the machine back online to cut? There should also be some kind of preview option in whatever software you are using to see how you item will be sent to the cutter. What software and version are you using? Have you tried using Sign Blazer Elements?

1 pointOK, it finally happened, my old Dell laptop has a problem with the video card, and the screen blitzed out. Found a nice Toshiba TECRA M5 for about $60 on eBay and I'm back in business! (The M5 has a legacy DB9 serial port, making it a good choice for connecting to cutter).
