MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted August 5, 2012 That is not a solid answer... Flexi 8. .. Flexi comes in Flexisignpro... FlexiExpert, FlexiSign. Flexi letter, and Flexistarter. And comes In 8.1, 8.5, 8.6, So,, I ask you once again, what software are you using and on what operating system? What driver? Not all versions are compatible with different operating systems.. So which are you using? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pcrat 65 Posted August 6, 2012 Flexisign Pro 8 1v1 I had to download a flexisign driver pack from Uscutter Operating system is WIndows xp Pro Service Pack 3. Yea its weired.. i just did 3 small jobs.. again all worked fine. at around 4" squared. but once they get larger. it fails. Im uploading a video should be done in a bit.. hmm maybe it is the software.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pcrat 65 Posted August 6, 2012 Ok heres the vid, its just a short clip showing it flowing all the way over, and ya can hear the grinding noise.. this is when i did it at about 12" X 8" it should only be using about the first 15 inches of the cutter give or take. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HlIJ8opA3zU&feature=youtu.be Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pcrat 65 Posted August 6, 2012 Never updated before. the guy said it he never had a problem with it. ( bought flexisign used) He used it on an xp machine. Dont know how or where to update. maybe i should get my money back and try a different software. something newer for the newer cutters. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted August 6, 2012 your cutter is doing what Flexi is telling it to do. That is what you should be looking at. Not the cutter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted August 6, 2012 try the Roland PNC1000 driver in Flexi. see if any change. It is a generic driver Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
