    Moving Up

    The problem with the summa is the ribbon is only 100mm or 3.97 inches. The most common complaints were noticeable overlap and banding when your design is larger than 100mm. The Gerber foils are 300mm. This combined with the high cost per inch turn me off to thermal. I decided to wait and watch how latex printers evolve. If I had to choose right now I would probably grab a Roland solvent printer.

    Tiny air bubbles on layered vinyl

    I don't see any app tape on your layered decal. Are you removing the app tape?

    Thanks.
  4. I had one MH721 a long time ago that worked great so I decided to order a second one to increase productivity and have a backup. The second one had similar problems as yours and they wanted me to use parts from my working cutter to diagnose the new one. I didn't think that was a good idea for obvious reasons. I was able to return mine for full value credit towards the purchase of a graphtec but still had to pay $40 return shipping. It sucks for sure.
  5. Looks like you need overcut to close the gap in the corner and you probably need more pressure to help with the other section of the test square.
  6. You have the proper page orientation?
  7. I don't like to change my settings so I adjusted the blade depth ever so slightly instead.

    I don't own your cutter or use your software but did you connect it back into the same USB port as before?

    Coreldraw X8 is out today March 16/2016

    Yeah that's what happens but only within those programs and only as SVG. It displays correctly within Corel Draw and the EPS version will open fine and display fine within Adobe Illustrator but once it's converted to SVG this happens. The only way to fix it is to break everything apart and rebuild it within Illustrator and then use Illustrator to make the SVG. I'm probably going to switch to Illustrator if I can find a good deal on a standalone version. None of the subscription junk.

    Here is an example of the SVG problem I have. The SVG file does not display correctly within Adobe Illustrator, web browsers or Cricut Design Space. See example image below. I was hoping x8 would fix this problem. I have posted on the Corel Draw forums but got stonewalled.

    The last one imported into x4 just fine. It's something with the x7 and x8 EPS output that's not compatible with older versions. I have x6 also so i just have the extra step of importing it into x6 and then exporting from there to get a clean EPS. It would be nice to eliminate that extra step, too bad x8 is broken also.

    The x8 EPS files are the same and will not import into x4 or older versions. It sucks because whenever I need to send an EPS file to someone I have to open it in x6 and then export it again to get a backwards compatible EPS version. If x7 didn't handle fonts with ligatures better I wouldn't even use it and would stick with x6.

    I have x7 and it's OK but has some problems exporting EPS files. EPS files created in x7 won't import into x4 or older versions but EPS files created in x6 will. I also have problems with SVG files created with x7. They don't display correctly when viewed in a browser or with Adobe Illustrator. Some shapes show as filled when they shouldn't be. Could you send me an EPS file created with x8 so I can test compatability with older versions? If it's not too much trouble I would also like an SVG file so I can test rendering in Adobe Illustrator.

    Maybe Murphy Script.

    ARRGG! Appliance woes

    I had a problem with the control board on my dryer and they wouldn't even sell me a replacement board without going thru a local repair tech. They sent the wrong control board and the tech didn't notice until it was installed. None of the settings matched the dial. I complained so they sent the correct part but it got lost by ups. I called again and they begrudgingly sent another board. It arrived and the tech repaired the dryer. It only took 3 weeks and $175. A few days later the lost board was delivered. A few months later the board failed again so I replaced it myself using the extra board. Like clockwork a few months later the same part failed yet again. The dryer went to recycling.
  17. This was the only 24"x50y roll I ordered. I ordered some 18x24 coroplast, htv and some 24"x10y wall vinyl which doesn't have the extra length for the plastic supports. Everything else was packed first. My guess is they felt it was better/easier to do this instead of getting a larger box.
  18. I normally have no problems with my shipments but someone at the warehouse was careless this time. It really has me shaking my head. They tore off the end of the Oracal/Orafol box and removed the plastic support and then taped the end shut so it would fit into a smaller box. This caused the outer edges end of the vinyl to get bent. Thankfully the damage is minor but who thought this was a good idea?

    I haven't seen this one yet but I'll be looking for it now. We just seem to have lots of work from home/opinion survey junk and multi level marketing.

    It's a goblin for sure.
  21. The greenstar wall vinyl recommends the greenstar medium tack tape so it would probably work similarly with 631. From the uscutter website. "The recommended application tape for use with GreenStar Indoor Vinyl is GreenStar Classic medium tack application tape."

    software for sc cutter

    Silhouette Studio does not allow you to export your files. It has an option to save as .GSP but I couldn't even get those to open in Graphtec Studio. The version 2 Designer Edition of their software used to have a hidden option to export as SVG but they turned off the activation severs and forced an update to block this. People found a workaround by printing the file to a PDF printer but this too was patched. I know this because I had a client who wanted one of her designs cut. They have you trapped.

    Another hot job done!

    Nice work. I read her logo as Lever the first couple of times though.

    Do you have the fill plot option checked under advanced settings? If so you don't want that checked.
