    I run five graftec 8600-130, one 8600-160 and a 9000-140 and only do straight through and kiss cuts all in the channel not on the strip. So there is no need to stop the cutting and change the blade position to do different style cuts on the same job. Every style/brand, laminated or not...

    I've had similar cutting issues on a graftec. To resolve 90% of the problems, I increased the size of the bar code to large and shaded the shop lights from reflecting on to the barcode on the printed vinyl. I figured this out by closely watching my cutters read its marks.
