Ok Nevermind, i just figured it out. ha ha. Had to select Com:3 not a USB. Wow I am a genius!!! NOT!!!! Thanks for the help!
-
Yep, I have set it up several times and using different drivers that people have said worked. But I just found a US Cutter driver on US Cutters website for flexi. So the issue has to be with the port I am selecting. I have tried every USB port listed and it just doesnt want to work.
-
I just downloaded the uscutter drivers for flexi and it still is not working. It says "cannot open port" in the production manager.
-
I am using Flexi Pro 8.1. I am doing a design for print, not cut.
-
I am trying to get my copam to cut from flexi. I have flexi 8.1 and cant figure out what setting flexi needs to be on for it to work. I am running a USB cable from the comp to the cutter. Any help?
-
Ok well then in that case, how can you create a blur like in inkscape and trasfer to flexi? I have flexi but no adobe filters for effects? Where can I get the filters?
-
May be a dumb question, but how do you vectorize text in inkscape?
-
here it is, it is outlined text over a blur Cutting edge 2.eps Cutting edge 2.eps
-
Do you know if there is a way to import an inkscape eps with effects into flexi? I am able to import other eps but whenever I try and import a text file it doesnt show up. It will show the box, but not the text. Almost like its hidden.

Thanks banner john Ill be sending him an email asap!

Yeah that and flea markets, ive heard a lot of good about those. People get what they want and they pay for it because they can have it right then and there.

A Pricing thought- using thesignexpert
DanielB replied to American And Proud's topic in Business Practices, Sales and Pricing, etc.
Im trying and its hard. lol Even Fast Signs in my area sells full color for 4.50 a sf. That pricing screws everything up. I dont have a printer, havent really needed one but every job I price with full color I dont get because they can go to fast signs and get it for half the price. Those places sell quantity, not quality, but really the consumer doesnt care as long as they get the best price. I have a customer now, shoping prices on 32 SF of RTA, We are talking about $100 bucks, but I bet my price gets beat. ha ha Well it makes me feel a little better to vent and I still have customers that are faithful to me but its hard getting new customers with all the other cutthroats in town. -
Banner John, is Mark still selling banners? I havent ordered any in a while and I need to.

Thats what I tell myself everyday as I do these jobs for less and less. lol I still make some money but wow, like I said an honest sign business that I buy wholesale from charges more for wholesale than the sign shop on the other side of town.....its just crazy.
