  4. Blade gone wacky on cutter

    Yeah, I had to peel that dumb wax off. Could have been a tiny piece left over on it. Uh...Dustin. WTH? Welcome to a print shop. I've had to bust out over 6,000 decals this week, from 2" x 3" to 5' x 5'. Gone through half a set of inks and a plotter blade. I run into glitches all the...
  5. Blade gone wacky on cutter

    Weird.... I just took everything apart, BACKED OUT the blade depth, and the thing is working like a charm. Bizarre... but atleast it's working great again. Don't know what I did differently, but it's cutting like a charm, at the regular pressure, and with the new blade. Was I under a 5 hour...
  6. Blade gone wacky on cutter

    I got it to cut okay...after around 250 test cuts. ouch... But to get it cut properly, I had to set my pressure setting at 30, where before it was always at 23 for that vinyl. WTH? It doesn't make perfect sense to me... Atleast it's cutting though... not right.... but cutting.
  7. Blade gone wacky on cutter

    It's everywhere across the strip, and the strip is fine. The machine is only 4 months old, so I don't have any parts getting old anywhere (unlike my other Graphtec I have).
  8. Blade gone wacky on cutter

    Okay, I have a Graphtec FC7000-100 plotter. I just replaced the blade as my old one was getting dull. I went to cut and noticed that in some parts of the design it was cutting through the paper, and on other parts, it was barely scratching the surface!!! I cannot figure out WTH is wrong with the...

    Um.... Epson 5500? Wide format digital, works best with paper and cardstock, cheaper than solvent printers? Is that kinda like what you're looking for?

    Just out of plain freaking curiosity... what kind of stuff are you thinking of making???? 100 sentences a day? WTH? That makes no sense unless you work for a bunch of the states hospitals or something.??? Just kinda curious here... 24" will be easier on you IMO. I'm a Graphtec fan myself...
  15. Got to make a choice Graphtec or Roland

    I absolutely LOVE my Graphtec (FC7000-100). Awesome machine. I had this like 8 year old Graphtec before I got this one, and that sucker just kept on ticking. No board issues, no problems starting it... seemingly bulletproof. I'm a Graphtec fan through and through. GO GRAPHTEC!

  20. Software Package

    The guy took a couple programming classes in college, learned how to unlock Flexi, and then just burned a million copies of each program, made a label that looks kinda like it should, and is making a living selling the crap on ebay. He's just another run of the mill :software It's okay though...
