  1. I haven't used the pcut cutter in along time because the last time i was using it i would get halfway through a cut and it would just freeze. I've contacted support and asked before and no one has a real answer to this. 

     

    I decided to get the unit out of storage and I want to try to get it operational again but unfortunately my Flexi sign software doesn't work on anything higher than OSX10.6. Are there any good free softwares available for OSX. I don't want to invest in software when the cutter is broken. 


  2. Im using a 24" Pcut on osx 10.8 with the last version of FlexiStarter 8.5.  I know its not built for my version of osx but I've used to prior and not had any issues.  I have the serial port but trying to stay away from buying the keyspan adapter as I never had prior issues. I noticed that in the production manager when the graphic deletes at 100% that is sometimes when it stops or it will get stuck at 67% and not respond. It doesn't matter what size the graphic is 2" vs 24" it just always stops at the same point. I just installed an SSD into my macbook and i'm wondering if i'm just forgetting some type of setting somewhere. My only other theory is that the cutter was stored in the basement all winter with -40 degree temps outside, I'm wondering if that effected the unit. 

     

    Appreciate the feedback. 


  3. Hey everyone,

     

    I've searched the forums for answers on this and have found no results. Just recently my cutter won't finish jobs, it will cut about 50-75% of the graphic then stops and says waiting. I've left it to see if it resumes if it was a "buffer issue" and nothing works. I've replaced my USB cable, reinstalled Flexi, formated osx and no luck. I've never had any issues in the past but I haven't used the cutter in at least a year. If anyone has any input to help that would be great.

     

    Thanks.


  4. Excuse me i ment plot/cut. I am aware its not a printer nor does it act like one.  I attached an image, you can see the outer black box around my outlines. That black box continues to get larger away further away from my design each time try to plot/cut anything and i have to resize it down.

  5. Just wondering if anyone else has this issue. Every time I open a new file in Flexi 8.5 mac when I hit print and cut the panel around the design enlarges. I have to resize it down close to my image. it starts small by the cm then moves into inches. Also as this gets bigger i noticed it will start to forget to complete cuts. If i reinstall the software the panel works fine for 2-3 files and the cuts are dialed in perfect.

    I contacted flexi but i have not herd a response.
