After you down load the driver, you must restart your computer. You have to go into your computer device manager and see where which com port # the driver is. Then go into your cutting software and use the same comport number in your setup as in your computer device manager. Choose your vinyl cutter in the cutting software. It must be between 1-4. This is not plug and play. You must set it up to match each other.

You have to have a cutting software, to be able to connect to your computer. So, which cutting software are you using? What computer operating system? You need to provide more info about what system you have. Is this a new or used vinyl cutter??

Have you changed the USB cable? That would be the first thing to change. My Graphtec did the same thing. New cable fixed it. Or if you have a cable too long, it may do it. 12 ft was max length for me.

Maybe if you post some screen shots of your set up, someone can help you. Is this all new machine and software. Or used? Whether you like the software, is a personal thing.

My cutter has always done that. I have a Graphtec. Most vinyl cutters do not start at the corner to cut, They advance to where the design was originally started to be designed at. What are you doing, just stopping the cutter and starting over? You shouldn't be. Example. I make very large decals, say 8 ft long, my cutter may travel 4 ft, before it starts cutting, but it comes back to the front of the vinyl and finishes the job No vinyl is wasted. The cutter completes the entire design. Always have enough vinyl loose to run the eintire order. Never be pulling from the roll while cutting. Please lose the word PRINT. There is no ink involved. Pet peeve on here.

Did you read the answers that we gave you already?

We don't even know what Brand a UScutter Laserpointer 3 is, So how do you know which driver to use in Flexi? Have you even gotten the cutter to cut just regular vector designs yet? What version of Flexisoftware? Flexi comes in many versions for different versions of Windows. Does your Flexisoftware have a USB dongle, similar as shown? Is your Flexi software new enough that it has a USCUTTER laserpoint 3 listed as a vinyl cutter choice? Flexi software has a feature in it that is a contour cutting program right in it, and it measures from the blade in the middle of the registration mark. You jog the cutter blade from the middle of each registration mark, (for value cutter) then the software saves those measurements to contour cut. In your case, your cutter ARMS, should read the registration marks. At the top of the layout screen is HELP, all your topics to use Flexisoftware are in those topics.

You need to be cutting on an adhesive cutting mat or you will be chewing up your teflon cutting strip. UScutter sells them..Walmart for Cricuts. https://uscutter.com/uscutter-vinyl-cutter-carrier-sheet-cutting-mat-a4-a1/

So which cutting software are you using? I had a Seiki, very likely you can't cut that, But with the correct software, you might. You need a cutting software thart has OPTIMIZE CUTTING ORDER. or similar name. What that finction does is You select a certain amount to be cut at a time of your 20 ft. The cutter will start at the bottom of the stripe and cut say you selected 1 ft. It will cut the stripe the 1 ft on each side of the stripe, then advance another 1 ft, again another 1 ft, until it reaches the end of the stripe. So your vinyl is not going all the way down one side and back. I always measure the distance from the side of the vinyl to the pinch roller on the left and right side. The distance should be the same I use 1.5" distance from the edge of the vinyl to the pinch roller. Make sure overcut is on. Also do not be pulling vinyl from the roll, while cutting. Have enough vinyl pulled and free from the roll hanging behind your cutter. I started my business with a Seiki for 14 months. Then jumped up to a Graphtec, because of the tracking problems. Graphtec don't give you problems with tracking. My Seiki came with Flexistarter 7.6. I still use Flexistarter with my Graphtec as it is great cutting software. I use Flexistarter 8.6 currently. If posssible, you could probably cut 10 feet and overlap the ends.

APRIL 3RD, 2025, Same exact message, different OP. last post..''

This thread is from 2020, OP never came back. Have you tried turning the lights in the room down? Making the registration marks darker? Just throwing a few things that I have read. I don't own the cutter, but read a lot. Or contact Tech support Monday. I don't know of any person on here that answers questions, that has that cutter. Sorry.

Your welcome.

Go into CUT/PLOT> vinyl spooler, > CALIBRATION ,Calibrate your CUTTER SCALE for the software. In other words. Cut a square 3" x 3", make sure it cuts those sizes, If not adjust it in your cutting software so that it does.

Your welcome, Have you tried turning off your antivirus or firewall? Did you ever try a system restore to back when it was working? Never seen a problem with the green light on. Plenty of info here, But pretty much what I covered.. Nothing else I can add. Hope you can find the problem. https://www.google.com/search?q=My+Flexistarter+dongle+light+is+on+as+it+should+be%2C+but+the+software+says+no+password&oq=My+Flexistarter+dongle+light+is+on+as+it+should+be%2C+but+the+software+says+no+password&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUyBggAEEUYOdIBCjQwNjI4ajBqMTWoAgiwAgHxBV9qmdCaC1Ti&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
