    Graphtec CE7000-60 Help

    haumana replied to trackingerror1978's topic in GraphTec Cutting Plotter Support Requests

    I don't have the CE7000, but I do have a CE6000. My first recommendation is to always pull enough slack on the vinyl so that the machine isn't pulling directly from the roll. So if it's a 36" decal that needs to go through the working cut area of the machine, make sure you load the vinyl straight, and then pull at least 36" worth of slack and let it just hang loosely for the job. Try not to adjust the tension of the pinch rollers, because it can cause the vinyl to jog differently if the tension is different from roller to roller. I'm not exactly sure what's causing the misalignment, however, once it gets misaligned, it looks like it's able to be consistent with it be aligned for the bottom half. If you have the time and vinyl to spare, you can try cutting the entire job in a single color and see if it still misaligns everything. You can also try using a different cutting software to run the job. I personally draw in my own weed lines manually. That ensures I can have the optimal weeding for the way I weed my projects. I also draw in my own "registration" boxes when needing to do multiple colors. Hang in there, it's slight learning curve, but once you get the hang of it, it'll be tons of fun.

    you can also try to download a different cutting software, they usually have a trial mode, and see if it'll cut properly. just keep in mind that a lot of the trial mode software will cut the design, then add a slash through the design. it's part of trial version and not something that's defective.

    First see if you can reassign the COM Port in Windows Device Manager to something 4 or lower. If you can do that, then make sure the COM Port number matches in the cutting software too. Then you can send a test job to the cutter. It's possible that Win11 did an update of some sort that reassigned the COM Port number. Auto updates in Win11 is problematic for communication to cutters at times. In the previous jobs that you've sent, did they cut well and only now you're experiencing the issue, or were you getting intermittent issue before as well? Just trying to isolate what is actually causing the issue.

    Have you tried swapping out the USB cable? Did Win11 run some kind of auto update? Is this a new setup for you, or have you had this puter/cutter setup, and only now are getting this issue?
  6. haumana
    I use a standard USB cable. Is this also a different computer than what you were sending the cutting jobs from? How were previously connected to the cutter? If this is a 'new' computer for your cutter, typically the drivers should be installed first, before you plug in the cutter. You should hit up the Graphtec website to grab the latest driver, and instruction on the driver installation if necessary. That should walk you thru the driver download and installtion

    Jagged cutting/drawing

    haumana replied to AotS's topic in SC Series Vinyl Cutter Discussions

    From what I can find when I search for Trajan Pro, it is a serif font. Though I would be concerned about all the squiggly lines happening. You might need to convert the font to lines (or curves), so it's no longer a font, but vector lines.

    is anyone moderating this forum? The amount of garbage posted on here makes me not even want to have an account on this platform.

      No official moderation.

      A few core volunteers, they can't keep up with the vast assaults of spam, so just skip it over, there aren't many threads active anyway, the true discussions are few and far between these days.

      I haven't looked at the forum in months, there's basically nobody participating. Just out of curiosity, did you have some content to share here or a vinyl-cutting question/concern requiring attention?

      Go to Signs101 if you want a more robust and well-visited forum, is my suggestion. (although many of their topics are also moribund, some dating from years ago)

      Just keep in mind that Printing is the new wave, not the vinyl-cutting segment of this industry.

      Aloha @kat@vinylabundance.com   I'm sorry if you  feel that this forum might not be worthy of your time aand effort.  This is a purely voluntary forum that US Cutter is willing to host on their dime.  There are only a handful of moderators that pop in when they're able to.  Unfortunately, since there isn't a moderator 24/7, we aren't always able to catch the spammers right away, but when the moderators do log on, we do our best to get it cleaned up as quickly as possible.

      We do welcome everyone who is willing to scour the forum and leave bits of advice, and who might find some answers for whatever issues they may come across.  I hope you give this forum a chance, as it's been super helpful to many.

      I am sorry, I didn't mean to come off so rude. I was coming on here because I was having trouble with my Graphtec CE7000 and the first thing I see is someone posting about anonymous sex...so I am like what is happening. Its hard to come by a forum or group that is not full of Cricut users. I was able to resolve my Graphtec issue I didn't realize there was a tracking setting my vinyl was moving all over the place while cutting.

    Win! Thank you for posting your results. The forum is solely supported by it's users and volunteer moderators, and any solution helps to go a long way to helping the next person.

    Welcome to the forum. I'd encourage you to register for an account. It doesn't cost a thing, and you'll be able get your post up immediately instead of waiting for a moderator to review and approve it. Just an FYI - your first two videos are not working. Outside of this particular issue, is your cutter functioning properly? Does the cutter test run as is should? Have you tried just cutting a simple shape and see if that cuts as requested? That blade looks awfully deep.
  13. haumana
    I would also submit a trouble ticket to Graphtec, because this sounds awfully complex, and I'm not really sure how many members have the F-Mark.
  14. haumana
    I would recommend you submit a trouble ticket to US Cutter. If any of the members in the forum can help you, they will definitely chime in, but this issue might be beyond the scope of the forum members, and I do not know how often anyone from US Cutter checks the forum.
  15. haumana
    That's usually a Blade Position After Cutting setting.

    Thank you for getting back to the forum with the new info that you've found out. This forum is supported by volunteers, and moderators and members tend to just pop in a out. We all try our best to answer inquiries, but as you can tell, some of us aren't quite familiar with materials or practices that some people have questions about. Any information and experience shared in this forum is always helpful and appreciated. Hopefully we can be here for any additional questions you might have.
