  1. I have attached the spreadsheet I have created for my business. These prices are based on the oracal 651 vinyl and the oracal fluorescent. I have been using this calculator for the past year and it works great for me. I have never had anyone ask about the pricing I use and it makes it nice for anyone in my shop to be able to price something without having to bother me. LOL Criticize if you please I am just throwing out my 2 cents on the whole "Pricing Thing" Hope this helps anyone in need. Decal%20Pricing%20Formula.xlsx.zip
  2. I have a 24" tc series cutter and I just bought flexi starter 10.1 I believe. I'm trying to contour cut some printed decals with it. I installed the cutter as the liyu cutter tc series. I can send a normal cut to the cutter but when I attempt to contour cut with it and use the manual alignment and the Arrows come up they won't move the cutter. I'm assuming because the cutter is "not supported" for contour cutting. Can someone help me on which driver would work for contour cutting with it? Thanks in advance for the help. Joey.

    Rip Error

    Ive been using flexisign pro cloud 11 for a month now and it has worked flawlessly. last night I tried sending a print and contour cut through the rip and print exactly as I have been doing and it said rip error. I did some research and people said clear the prefrences so I did and still no luck. I unistalled the software and reinstalled and once again no luck. Im getting rip error 29 which it says plugin error and unknown operator. Can someone please help me. Thanks Joey

    Rip Error

    Okay I'll clean them up and see what happens I know I did look at the bottom a little bit ago and it said I had 5.6 gun ram fee and 350gb hard space free so I would think that would be more than enough.

    Rip Error

    Also how would I rasterize the image and not the contour cut line because if I rasterize before I add contour cut line it wants to put the contour line in like a square shape and if I do it after I add the cut line it makes it part of the image right?

    Rip Error

    Okay great I will try that. But I wouldn't think that would help now just for the fact that I uninstalled all the software and reinstalled so there shouldn't be anything In there right? It would there still be something from the previous software?

    Rip Error

    How would I go about clearing a drop shadow? I'm new to flexi so it's still a bit confusing to me lol. Thanks for the quick reply.
  10. I just got my new Graphtec today. I got it all set up and sent a few test cuts with just oracal 651 everything works great. I figured I would try printing and contour cutting some decals and that's where I ran into problems. I printed my design and printed it with the Graphtec registration marks through the flexi sign rip and print. After the print came out of my printer I loaded it into the cutter and sent the job to the cutter. at first I was getting "mark scan error" and then it kept saying "mark sensing level not enough" then a couple of times it didn't even try to read the marks and it just started printing some kind of code or numbers like in the picture. I'm so confused on what to do and I have searched for 4 hours to see what I could find out and cant find anyone mentioning the same problems so hopefully you guys can help me out like you always do. :-) thanks in advance for all the help. Joey
  11. MM64 all I have been doing is designing just like normal and then I have set up my graphtec in the production manager and it works perfectly. If im just cutting regular vinyl I just use the cut function but if im printing and cutting then I use the Rip and Print function. im using flex sign pro 11 cloud. Hope this helps Joey Clark
  12. Got it fixed. I put the cutter in Hp-Gl mode and it works flawlessly. Hope this helps anyone else in need.
  13. Thanks guys so MrMopar which setting do you use for the ARMS. Also im assuming that your referring to the settings on the cutter display? Thanks, Joey
  14. I'm new to the coroplast signs so I'm not really sure what to charge my customers. What would you all charge for this. It's a 24"x48" sign printed laminated and mounted to coroplast. Thanks for all the help. Attached is the picture.
  15. It's in a zip file so you have to un zip it before you can open it.

    Tc driver for flexi starter contour cutting

    So here is where im at with it. when I use the tc cutter and use the arrows to move the laser no matter which arrows I hit the cutter only moves up and down. No side to side movement. and then if I use my sc series cutter and try to use the arrows is has like a couple minute lag before it moves.

    Tc driver for flexi starter contour cutting

    So I installed the sc driver as we'll As the laser point driver and once again no luck with moving the laser with the Aaron keys. I was reading in another post though that maybe the cutter has to be hooked up via serial port? Right now it's hooked up using just USB could that be the problem?

    3M Samples

    I just received two 48" rolls of white reflective vinyl in the mail from 3M and I only have 24" cutters. Is there any way to cut it down so I can use it? Thanks for any help. Joey

    Pricing Question

    I would be about 8 bucks a piece on them. If they ordered 10 or more I would drop to 7.50 each.
  25. Hey guys quick question. I'm fairly new to the whole process of all of this. I have been doing it for about 6 months or so. I just recieved my copam and I am having the same problems. I'm running three cutters off of scalp. A sc series a tc series and now my copam. So when I send my cut job the different cutters I have to select the cutter and the com port. No big deal but I'm having the jagged line issue on the copam can I set my cutter at zero offset and my software at 25 so I don't have to keep switching it? Also I'm having a little issue with my sc cutting some jagged lines on lettering that it didn't use to do. I'm currently running 45 degree blades in all my cutters but it sounds like I need to switch? Thanks in advance for the help Joey
