  1. Any use of "strokes" or outlines should be for print only.

    Yep! If I happened to catch something like that- I would send back to customer and ask that the designer correct before print...or pay you to do it.
  2. Graphtec reads marks, then goes back to origin?

    Also try printing type 2 or type 1 crop marks- my FC7000 I had was funny like that. It liked Type 1 better
  3. Graphtec reads marks, then goes back to origin?

    A common cause of this - is not enough material on the edges behind or in front of the crop marks- the vinyl sensors are becoming exposed during the reading. also make sure they are well within your pinch rollers.

  6. Not accurate cut with Gerber Edge and Gsx Plus Plotter

    I would try and create more of a bleed for the black border- so the contour cut is thru the middle of it- rather on the razors edge next to the blank white material?

  12. Gerber Edge 1 Printhead same as Edge 2 Printhead?

    but before you do--- take a magnifying glass AND flashlight to the head- I did- and found a few tiny specks that needed a soak in 99% alcohol and gentle finger rub to remove. the alcohol I used is VEDCO- from a vet supply company
  13. Gerber Edge 1 Printhead same as Edge 2 Printhead?

    Yes-I believe they are. The Kyocera PN should be the same for the Edge LE, and Edge 2. If you have the FTP- Edge 1- first generation, it still may be the same.
