Dusted Crystal vs Avery Etch

[JTW]

On our vinyl plotter Avery Etchmark tracks fine but Dusted Crystal does not. Anyone else have the same issue?

slow the feed down, and the problem will disappear

I'd have thought someone would have had the opposite experience - Dusted Crystal has a synthetic liner, that stuff slews through plotters like a dream. Avery EtchMark is one of the most frustrating materials - it cuts beautifully, but the SECOND your shop goes above 15% humidity, that stuff crinkles and buckles. Sometimes leaving it off the roll for more than a minute is enough to watch it happen. Use 2, 3, or 4 rollers, turn down the pressure, slow down the feed - nothing is going to compensate for buckled material.
