The download is on graphtec's website and it's under support/downloads somewhere. I run it from CS3 here and it's a life saver for me. I couldn't get my old software to run a newer plotter I acquired. CM2 saved the day.

We rip pdfs from corel all day that go straight through our rip and out to the printer.

i'm finding a ripped pdf from corel has zero problems w/ these issues.

If the trailers were new and the rears were not full coverage reflective that's actually a decent days pay for two guys. I used to do heaps of this type of stuff and people freaked out about it then too.

what's the big loss?

you can't weld all of it in your vinyl software? you can always add the slightest outline to the illustrator file and see what that does.

it's Sofia/Letterhead Fonts I believe

I was a diehard flexi user until over the last 3yrs I migrated more towards Illustator (more freelance graphic design work). After some concrete instruction I'm trying to get rid of Flexi permanently and just run Illustrator/Photoshop.

I'm ditching my version of flexi and using master cut instead. Seems to be panning out.

I'm trying to track down a manual so I can reset it.

I'll clean the sensors. It's definitely not on sheet. I've used a larger version of this plotter for many years now.

The problem seems to lie in my software (i'm guessing). I don't have the budget to upgrade to a new version right now, I need to find make this work.

I can get it to plot on 'sheet' but it advances to the middle of the piece and only cuts a portion of it.

Signwarehouse LXI v6.6 Graphtec FC5100-75 Plotter does test cuts fine from production manager and from the plotter. On either Roll 1 or Roll 2 it just feeds the roll out w/ out cutting. the version of LXI I have is so old the 5100 isn't even in the menu, so I've got it on the 4100. I've...

thank you very much fellas, i'm going to put this stuff into practice come monday.

On this particular banner, I flattened the shadow w/ it set to a transparent background and it gave me a nice fat white rectangle around my shadow. I'm at a loss. I was under the assumption that if i rasterize the file to a .tif I'm losing my tagged pantone colors for the rip to recognize.

Background info: Mutoh Vjet / Onyx Productionhouse / CS4 When building print files w/ various effects I find that 3/4s of the time I'm getting problems when I RIP my files for output. Can anyone recommend transparency settings for digital ouputs? More often than not I rasterize the files...

I'll source something appropriate. I've seen mimaki's JV3 with a vent system, I was hoping I could pick that up, but it's probably worlds cheaper to source my own stuff.

we're printing pretty steady most of the day on ours and w/ the ecosol inks it's getting bad. I need to rig up some vents/fans. Valentino, you got any links to the fans you used?

Our design and rip stations are in pretty close proximity to our printer and we're usually dizzy by midday from the fumes. I see a provision for a vent on the rear side cover of our machine. Anyone venting theirs outside at all?
