  1. GS15-Plus Starts Cutting in the Wrong Place!

    Sorry for the delay in replying - had the cutter apart for cleaning and examination - no issues found. Tomorrow I'm going to try sending 250 labels again and will report back here :) I really appreciate your replies and suggestions. Regards John
  2. GS15-Plus Starts Cutting in the Wrong Place!

    So I've been cutting labels without any issues then, all of a sudden the next batch starts to cut in the wrong place! I have no idea why. Instead of the cutter blade going to the far side of the carriage to start cutting, it now moves about 4" and starts cutting! I've tried switching everything...
  3. GS-15Plus Roller Melting! Is there a quick solution?

    The best way to describe the roller on my Gerber GS-15Plus is, it's melting! Just wondering if there's a quick solution to keep me going? I'm in the UK so sending it to the US is not an option at present!! Cheers John
  4. Edge FX Cassette Not Aligning - Take-Up Roller Not Turning.

    Good morning all from a wet UK My Gerber Edge FX has a problem! When I insert a cassette the take-up roller is not being 'engaged' into the drive gear (hope I explained that adequately) The drive engagement should happen when the cassette lowers for printing - I believe a push mechanism on the...
  5. Discussion Gerber Edge FX - Part Broken

    Good morning all from the sunny UK. So I went to our shop this morning to print off 2500 labels. The first colour printed great but when I withdrew the foil a part came out with it! This is the part: and it should be located here: The left The part seems to be a locator for the foil reel...
  6. Need Help BN-20 Didn't Rewind to Cut!

    Hi guys, I wonder if someone can assist in rescuing a half done job? I created a job for 'Print & Cut'. The print went just fine (about 3 metres) but when it came to the end of printing, the BN-20 didn't rewind the vinyl for cutting! Is there any way I can rescue this job? At present it's...
  7. Question Smallest Font?

    Hello all from a very wet & windy UK!! A customer who I do quite a bit of work for has asked me to produce 500 labels, BUT, they're very small at just 13.5mm wide and 8.5mm high. I don't think that's a problem for the GS15Plus. The problem might be that on this label there'll be 3 lines of...
  8. Question Alternative To Ip6901 For Textiles?

    Hi guys We've been using TexGraphics IP6901 White for Gerber Edge FX to print transfers for textiles - t-shirts etc. It's not been the easiest product to work with and is very expensive from Spandex UK. Just wondering what other vinyls suitable for heat pressing onto t-shirts etc; are...

  11. Question Is There a Clear Vinyl for Textile Use?

    I'm finding ImagePerfect IP6901 practically impossible to cut unless the design is large without small objects. Is there a clear textile vinyl available? If so, I could cut around the design rather than having to weed small objects. Cheers John
  12. Anyone Using Image Perfect IP6901 Textile Vinyl?

    I purchased 1 roll of IP6901 from Spandex. Prints perfectly on the FX and cuts fine on the GS15Plus plotter except for small letter or objects! The problem is that the IP6901 has little or hardly any adhesion to its backing. Just wondering if I have a bad rool and would be interested how...
  13. Need Help How Can I Slow Down the Cutting Speed?

    Hi again Using Omega 5 with Gerber Edge FX and GS15Plus plotter. Is there a setting to slow down the cutting speed. I have a feeling that it maybe cutting too fast on some designs. Cheers John
  14. No Printing, No Target, Just Cutting?

    Hi guys I've been asked to cut 500 screen protectors from some 'cling' I have. Creating the design is easy but, as I have no printed target, where do I set the blade before I send the job? Usually my printed target is somewhere near the midle but for this job, do I just start from the parked...
  15. Choke & Spread

    Hi guys Another plea for help I'm afraid! I've been asked to produce some labels measuring 5cms x 2.5cms. The labels are quite simple with just a black background with red text and an incrementing number and barcode. The problem I'm having is the white vinyl showing between the red text and...

  18. ImagePerfect IP6901 - No Adhesion Between Backing and Vinyl!

    Hi guys Not sure whether others have experienced this issue? When I cut ImagePerfect IP6901, the cuts practically fall off the backing or, at best, start curling up BEFORE one has time to remove from the cutter! ImagePerfect IP6901: IP 6901 is a thermally-printable, white polyurethane...
  19. Edge FX - What does this setting do?

    Everytime I print I have to open the cartridge and manually reel back the film so the next print doesn't waste about 9"! So, I'm wondering if the setting in the picture has any influence over this.
  20. Convert a pdf File to Vector for use with Omega

    I know, this is a very basic question but, after a hard day's work, I'm feeling 'brain dead'! I've been sent a bitmap in .pdf format and the customer wants me to print & cut several 100 of these disks on cling. I've no problem when the pdf bitmap is in a format I can use with Omega! Could some...
