MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted January 25, 2020 The Command for any other software than Graphtec software requires HP-GL language. GP-GL is Graphtec software. Flexi is HP-GL 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grandpa 6 Posted January 25, 2020 How good are these cutters..I only gave 2 hundred..a fellow passed and this was setting around...guess what I’m asking what major components fail? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted January 25, 2020 we almost never see components fail - over the last 10 years maybe seen 3 mainboards as opposed to hundreds for the mh series. other than that the only thing they need is new blades, occasional cutting strip and keep them out of the rain 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You didn't mention which other UScutter vinyl cutter that you had. But the blade offset on a Graphtec vinyl cutter is ZERO. A Graphtec has a servo motor, and may be night and day better if you had a stepper vinyl cutter before. If that cutter was taken care of, you got a great deal on it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted January 26, 2020 Too bad no stand, wonder what happened to it? It is standard equipment with the 24" on up. Maybe they still have it somewhere. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haumana 1,220 Posted January 26, 2020 I wouldn't be able to function comfortably without the stand. I have very limited space, vertical is the only way to go for me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
