    Cutters are not really designed to cut all the way through the paper backing, and going down into the cutting strip with the blade.

    sorry, that wasn't what I meant.

     

    Let's say I print a picture of someone's on a transfer paper; can I weed  (trace) with my seiki cutter. 

     

    Please see the image attached. Can I cut the image (just like letters)?

    Seiki 720T may run with the SignBlazer program using the Master/LiYu driver.

    Nothing to lose, and if it doesn't, you can run through the list of units and try to find one that gets the cutter to work.

     

    It Worked!

     

    I installed the SignBlazer Software, and it worked. The weeding feature is awesome, and the font styles are great too.

    Thanks again.

    Only thing I can offer for the .net issue is to reinstall it. Double check which version python is looking for, I do know just because you have the latest version doesn't always mean it will work and you sometimes also have to have an older version installed as well. 

    Alright, thanks. I have some packages installed, yet I get same error message. I will see if I will take it to a professional. Thanks though

    Very few free cutting softwares. I have a friend who bought a Seiki and it came with the same Art Cut you have. I am experienced at cutting for 9 or 10 years now and I could not get that software to work it was very buggy and would not connect. There are probably people with more technical computer knowledge that could get it to work but it was beyond my skills. I had them download and try out the free trial of SignCut Pro. It is a paid program but offers a trial period. If you have budget constraints it probably isn't what you are looking for but it might at least get you cutting for the free period. 

    Thanks. I'll try out the inkscape while I try to get the incut installed.

    installing inkcut is not as bad as it sounds and is a pretty decent free program. You should also be able to cut directly from Inkscape, under the Extensions menu, pick Export, then Plot. From there you'll need to setup your connections and plotter settings then hit apply and inkscape will send the commands to the cutter. If you have the driver and comms setup correctly it should start cutting.

    This is not a full cutting program like Inkcut but it works well enough for me as a hobby.

    Thanks for this.

    I'll check it out, cutting with inkscape.

    Again, I tried installing the Python 3 (since I need it for the incut) but it seems I have a .NET Framework issue. Can you help with this?

    Hi guys, hope you've all been good.

    So I want to brand a 100% cotto T-shirt. I want to put a name on the back of the shirt. So I'm thinking of using a Laser 1 Opaque transfer paper  for this.

    I'd love to know if I cab use a transfer paper for putting names on a shirt after the plotter cuts it out.

    Again, I want to heat press a white T-shirt, so I'm thinking of printing an all black on the transfer paper, so I'll cut out black letters.

    Lastly, if I print on white t-shirts with the laser 1 opaque, do I still need to print white color on it before cutting out the letters or should I just cut it out (since the color of the paper is white).

     

    Thank you for giving me your time. Grateful as always.

    I was able to pick up a legal version of Flexidesigner 10 for designing, cheap, a few years back. .  But Flexistarter has no problem importing all types of file formats.   

    I checked the inkcut, and it is quite complicated. I would need to download Python software before i'd be able to run it.

    It's not that outdated.  I use Flexistarter 8.6  and it is older than that. It's just basic cutting software. Very limited on designs, but great cutting software.   And I still use XP Windows. 

    I see...... i will check if i can import designs to the Artcut software. Which of the signmaking software do you use? Or do you use the Flexistarter for designs too?

    Thank you for the prompt reply...

    I have installed the USB drivers, but i have not been able to get the plotter driver. After designing, the plotter or compatible cutter/printer does not show up to cut out the design.

    I have downloaded different kinds of stuff, i even downloaded ReaderDriver Plus, which corrupted my BOOT file.

    In T-Shirt forums, someone said SignLab comes with the driver, but i can't afford that.

    Greetings everyone,

    I just signed up on this forum after scouring the web for days without any solution. I really hope you guys would help me get my cutting plotter up and running. 

    So where do i start? I just got the Seiki 720t cutting plotter and I have not been able to cut anything with it (apart from the triangle and square of course). The small disc that came with the plotter got broken, so i had to look for other alternatives which have been frustrating. The Seiki forum is not updated and there is nothing useful there. I downloaded their utility tool - useless. I have a HP Probbok 4530s and i run windows 8.1PRO on a 64bit system.

    I can't find the driver for the plotter, I have installed and uninstalled several. Please i really need help with this. This is the third forum i have signed up with.

     

    What i need: compatible driver for the seiki 720t

     

    Thanks
