  1. Edge FX Cassette Not Aligning - Take-Up Roller Not Turning.

    Good morning all from a wet UK My Gerber Edge FX has a problem! When I insert a cassette the take-up roller is not being 'engaged' into the drive gear (hope I explained that adequately) The drive engagement should happen when the cassette lowers for printing - I believe a push mechanism on the...
  2. Best Printers to replace Gerber Edge?

    We have used a Gerber Edge in our business for decades, but the process for replacing the print head when a pixel goes out is just too cumbersome and expensive. We have an FX now, but we have had 1s and several 2's through the years. We use the Edge mainly to print white on color vinyl. We...
  3. Gerber Edge Printhead Needed

    We have a Gerber Edge FX with a printhead pixel starting to go out. We have had this problem with an Edge, Edge II and with the Edge FX about 3-4 times in the past 12 years and I have always been able to avoid the absurd (to me at least) process and expense for buying one from Gerber. Between...

  5. Vinyl with bad sprocket holes - (too close together)

    Has anyone else run into this problem? Occasionally, vinyl for the Gerber Edge FX has a bad punch pattern. We have received rolls where the sprocket holes are too close together, causing feed issues with the vinyl and foils. We have run into this from more than one vinyl manufacturer. Just...
  6. Gerber Edge Ii, Envision And Composer 5.1

    We recently purchased some assets from another company that closed their doors. They had an EDGE FX setup so we were able to upgrade from our EDGE II setup and are now selling it off. Both our EDGE II and the Envision have been close to bombproof for us. We bought them in August 05 and replaced...
  7. Edge FX print issues

    Hi all, Been using the edge FX for quite a few years now but recently it's started printing a line of colour when the foil starts printing. For example the print will feed the vinyl through until the place to start printing and it will create a thin line of the colour before the printed piece...

  9. Gerber Edge FX Alignment Issue

    I have a Gerber Edge FX and Omega 5 software. Recently when I try to print "output by layer" the alignment is way off from the first layer to the second (about 1.125"). When I print with everything on one layer the alignment is fine. This job I have to print out on separate layers. (trying to...
  10. Edge FX Fatal Error 630

    ​Our Edge FX has been giving us a "fatal error 630" every time we try and print something. The head will lower, act like it's about to print, and then raises the head and then gives us the error. Gerber tech has replaced: motherboard, clutches, z motor, chassis cable, and it still gives the...
