    Well on a good note I would like to apologize if I sounded like I was lashing out but this was very frustrating! I have tried everything on the threads and they did not work. I finally got a copy of flexi 8 and was able to cut very large and detailed graphics with so far no problems. the thing that is funny is that I noticed that in signblazer elements that when it was sending to the cutter and cutting that is where it would lock up(in the progress bar) then the cutter would stop! In my opinion since the software change I am going with the problem is a software issue. Now on another note it would still be US Cutter's problem with supplying this software into the cutter package. Maybe look into this. Thanks everone for any replies to figuing out this problem!

    I have had the locking up issue now along with everyone else on this forum who purchased the cutter and would like to know how I go about getting this replaced. I purchased it less than a year ago and it is still under warranty. This is a costly malfunction and it needs to be resolved. How and when can I replace this with a new one. I am lossing $$$ on every job! Please advise with something related to this topic and not one of the million other things I have tried along with others with the same issue and they did not work. Thanks!

    Ken,

    with all do respect I find it hard to belive that you want me to purchase another computer to run this machine after I already spent 400 + on this cutter. I am a business owner and if I told one of my customers that they would never use my services again. This is not an issue with our computers. I have been in the design feild for 13 years and never heard of such a thing. The problem is the machine. I have a top of the line computer for design and have NEVER had an issue like this before. I can not even cut a 18 x 24 inch sign out for christ sake. This machine is faulty and I would like to get it replaced. It is not even a year old and is still under the warranty so how do I go about sending it back and getting a new one?  This seems to be a very bad situation. I hope we can get it resolved

    Thank you too all. The cutter has worked fine in the past. I have many successfull jobs so far. Here is the file I am trying to cut. My settings in blazer are. Baud 9600, data bits 8 stop bits 1, flow control- I have tried both settings. These settings were exact in the device manager also. I have tried 3 new usb cables and a fresh install of both the software for blazer and also the usb drivers. The only thing that I can see that is different is the size. I tried cutting an 18 x 24 inch from another graphic and it worked fine. Then I tried to break this design into sections but it was still freezing more often than not. I also downloaded the updated version of the blazer software. I have cut some other designs since this afternoon when this started but it is dominantly freezing with this one in particular. I have tried everything that is stated on evry post here like I said, nothing seems to work. I even tried recreating the whole file and it still does it. I am stumped on this one and it is driving me crazy!I guess because I am on a deadline job and can not seem to get this sucker to cut right! Yes I was ranting in my first post but that was hours of aggrevation with no good results. I am at a complete stand still here !

    Hello,

    I am having a mother !@#$%&! lock up problem with my creation pcut. I searched high and low here and over at sign blazer forums but can not seem to find an aswer to solve this !@#$@#! problem. I have wasted almost 10 yards of vinyl trying to get this peice of !@#$ to work correctly. I have adjusted my settings, I have tried new usb cables, I have tried Hardware, xon x off everything that is here and on the sign blazer forums. I have downloaded the supposedly fix for sign blazer elements and did nothing but waste 7 hours with this crap! Sign Blazer says its hardware, US Cutter says its software! Does anyone have a fix for this. I have a big job to get done and have wasted too much time and now $$ with no success in getting my Issue resolved. The cutter will start cutting and just decide to freeze up. So far in 7 different location on the same or even diffent graphics. I have tried new files, I am running windows xp with over 2 gigs of ram and nothing!!!!!!!!!!!  The cutter seems to do exactly what everyone elses' cutter from here that I read about is doing. This problem is all over this forum and sign blazer forum. What is the deal. Can someone please give me some advice that has not already been given because I tried everthing that is on here with nothing worked. What the !@#$ PLEASE HELP ME GET THIS RIGHT!!

    Thanks

    I have created a graphic in illustrator and want to cut it now with sign blazer. I have tried a million ways but can not seem to get it to cut the way it looks. I saved it as a ai file a eps file a jpg a gif I tried to vectorize it in blazer. All I want to do is cut it how you see it here. Black nothing else. When I import it and send it to the cutter it comes up with two blacks and a white in the cutter panel. Nothing is crisp when it is imported. Is there a problem with sign blazer I need to know abot. What am I doing wrong. I have literally spent 3 !@#$ing hours trying to get this crap to work! Anyone have sign blazer that works and could try to guide me through this! Thanks for any help!

    Hey firemalt, Thanks for the help. I basically redrew this damn graphic. This is the one I need to cut. I tried to import the one you did for me nad I am having the same !@#*ing problem! I think it is something with this sign blazer. I just can not figure this out. Check out the new graphic and let me know if you know why I can not just import this one and cut the damn thing! Thanks for even looking at this the first time!

    Are you allowed to use the images that are loaded into SB for ex: cokacola or ford. Is there anything saying we can not use them? I thaught if they where in the programm then they are free to use? Just checking. Thanks!
