  1. i tried a test today and none of them weeding great. the problem seems to be more about the force than offset. The one with most force cut the best. i don't think its a software issue Any ideas what the shadow is on the cut? this is new and doesn't look right. could the whole blade holder be pressing against the vinyl during the cut? The only thing left is to change the blade holder which i will do but i am not confident it will be the solution
  2. thanks guys i will try a test cut and look at finding a new blade holder
  3. Had this workhorse of a cutter for years and its been great. Never had to mess with settings or do any maintenance But suddenly its not cutting deeply or finishing corners Attached photo shows some kanji characters cut on metallic silver vinyl (the problem is on all vinyl types) If i try and weed this vinyl it doesn't come away easily as its not cut deeply/sharply enough. Strangely there is a sort of shadow on the vinyl too, where the cut shape is repeated. Its not cut twice but there is a duplicate impression of the shape. which seems odd Offset is 0 Blade barely pokes out of holder I've increase force up to 14 but doesn't seem to make much difference I've tried blades from 3 different manufacturers and replaced the cutting strip. I've also removed the carriage unit, blown out any dust popped some oil in there Any other suggestions? thanks a lot :)
  4. Recently started working from a new PC and set up the Graphtec 6000-60 on the new PC easy. It was working fine with sign cut. Stopped working the other day. "error 1, instruction not recognised" Does this in gL and hl mode It does it the second its turned on. I feel like some kind of corrupted job is trying to send data to the machine I restarted the pc, restored the cutter to factory settings and reset settings on sign cut. I installed the 6000-6o drivers The error persists If i use the old PC it still works no problem But i need to get rid of the old pc is there a way to see the old jobs being sent to the graphtec? if i click devices it shows under "USB printing support" but i can't see a job queue
