your top photo shows that the red and black lines are overlapping, so yes, if you send both colors to cut, the cutter will cut it how it's laid out - overlaps and all.

i click the color part and (uncut it)if thats how it is done.  it also reads media at like 21.5 instead of 23.5 or 24 inches the width of the vinyl. looked at setting and the plotter screen shows the picture in orange

the width it is showing is the width between where you have the pressure rollers set - set em wider it shows wider but if you want to cut over 23" then turn the sensors off and take your chances running off the vinyl - that is fine as long as you are careful

so is the issue the logo and additional lines cutting through it?

or the cutter perceiving the vinyl to be narrower than it is?

how large is the logo you are trying to cut?

what software are you using to cut?

the cutter is cutting the line as shown like its not fitting it its box as shown. seems like when the cutter reads vinyl its showing around 21.5 instead of the full 24. i understand you have the pressure rollers set on cutter to the blue lines but its will cut into the decal. im guessing because of the box. the whole decal is 22 long. also using the graphtec software it came with

Is 22" the short side? If so, then turn the sensors off and do your best to not go off vinyl, because that would very, very bad - you will end up cutting into the cutting strip, and chances are the carriage will get stuck on the edge of the vinyl.

If 22" is the longest side, then rotate your design.

Position the pinch rollers to the very outer edges of the allowed area, and you can also set it to extend 0.4" in excess of the roller.

hello Everyone i have solved the problem with this issue. If you go to the cutting phase of the decals, you will see that it has a option about the layout. it the right corner you have to make the panel of the work area bigger so that it wont cut into the decal. The vinyl and the sensors were in the correct position the job size was just needed to the panel layout to correct this issue
