crow11 0 Posted May 12, 2011 hi just put my new power supply in my mh1351 everything powers up ok now but now i have a next problem when i go to cut anything it starts to cut but the blade holder only seems to move abouut 2 inch left and right when cutting so you cant make anything out what as been cut,tried it on 2 different pc's still the same tried it through flexi 8.1 on lpt port with roland pnc 1000 driver and through signcut x2 with the mh1351 driver still the same, i have tried cutting circles and words and it seems to just seems to cut the same crazy lines in a roughly 2inch square, if i use the buttons on the plotter itself i can take the blade holder the full length of the plotter and back and move the rollers up and down no probs, when i do a test cut it does that perfect so just wondering if anybody had any ideas, i bought the machine second hand about a month ago when i went to pick it up it was working fine he did an image for me on it and as soon as i got it home the power supply went so i have never been able to cut anything on it cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arty-rc 719 Posted May 12, 2011 Just a wild thought, Check your cut setup to see if the vinyl material size is correct. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BearlyRich 167 Posted May 13, 2011 I'm all for wild thoughts Here's one of mine... Check your X Y axis scale numbers on the cutter menu. Mine are in the 20,000+ range (not near the cutter right now). It could be that they got set to zero or a very low number. The manual shows 25795 for both numbers, but that's for a Pcut. Worth a look anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crow11 0 Posted May 14, 2011 thanks for the replies all setting and page sizes are ok i have got a bit further now it must be a driver issue i have the caslite software so i thought i would try it with that with the generic hpgl driver and it works perfect,but i dont have that driver in flexi 8.1,ive tried the roland pnc 1000 drivers again with all different settings still just get the weird lines in a 2 inch area,ive tried to look in the caslite program to see if i could get the hpgl driver out and put it into flexi but it doesnt display the drives lol,does anyone know where i could get a hpgl driver what i can put into flexi 8.1 as the caslite progam is pretty basic and i like flexisign the best cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
