hey guys thanks for the replies. I am not cutting larger than the width of my cutter. From what I understand, the "tile" feature allows me to position different graphics where I want on the cutter screen correct? So say, I had a wasted section of vinyl on one side of the roll, with TILE I could then make the cutter print to the other, unused, side of the vinyl. On the cutter screen I have the "Autotile" button available, but all the other button icons on the top row are blanked out. If I click on them, I get a popup saying the feature isn't available in the trial version. This led me to believe that the tile function was locked out due to the trial mode. If it is available to me in trial mode, how do I access it? Thanks, Evan

I just bought a Copam 2500 with SignBlazer Elements. I tried registering my copy, and have not seen an activation code yet. I've read everywhere on here that the "trial mode" will give you access to all functions, but that is not true. I need to use the "Tile" function when cutting so I cut on different areas of my vinyl sheet, but that option is NOT AVAILABLE in Trial Mode. How do I activate ALL of the features I paid for? I understand if the ColorChrome company is going through an ownership change, but I need all of the features of the software. Thanks, Evan

Another question.. Should I have ordered the application tape with my vinyl? Is that the material that kind of looks like masking tape that you put over the non-sticky side after its cut?

Perfect that was what I needed to know. Thanks for the help. Is there a good reference anywhere for learning about how to do this stuff? I'm starting from the very beginning...

Hey Wayne, Thanks alot for the tips. So this may still be a stupid question, but does this vinyl come with the adhesive backing so it can be a sticker? Does it all come like that? What about the backing material that covers the sticky side? Sorry I'm just learning this stuff! Thanks

Also, any tips or hints on getting started with this cutter? This is my first one!

Hey guys, Brand new to the forum, and vinyl cutters in general. I basically have no idea what I'm doing! I just ordered the COPAM 2500 vinyl cutter to cut stickers for alot of the websites I run. I ordered two rolls of the USCutterDirect BGS Sign vinyl, as that was all I saw on the site. I just realized that I have no clue if this is what you use for stickers? Does this have the adhesive on the back and the backing paper to make stickers? If not, what do I do with this type of vinyl, and where do I get sticker vinyl? Thanks guys! Evan
