    MH 871 MK2 won't finish cut

    will it finish it with a pen instead of a blade? from UScutter support http://support.uscutter.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/57/1/why-did-my-cutter-just-stop-in-the-middle-of-my-cut
  5. Yes, it is a great machine. congrats on your purchase...
  6. What is a Windows Driver? A software driver or "driver" for short, is a software module that will allow your software application to speak the language the cutter will understand and follow. The Graphtec cutters and plotters speak two languages: HPGL (Hewlett Packard Graphics Language) and GPGL (Graphtec Plotter Graphics Language). HPGL is a generic language that is commonly used. Since most sign software packages have a Graphtec driver built in, there is no need to use a Windows driver to output a design to the Graphtec cutter. A Windows driver is a driver that will allow programs to use the cutter as if it were a printer device. Graphic design packages such as CorelDraw, Adobe Illustrator and others can send vector data to the windows driver to cut the design on the cutter. NOTE: If you are using a sign software package (Gerber, Advantage, FlexiSIGN, SignLab, Onyx, Wasatch, etc.) it is better to use their built-in drivers.

  7. for using Graphtec Cutting Master2, install plugins for Illustrator or Corel. , vinyl cutter must be on GP-GL mode. For Signblazer set it on HP-GL mode and use Graphtec 50. hope that helps User manual is your friend.

    laserpoint 36" and Flexi..

    adjust your blade offset.. also make sure blade is barely sticking out of blade holder, take holder out of machine, firmly in your hand cut across a piece of scrap vinyl, should only cut the vinyl and no mark in wax paper backing, put back in machine and use the machine's force to get the same results.

    Need help opening a .WPC file

    Graphtec CE5000-60 margins

    What is HOME for? I found it in your user manual...... never mind found this in your user manual If the media or home sensors have been disabled (set to DISABLED), be sure to specify the cutting/plotting area (see “4.11 Setting the Cutting/Plotting Area”). If the cutting/plotting area is not specified, the cutting mat may be damaged.

    Sign Blazer with Graphtec CE5000???

    Yes, you can use Signblazer with your Graphtec.. Use Graphtec 50 as the set up cutter. Make sure your cutter is on HP-GL mode. Go into the Signblazer thread and choose the ALL CUTTER version.

    Graphtec CE5000-60 margins

    I have a GraphtecFC7000MK-75 . I thought the measuring just wasted vinyl. I disabled the media sensor, and pinch roller sensor at the git go.. Mine was in background settings. I can place my carriage head right off the edge of the vinyl hit origin and cut. Less waste. No more measuring the vinyl, and just place the pinch rollers over the grit rollers and your fine.

    Windows 7

    from another post, flexi 8.1 and 8.6 both work on windows 7. Problems with missing FSUTIL.dll file usually occurs on pirated copies of flexi 8.1 . You can see it in comments on any torrent site with flexi torrent on it . Good luck with it
