360_Media 1 Posted March 31, 2011 Is there any way to have the cutter make a final cut after finishing a job so that the job is cut away from the vinyl roll? (If that question makes any sense at all?) Or do I have to manually cut the job off the vinyl roll every time? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted March 31, 2011 Is there any way to have the cutter make a final cut after finishing a job so that the job is cut away from the vinyl roll? (If that question makes any sense at all?) Or do I have to manually cut the job off the vinyl roll every time? that option is on higher end machines with the cross cutting feature. like a Graphtec FC model....

Or do I have to manually cut the job off the vinyl roll every time? I take that you are wanting the cutter to cut the vinyl & backing paper off the roll . The answer is no . The backing paper stops the blade from touching/cutting the mylon cutting strip . If the strip gets cut/damaged , further cuts will not do well & you will have to do the repair or get a new cutting strip . There is a slot you can use to make the " final cut " manually . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
360_Media 1 Posted March 31, 2011 Yeah that's the slot I've been using. I just wasn't sure if over time I'd damage the machine by using that slot to cut over and over again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rodger 527 Posted March 31, 2011 that is it's purpose . I have used it for 3 1/2 years . You dont need to use anything real sharp .... something real sharp might damage it after awhile . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
