sturgis88......... It sounds like you bought a plotter as your first and so far - only piece of equipment (including software). And you're wondering what the plotter will do and how to get it to do something ? Or.....are you saying the plotter is broke and that's why you called Graphtec ...

asignstop.....that's a cool idea about running the machine backwards butted up against the wall. I think I'll try that on my older Graphtecs. Rod....heck I was right and didn't know it. You DO have to walk around the back side of your machine and then it will be okay. <joke>

Rod....try standing on the other side of the plotter. It will be right then. (sorry - bad joke)

IMPROVEMENT 1: Did some playing around w/the Ultima today. Increased the 'force' so we could cut prints with laminate. Previously we were cutting it twice. IMPROVEMENT 2: Slowed down the 'tool up' speed which helped a great deal with contour cutting. I don't know why they brag so much...

Very good post Fred. Very true regarding people not really bashing but rather just letting the words fly. I know I certainly do that in abdunance. Buying a cheap off brand machine like Desay maybe one could conclude is a handicap but like one poster said: "If you want it bad enough" then...

It's easy to get caught up in a 'savings' fixation which turns into the idea that you are actually making money. When in fact....buying a cheaper machine does not make you money....at best it only saves you money. But when evaluating 'making money'....that is done using the machine you...

good post Dustin.....thanks for the 411 I have wondered what the difference was btwn the CE and FC models besides price. I suppose it might be down pressure ? Will your CE cut sandblast resist ? Also it's possible the CE will not do advanced functions such as repeat cuts ? And perhaps the...

You email Graphtec tech support........or fax them (sometimes you have to do both bugging them) and they will send to you a link to a .pdf file which includes all the model operators manuals. I'll look later and see if I have the link still and if so........I'll post here. BUDDY

kev b81........ Obviously $500 is a good price for the 3100 plotter if it operates properly. But if you have to send it in for repairs then you're looking at around $600 + or - depending on what type of repairs and shipping costs (shipping is expnsive). So just factor that in. The 3100...

mark in tx....... Where do you get your knowledge of the 3100 series Graphtec ? The 3100 series Graphtec is the all time most reliable Graphtec industrial type machine ever built. It's the CE series Graphtecs that are the light duty and have only come onto the market recently...

Scardino.....can't thank you enough.....just to offer to help is great. Thanks. BUDDY

Our dealer does offer training on the Ultima and ValueJet that is included at no cost with the purchase. The problem is....they don't know how to operate the Ultima.....they are only up to speed on the ValueJet. Our dealer / vendor only recently purchased their own Ultima in order to...
