    The latest firmware update is from 2015. You basically never need to update firmware on your plotter. Graphtec hasn't updated it's plotter firmware for 3 years.
  3. Graphtec cutting diagonal line through entire print!!! WTF!

    This happens to us occasionally. When you hit the cancel just be ready to lift the pinch rollers. As soon as you lift the levers the cut stops. You can usually stop within the first decal.

    Use edge guards on EGP, AEGP, HIP, DG, VIP DG and always put on the take up reel. No problems after that. EG is an definite no go. No matter the drying temp or the amount of optimizer you use, it will not adhere. If you think your nail doesn't scratch it. Take some water and a paper towel...
