MZ SKEETER 4,708 Posted January 23, 2011 I have read where some people spray a bit of Static Guard around their cutter, Or put a sheet of Bounce fabric softner in their vinyl roll when cutting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MZ SKEETER 4,708 Posted January 23, 2011 wipe your vinyl with a sheet and put the sheet inside the roll core. At least that was the way I understood it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rino 0 Posted February 25, 2011 I had a similar issue and it turned out to be my screen saver popping up. It stopped the cut and would not continue even after waking the computer up. I turned off the screen saver and no more issues. I hope this helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
That Stereo Shop 0 Posted April 5, 2011 Usb is the worst way to connect to your pc with this plotter. I have ruined feet after feet of vinyl using usb. USB is fine if you are cutting small things. Switch to serial port and never look back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
