The plastic cutting bed on my graphtec FC7000-130MK2 is gouged. It's breaking blades at this point and they tend to rip right through the teflon topper strip because of the gouges in the plastic below. There's a channel there that it mounts in, but I CANNOT find this part anywhere. Jack at GRS...

Ok, this started years ago on and off. It was sporadic but now as of today it's constant. When the material runs on the higher speed, something inside SCREAMS, sounds like metal on metal screeching. At printing speeds there are no noises. What should I check for first? Any suggestions, ideas or...

Hey everyone, hope you're making the most of this sunshine if you're in the NE by me.... looking for this particular font. Anyone know it? Thanks!!! Ian

Ok. So why, when I have gradients assigned to a group do they shift without me selecting and modifying them? I've been hampered by this for too long, it's time to learn why this happens. In some cases, I can simply copy a group out with ctrl-click and drag and all the gradients contained in BOTH...

Ok, I'm running a Mutoh 1204 VJ and a Graphtec FC7000 MKII 130. Just recently my contour cuts started acting up. First I noticed on a 12' run, about 14-16" of the cut was off by about a half inch. The rest was close. Next problem that appeared was a tendency to cut a full inch off on repeated...

My VJ just started making a rather uncomfortable squeak/grind when it's backrolling the material initially. That check when it scoots the material in then out. Not while it's rolling material out, just that backroll. Is there any way to lubricate these things that I don't know of? Thanks!! Ian

Cannot figure out how to get the incredibly useless "transform with object" off of my created gradients. Can't do it... anyone have a suggestion? ... yes, I uncheck the box. It back on as soon as I open the advanced tab again. I've saved them as new names, opened and re-opened, tried in a new...

Ok, so here's the thing. She's a little long in the tooth but today mid-cut she shut down. Motors stopped, display shut off and now cycles every 10 seconds or so and tries to re-power. I'm assuming it's a power supply because the display flashes on and then off with a noticeable click. Repeated...

My FC7000MK2-130 is having issues recognizing registration marks. It's happened on the last three runs... I was able to re-run the jobs over and over about ten times each and get it to cut... but now it's refusing to recognize any one of the four marks on two separate jobs. Sometimes it won't...

... and this becomes apparent from time to time. I've been dealing with random (?) crashes and issues like this for years now without taking the time to inspect the reasons. Let me ask this. Does ANYONE know how to actually reduce points in a vector in flexi? I know there's a tool for it...

Looking for this particular font if anyone can put their finger on it. [/IMG] Thanks!

Anyone have experience here? I've got a customer looking for decals for a surfboard line, and I'm wondering who else here has done this... I'm guessing that the resin would act against the ink (eco-solvent) if not clearcoated or laminated. I laminate normally with water-based clearshield. Any...

customer of mine, re-set the rest of the logo and I'm not worried about the extra text but what is the font of "Brielle"?[/IMG]

Anyone used both of these materials? Looking for a supplier for the 3m.. need to get samples of both for comparison. Don't have MUCH call for it but I know I could do twenty or thirty hoods a year if I could find a reliable outdoor-worthy material. I've searched the threads but found mostly...

Running Flexi 8.1 and the RIP that came with it. I am starting to run more and more decal jobs of 1000 qty and larger.... I have been dealing with this particular problem for years now, never posted to try and resolve it. It's maddening. I start off a nice run of decals, hear the printer start...

Ok, here goes. I can vector these, but I'm looking around quick-like to see if this is replicated. The one sample my customer could find was print-on-3M reflective, but they're not available and he's restoring an old CASE tractor. Any idears?

Just as a caveat to anyone out there who hasn't tried it. You know the saying "get what you pay for"? Well, this is a perfect example. Don't buy this stuff unless you run a separate room for printing and don't mind dealing with the cheapest feeling vinyl you've ever tried. I'm not complaining, I...

I understand a little about the processes involved but IMO knowing a little is much more dangerous than knowing nothing at all. I'm attempting to rasterize a bunch of transparent layers in a 4'x10' sign I have to print to translucent. It sat about 40 minutes on 0% (when I was finally patient...

Did it this time. Evidently I deleted the font that Flexi uses to indicate color in the Fill/Stroke Editor. Result? The text it defaulted to is too large and resizes the tool, and since the box the tool is in is NON adjustable it is essentially hiding a button or two. Anyone know which text...
