How to change where the plotter starts the cut

[malachiind 0]

I have a Refine MH721 and got it about 3 months ago, however I have not used it but a couple times around christmas.

I was wondering how to change the starting position of the cutter. Let's say you have used a portion of the vinyl and need

the cutter to cut further to the left side, how would I do this.

Thanks,

Josh

while in offline/pause mode, use the left and right arrows to move the blade to where you want it,then push 'origin'

Simple enough even I can do it...

Thanks

What about the letters coming up when cutting, I am down to about 8" per second and still lifting up.

usually that means too much of your blade is sticking out.

I tried to lessen the length of the blade, but is still lifts up small parts.

I wonder if it is the vinyl, it is Avery

I used to be able to do it in the software, but now I can't.

I guess it was the vinyl. I switched the vinyl out for another sample

and it worked like a charm without changing anything else.

Guess there is a learning curve on the vinyl side of things as well...

Sometimes adhesive builds up on the end of the blade, so it is a good idea to clean the blade once in awhile with some rubbing alcohol.

different vinyls sometimes require different pressure,blade depth,etc. I can cut all day long with FDC vinyl and change to Oracal...have to change the settings. 3m,avery...usually all are about the same but Oracal just seems a bit thicker to me.

The carrier sheet just seemed to be real slick and didn't want to hold anything in place.

I tried several different cutting speeds and depths, but it didn't seem to make a difference.

The thicker lines cut out real nice, but it just wasn't good on the smaller letters.
