  1. Got reply from support about laser. In fact it wasn't broken, just needed to be turned on via menu! I was wondering what is that "ON" setting was, now I know it's to turn on laser I didn't ask about deformed circles yet, wanted to do a definite test on these just didn't have time.
  2. USCutter: Laserpoint II-25in Port: Direct COM Port Baud: 9600 Flow Control: Hardware (CST/RTS)
  3. I drew one of them (bottom left symbol), but guy with the flag came with VinylMaster as part of included clipart... As for laser, I'm now pretty sure it's not working. Tried Laser Offset Calibration and laser diode is not visible at all... I think it's dead. Going to call USCutter about this... That's some QA
  4. And a success!!! I retracted blade even more and adjusted pressure on machine to 500gm and speed to 200-300mm. Cuts well now! Thanks all! Only issue I'm seeing is that circles are not circular. Is it something I need to calibrate blade offset (I saw that option in VinylMaster)?
  5. Did you read it yourself? It's full over Chinglish "pearls" like: Unfortunately I wasn't able to locate this "pressure-setting knob" anywhere on my machine. In fact it seems that instruction is for different hardware, judging from pictures of the control panel I'm really disappointed that USCutter sells these machines without even attempting to correct or check instructions manual... Also laser doesn't ever come on (when tried contour rest). Unless it's infrared... Anyway I finally found where to adjust speed and pressure. It was actually quite simple with arrows (I was looking for a specific menu, duh!). Another "pearl": I think I'll attempt to actually translate this manual (it's only 20 pages) to English and post it on my site (lensdigital.com).
  6. Thanks all! Sorry I didn't mention which video I followed It was one that shows how to setup LaserPoint II cutter. They do show how to adjust blade on piece of vinyl as well as postcards. I didn't try postcards but I will play more with it... At least now I know my issue is due to blade length, this helps a lot! Speed and pressure are adjusted via VinylMaster software correct? I didn't find option in the LCD menu (only moving and setting origin)...
  7. Thanks Mz Skeeter! I did mention that I already adjusted blade height as you described But I'll try again... What speed would you recommend for starters? Is pressure adjustable?
  8. Hi, I'm almost complete n00b when it comes to LaserPoint II cutter so I'm helping someone can help me to get started. Issue I'm having is when cutting blade (45 degree) starts dragging and lifting all vinyl with it... I tried reading chinglish manual for this cutter, but it's completely useless I've adjusted blade height as shown in tutorial videos, it cuts great by hand, doesn't cut thru vinyl backing, etc. Do I need to manually adjust pressure, if so how? What about speed? It seems to default to 200mm, even though I tried setting it to 150 max in VinylMaster cut 4.0. Any suggestions to get me started are greatly appreciated!
