Doc 0 Posted October 19, 2010 EH721 Cutting Diagonal lines :thumbsup:/u] I have the EH721 using flexistarter. However, when I send item to be cut, the plotter cuts diagonal lines for the length of the cutting job, without cutting any recognizable letters or images only lines. I am using Vista toshiba laptop - Belkin USB cable - port set up is com4 - The test for the cutter works I can cut letters from Artcut but cant import vectors and if I drag and drop, the image is totaly distorted into long lines - which is why i purchased Flexi. Anyone else had this problem? Does anyone know why it could be doing it? Or does anyone know how to fix it this problem ? I have been working on this problem for over a week now..... Any help would be apprciated. Cheers Australia. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hockeygirl 30 Posted October 19, 2010 It sounds like static or usb problem. If you're on a laptop, I'd recommend a good external powered USB hub and make sure your cutter is well grounded. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doc 0 Posted October 23, 2010 Thank you - I will look into it .... I can now cut with artcut using PLT format only. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kenimes 42 Posted October 27, 2010 Which make and model of cutter did you have selected in Flexi? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Doc 0 Posted November 2, 2010 Hi, Uscutter - MH721 is what I have selected. Though my plotter is EH721 which is not in the list of choices. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kenimes 42 Posted November 2, 2010 Not sure about the EH version, but if it were an MH, I would try the Roland PNC-1000 driver in Flexi. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
debmarsden 0 Posted July 26, 2011 help can someone help me with my EH721, i had it operating yesterday with artcut, on a 25pin parallel port, then when i was doing a cut the vinyl got all gathered up and i paniced an turned it off, then i released the vinyl and retuned the carriage away from the mess, i turned it back on and it does not respond at all. in my hardware devices it does not recognise any hardware attached, when i connect up my 9 pin to usb(Comp) it recognises it but i still can't get it to communicate with computer to cutter. this is damn frustrating, i was so excited with the operation. please anyone help me...
