nonabelle 5 Posted June 25, 2009 i have a question? what version of flexi does this driver cover. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
firemalt 10 Posted June 25, 2009 What are the advantages of installing this USC driver? Is it mainly for people using USC branded cutter, such as the Refine, PCUT, Laserpoint, and Copam? Or would someone with a Roland or Graphtec benefit from having this driver as well? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tlzimmerman 11 Posted June 25, 2009 Right, what is the difference between these and the PNC-1000 driver I am using currently in my flexi? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest fivestar Posted June 25, 2009 It appears that the refine points to the roland dll but it does change the vinyl default dimensions to US Cutters. Honestly I don't know if that would be totally legal with getting SA's permission but I'm sure a company like US Cutter would have already checked into that.

Guest Posted June 29, 2009 The only real difference is the names. The PNC driver was renamed, along with the DGI OM driver for the Copam. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DirtyD0g 0 Posted August 1, 2009 for some reason I still am not seeing this driver in my list when I try to install my new plotter. I have flexistarter that came with a seikitech machine. The directions say to install into C:/programfiles/sai/output drivers. My computer doesn't have that option. I installed it into C:/programsfiles/seiki/outputdrivers thinking this would correct it. Any suggestions? Thanks Alan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DirtyD0g 0 Posted August 5, 2009 Well I called and Talked to Brandon. He was very very helpful. He had me log in and he actually got in my computer remotely and installed what I needed. The version of Flexi I had was their special version that only works on their machine. Needless to say the software doesn't outlast the machine, because it will only work on their machine. Brandon installed Sign Blazer for me. The bad news is I(mostly my wife actually) have to learn different software. She is having difficulties with it, but I'm sure we'll figure it out soon. She said she thinks it is better software and chooses to learn it as well. Thanks Brandon, I haven't actually used the machine I bought yet, but I am sure we will be pleased.

BannerJohn 1,324 Posted August 6, 2009 yeah I have a version of Flexi like that too. Worthless except with that one cutter. SignBlazer is ok once you get used to it. It will actually do more than Flexi Starter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brandon_Davis 1 Posted August 6, 2009 Flexi gets re-branded and sold in versions that do not necessarily work with other cutters... The version that US Cutter sells should work with virtually any cutter and it will except output driver updates... Many others will not except the updates... Regardless you should always try the driver pack, however your flexi is installed the .CFM file needs to end up into the "Output Drives" folder... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DirtyD0g 0 Posted August 7, 2009 The huge glitch I have found in signblazer is the lack of a "show me" button. The software seems good for reworking images but lacks an important feature to me.I did call Seiki, in an accent I could barely understand I was told it wouldn't work. Wonder if I can wipe the key clean and use it for the most expensive flash drive ever. Alan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CyberChuck 4 Posted August 7, 2009 John, ARe you telling me that SBE does more than FlexiPro 8.1? I actually came across a copy of FlexiPro for free (don't ask me where, I hate lying to people). Did I waste all that download time for nothing? I haven't installed the Flexi yet, haven't needed anything other than SBE so far. And the Flexi seems to be HUGE - the install set is 3 cd's.

Just download the file and take a look at the readme.txt for install directions. http://support.uscutter.com/index.php?_m=downloads&_a=viewdownload&downloaditemid=44&nav=0,4,13 I was comparing these drivers to what I have on my PC, and observed that these new drivers are included in the install package for FlexiStarter 8.6 v2.

Sandstormdesigns 2 Posted August 27, 2009 Seriously CyberChuck! I don't think it is appropriate that you mentioned your downloaded software and it is not a big secret. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Joezeppii 0 Posted September 8, 2009 Hello, I have been using the method that Sparkness posted about 1 year ago. I can contour cut out of flexi, BUT only 1 row of decals at a time because the registration gets way off the more rows I do. I have not figured out why. My question is ......will the new drivers solve this issue for me? I'm using the creation pcut ct630 driver now. Thanks, Joe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WashedAshore 0 Posted September 9, 2009 A little help is needed. I have a lasercut 24 running on an XP mach 3 gig memory 3.1 MHz processor the cutter is running on USB COM 3 there are no other USB devices plugged in. the cutting software that I'm am using is Flexisign-pro V8.1 when I send a cut job production mgr comes back with unable to open port. any suggestions?? Thanks in Advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CyberChuck 4 Posted September 9, 2009 I am not very familiar with Flexi, but I have seen this problem in SBE if the wrong port is selected in the cutter setup. And I have seen USB ports change their own configuration. If I have a USB device connected and remove it and put another device in the same physical port, it's even money if the port settings changed or not.

WashedAshore 0 Posted September 9, 2009 Sorry that did not happen as that was the second thing I checked. All com port settings remained the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sarconastic 29 Posted September 9, 2009 washedashore, I have your exact setup, except I am usb a USB to serial converter cable. and the drivers I downloaded from US cutter work fine on mine. The only issue I had to address was the port setting in my PC, just make sure they are 9600, 8, none, and 1, with hardware flow control, RTS & CTS checked. Then check to make sure your port is set to the USB port your using. you could try comm ports too, maybe it's picking the cutter up as a comm port through the USB like it does on the Serial converter cable. Good Luck Kevin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vi.joco 0 Posted April 17, 2010 Hi There! To this type there is not a driver packet? Creation PCUT CS-630Z You are swarming well, but cuts badly. I cannot cut colours separately in a work, I use the designation vainly: "Pause between colors" Would somebody be able to help? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
