that was exactly the problem. Thanks a ton for the quick response, guys!

Hey all, My plotter is brand new, the MH series 34" (i believe?) - Anyways, im trying to test it out and the pen attachments will not touch the paper. I've increased the cutpress, but it doesn't do anything. It's the pen attachment that comes with the cutter, so nothing should be wrong with it i'd imagine. Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong? I made sure to choose pen in sure cuts alot 3 when testing it. it does look like my piece that holds the pen/blade housing is slanted upwarards to the left side of the black box that holds the blade/pen. Is this normal? it looks level in all of the other videos i've watched. mine is definitely not level and i'm curious as to why it's keeping it from touching the paper? Also, when I try the blade, the only way the blade gets a clean cut is if I make the blade stick out as far as it can....is there something wrong with my brand new cutter? Thanks
