  1. GX24 cutstudio poor graphic trace lines

    Thanks for the replies. I too have been cutting from Corel forever. My question was not about cutting sign vinyl from Corel. Using a Epson with durabright inks, print graphics on ink receptive vinyl. The excess vinyl material in and around the grahic needs trimming. To do this, Cut Studio...
  2. GX24 cutstudio poor graphic trace lines

    Thanks for the reply. So, then is it possible to go completely around cutstudio using only Corel ? If the cutter will read crop marks from Corel, then in theory there would be no need for cutstudio. Cutter could just read a color trace line around graphics. Maybe resolution would have to...
  3. GX24 cutstudio poor graphic trace lines

    I am sure others have this problem too, if not will someone please explain why cutstudio ( trace function ) will not outline detailed graphics precise for cutting. Only outlining squares, circles, rectangles works good. Is there an upgrade for cutstudio that addresses this ? Has anyone tried...
  4. please help I'm new pnc 1100

    I have the GX-24 and PNC 1000A ( earlier version of the pnc1100 ) The PNC 1000A in 15 years, never needed a part, always runs and simple to operate. I use it almost every day. Limitations are 20 inch width. I have designed HUGE complicated files in Corel, exported them in .eps files to...
  5. GX-24 Roll Material Feature Problem

    I use Edge selection. This cuts everytime at the edge of the material. Roll function rolls vinyl out and it is anyones guess where it will cut. It is probably a software setting I am overlooking, but as I don't have a need for using the roll selection, I haven't investigated it anymore...

  7. Vinyl for small desktop inkjets

    Is water slide decal paper really paper or vinyl ? Does water slide decal paper have a backing that will allow a vinyl cutter to cut out the decal ? Thanks,
  8. Vinyl for small desktop inkjets

    Looking for a way to print occasional small decals on vinyl. I have a cheap C88+ inkjet with durabright inks, which makes the brightest and best T shirt prints ever. I have heard of some people using lasers and inkjets on vinyl and if true, then a second vinyl cutter with a electronic...
  9. ROLAND PNC-1000 / service manual / help!

    Arlo, good for you. I never directed any sarcastic or angry remarks against anyone or their cutters of choice. However, I was not rewarded the same respect by several here. Glad you are happy with your 950. Hope it last forever. Hope it makes you 200,000.00 as my old one has. Back to...
  10. ROLAND PNC-1000 / service manual / help!

    I was responding to the original poster. Offering a little support concerning his PNC 1000. I have made 200,000.00 with this old machine and paid ( I think ) 1,800.00 for it. Any machine that has done that for me with never a problem has my loyalty. So far I have not had any problem with...
  11. Getting into Vinyl cutting

    Take your 3 or 4 hundred and find a good used Roland PNC 1000 or 1000a. Buying one from someone you do not know and not getting ripped off might be a trick. I have run a Roland PNC 1000a for about 14 years. Made 200,000.00 with it and never a problem. Had a bad cable recently. It is...
  12. ROLAND PNC-1000 / service manual / help!

    I don't have an answer for the original poster, but I hope you can keep it running. I love my PNC 1000a. Been running perfect for 13 years. Recently bought a new GX-24. By the time I tell the GX what to do, my old PNC 1000a is half way through the job. After 3 days I put the GX back in the...
  13. Time to upgrade my cutter!

    GVGRAPHICS, you have done the right thing not getting the GX-24, worse machine Roland ever built. This board is full of people trying to understand this machine doing things that defy explaination. Example,read the post, " Got to make a choice, Graphtec or Roland " Read post 31 from...
  14. Gx-24 New - Question About Cut Direction

    Worse machine Roland ever built. Get use to it doing things that defy explaination. Don't you just love all the info you must tell this machine before it does something as simple as cutting a single letter. Then watch in horror as it rolls vinyl in and out and the edge detect bounces all over...

  17. Got to make a choice Graphtec or Roland

    I have used a Roland PNC 1000a for 12-14 years and probably made $ 250,000.00. Never had a minutes problem. Simple machine, load vinyl, press cut, when finished the blade moves out the way. Bought a new Roland GX-24, screwed up machine I have ever saw. Never know what it is going to do...
  18. New Thermal Printer/Cutter, 30in. DC4 SX List $12,995

    I would think the summa thermal would be better than head clogging inkjets and all the mess or potential problems asscociated with inkjets. I really don't know as I have never had either one. Just some things I read. I would like to find out about durability and potential problems with heads on...
  19. Versa Camm VS Encad ?

    Thanks everyone, all of you have been most helpful. Don
  20. Versa Camm VS Encad ?

    This may sound like a dumb question, but here goes. What are the major differences ( beside cut feature and price ) is there between Encad 750 and Roland versa Camm 300 ? Will Encad print on as many materials as Roland and can another cutter be used to contour cut the Encad prints ? Price...
