    I am able to design stickers to be contour cut individually in Vinylmaster but I need to design sticker sheets and can't figure out how to do it so that it only cuts the outside contour of the sticker and then the rectangular "sheet"/ box they should all be layed out on. See the attached image as an example.

    Quick suggestion, try using a different software, to verify the problem is hardware-related. SignBlazer is available (use RedSail machine driver).

    I have tried to set the cutter to 0,0 but I am still having the same issue. I think it’s a motherboard issue now because it won’t even test cut the box anymore via the button on the control panel.

    I don't use either one, but here is a pretty good video from Vinyl Master. Make sure you push the ORIGIN button.

    I have just come across this issue where when using vinly master pro and doing a contour cut using their ultra marks the vinyl will now roll off the cutter and for some reason the rollers will not stop at the correct length. I have tried everything and cannot find out why the vinyl is being pushed out of the cutter even though it says the correct length in the software. Does anyone have any ideas? Edit: Now when I try to test cut the box wont even complete. the cutter cuts one line moves over drops the blade and then stops. This all started after I started a cut and everything was going good until it started going off and cutting random lines. I hit reset and ever since the cutter has not worked correctly

    I had the same problem. I fixed it after you trace the image on vectorize and before hitting accept, go to EDIT at the top of the main options and go down to EDIT CURRENT COLOR. Choose a different color like red or yellow and then it will accept the image.

    Contact who you bought it from. No one here can help with that. It is not sold here. Here is the website, check out the Help & Support section. https://signmaster.software/

    Adding to this it possible to advance the vinyl media forward using the feed command
  15. James353
    Thank you, that was my gut feeling! I had hoped it was a simplier fault, that was down to my lack of experience with the control commands.

    The head moves side to side (x) and up and down (z), not back & forward. The grit rollers (y) perform the task of advancing and retracting the vinyl, which you say is not happening correctly. If your Y axis is malfunctioning, there's nothing we can do about that from our seats here in front of our computers. You already have done some preliminary work to find out what's causing the failure (not the buttons) so the answer must be found within the actual motherboard circuitry. That is beyond our pay grade.

    Hi All, I have aquired a Graphtec CE5000-120, and noticed that the down button on the control panel doesn't appear to be working. I have since then replaced the control panel with a new panel, and cable ribbon that is attached to the head. Checked all cable connections. The issue with the down button control panel still persists. On pressing the test button, the graphtec cuts a triangle/square as expected. On starting up the graphtec plotter, (with the media vinyl loaded), I notice that in the initization startup, the as the head moves back and forward(as expected), but the media vinyl only move back but not forward. As shown in the following video for another Graphtec plotter model https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oh1zXyTEd5o Using the same button, I am unable to scroll down the selected option on the panel. I can only scroll up through the plotter options. Any advice, there?

    Stencil Masks

    DONMMA posted a topic in Other Materials

    Hello All ! I have some ViViVid stencil mask. The stuff wont stay stuck to the paper backing so when I try to print on it for my particular application, I cant. It does not stay stuck to the paper backing and bubbles form between the paper backing and the vinyl so it gets jammed up in my printer. Also when I put it on wood I have to dust it slightly with a powder so it does not leave a residue when I peel it off; the 2 things I don't like about the Blue ViVid stencil mask. Anyway I now wish to mask a leather jacket and this stuff does not stick to this leather at all, I certainly could not air brush with it because it does not stick well enough. So now I am wondering about different brands of Stencil. I wish I had the funds to order samples of every brand I can find tell I find one that works ---- On that note I was thinking about calling Dick Blick and seeing if they would send me different samples to try out. Or some other company ? I attached a picture of this 3m Bandage made by 3M and it would be PERFECT as a mask if I could find it. It comes with a backing as well you can see it still on the film on the jacket. That white part pulls off and it keeps it stiff. If 3M is not making a Mask out of this stuff I hope they figure out that they need to because that stuff would work great if it was on the right kind of backing and it could be cut with vinyl cutters if the backing paper was right. Its probably out there I just do not know where to look. Also I see I can buy this film in a 6 x 8 bandage. It would be awesome if I could find it in a roll that was made for a cutter. Then I found this : https://www.amazon.com/Saniderm-Protection-Transparent-Waterproof-Latex-Free/dp/B0765F2PKT/ref=sr_1_17?keywords=tegaderm%2Broll&qid=1701750165&sr=8-17&th=1 a roll of it 10" wide for tattoo covering so a tattoo will heal probably have to cut it by hand but at least I will be able to airbrush this jacket. Thank You! Don

    I've been on hold for quite a long time with Exodus Customer Care support number. I hate it when that happens.

    Maybe it is in your key pad. Did you look for a loose ribbon cable inside? Maybe time to purchase another, you have already spent a lot of time on this. Unless you want brand new, check for some good deals on Ebay, or Craig's list. If you have the room, and budget. Even check on the FC series, You can find good deals on them cheaper than a new CE6000 or CE7000. They are very heavy duty machines.

    I had to press origin and enter when it said "load meda" then it worked but now its not working even if I do that. I did cut 4-Play without the borders background see screenshot
  25. MZ SKEETER
    Did you ever get the CE5000-60 to do a test cut directly from the vinyl cutter TEST button? Did you ever try the CE5000 with a trial software that uses HP-GL software? Like Vinyl Master, Sign cut etc? The CE5000-60 are very easy to set up on USB.
  26. James159
    I'm thinking on getting Graphtec CE7000 60 Series. Once you know you can always make money with this lol. Will try CE5000-60 again tho.

    FlexiStarter 8.6v1 where to get installer?

    MZ SKEETER replied to SimpleDecals's topic in Flexi

    You are welcome. You have never stated which vinyl cutter you plan to use. But the Vinyl Master website software has more cutter brands compatible, UScutter version has mostly their vinyl cutters on it.

    FlexiStarter 8.6v1 where to get installer?

    That sounds reasonably priced. Downloading the demo now, thank you!

    Our Flexi Design package (Enroute complete as well) refuses to automatically register and activate its license while behind a proxy server. Not just my proxy server at work, any proxy server I put it behind. The issue appears to be the Felix design is not proxy aware, and does not automatically query for the proxy server when it attempts to register / verify the license. Anything I do to manually set the proxy server and it works fine. Unfortunately, in our environment, automatic proxy detection is the only option. Would any one have any suggestions? Yes, I have tried all of the steps listed by SAI. Port 443 is open. window.saicloud.com, api.saicloud.com, and api.artifylabs.com are white listed Local machine firewall is disabled Antivirus shows no blocking on the three servers or the applciation

    I know that Flexi 8.6v2 works on my Windows 8.1 desktop, & Windows 10 on a laptop. I am also getting ready to switch to Windows 11, but I use Corel Draw more than I do Flexi these days, but I have a lot of Flexi files, but most are in EPS format as well.

    Hello All, thanks for the replies. To answer Skeeter's questions: Is the image above being done with a pen? Or have you tried the pen? the image I attached is an example of what happens As the vinyl we're cutting doesn't cut I cannot weed it properly to show you the issue. . Have you gotten down eye level with the cutter and watched it while it is cutting? Yes the cutting blade travels along the inner paths but doesn't go out to cut the outer paths at all. I slowed it way down and the cutting software just seems to ignore that there is a path there, even though it shows on screen. What does cut, cuts perfectly with the perfect amount of force. I've done test cuts that span the entire width of the vinyl. I was thinking at first something was bowing or not making contact, but what does cut cuts correctly. What material are you cutting? We're cutting Oracal 631 Vinyl with the graphic CB09uB blades. Have you raised the force of the machine? yes I've played with the force to the point of it almost cutting through the backing materials. In all cases, inner paths cut, outer paths are ignored. To answer Haumana: what length cable are you using from macs to cutters? are you using a hub? no hub 6' cable that came with the cutter. I have been using the same 6' USB cable that came with the cutter, and I did use that same cable when testing with the 8600 as well. So, maybe it's a cable issue. I just got frustrated with that and didn't think that through, as it did cut perfectly for about a day and and half after we erased the machine and set it all back up. I'll swap the cable tomorrow and report back. reply to darcshadow: That would indicate the problem is not the cutter or any of the cutter settings but something on the iMac 1, or possibly the cables being used if they are not the same cables as used with iMac 2. It's also weird that it works at first then stops. The 2 iMacs are both 21.5" late 2017 iMacs. they are both running the same software in terms of Mac OS, Adobe Illustrator, Creative Cloud and cutting master 5 software. So, yes possible cable issue, but my experience on this, makes me think it's not hardware, but I'll swap the cable and report back. It's odd, for about a day and a half the cutter worked perfectly, then again started ignoring the outer paths. I do appreciate the helpful thoughts and suggestions. I hope you all had a good thanksgiving weekend if you celebrate it. I'll report back Jeremy
