plotter

I had a smaller Graphtec before I would change the force in the middle of cutting, simply by pressing "Condition" on the plotter. Easy. Now with my FC 8600, when I press condition while it's cutting, nothing happens. Why??

Up for sale here is one, Graphtec Cutting Pro FC7000-75 plotter/cutter, which I am selling for $500. I am the original owner. I make a few signs part-time, so this plotter has seen light use. For cutting out lettering and graphics in cut vinyl, it works great. No problems. A few years ago...

Hi, can the gsx cutter can also cut like in the video?? (both sides for punch out or perf cutting) i would like to have my decals punched out and cutted... thank you

Hello All - I currently have an FC8600 that we've had for about 5 years. We purchased it from a company online (US Cutter) and the support has been non-existant (which I kinda expected from them, they are pretty much just an online company, not a distributor with local support, etc.). We've...

We have to make a couple of large street name signs for a Signal Project. One sign is 2' by 11' and the other one is 2' by 7ish'. Anyways, we normally outsource this but i was wanting to do this in-house. I laid the White HIP on an aluminum sheet and then plotted some green electrocut. First...

Anybody know where I can find parts for a gerber gs 15? I need the black plastic cover that goes over the knife. And I also need two screws. Thanks for your help.

I'm using FineCut8 on Illustrator (and have just downloaded FineCut9 trial to see if there's any difference, and there's not) When placing registration marks, the option to add intermediate registration marks is greyed out and unavailable to click... Any help or ideas on why this is happening &...

I have a Graphtec FC8600 and I am using Flexi 12. When I send a cut it gives the message OFF SCALE. Plotter just stops there. I have tried: Rebooting both computer and plotter (both several times) Different files, as simple as just plotting ABC. Deleting and reinstalling driver in Flexi manager...

I have a part time business engraving death dates on headstones and I use a gerber gs 15 for my stencil needs. It cuts the dates on the stencil but the head doesn't pick up off the stencil after cutting each letter and number. Therefore, it makes dragging cuts as it's going from one letter or...

I cannot get the pressure right on my plotter. It seems to change pressure throughout the job, so it will cut the outside of an "O" no problem, but then the inside of the same "O" will be barely even scored. We just ran a test cut that sampled all shapes, big letters, and small letters; It did...

Guys, I made a post not long ago about the Summa at our shop tweaking out and shooting out the roll of vinyl either forward or backwards. We fixed that issue when it comes to just plotting vinyl but now i'm having issues contour-cutting. I have to plot (250) decals for a local dealership so...

Hey guys, I have had this summa plotter probably for less than a year. It has recently started acting up. Whenever i put in a new roll, it goes through all of its starting motions but then it either tries to unwind the whole roll or it shoots it out the back. The rolls just keep on going until...

Hey everyone, We're new to owning a Graphtec/using a plotter for digital prints and not just cut vinyl. The model we have is the 64" FC8600 and we've had it for only a couple months after buying it at the SGIA. I'm now starting to play with it so that I know the functions well and won't have...

I have been using an Ioline Studio 7 for about 15 years with Flexisign and it has recently started acting up. I would love to step up to a wide printer / plotter, but could use some suggestions. When I see a printer that advertises contour cuts, is that similar to my Ioline, or super basic...

Hello I have a small 2 man sign shop in Everett, Wa 98204. We have been running an old copy of Flexi Sign Expert 6 or 8 maybe? It was one of the last releases that came with the printer port HASP device. I remember when we bought the software Windows 2000 just came out and not long we upgraded...

Happy Friday, Easy question. Vinyl Express plotters, Do you have one or did you have one? Are they any good? Does SignWarehouse provide good support? Thanks.

We are trying to figure out how to clean the eyepiece for a Gerber Envision Plotter. We had one that broke and glued it back together just fine but now there is something on the lens. Not sure what solution I can use to clean it. Or if anyone knows a company that sells these pieces that would be...

Over the years I have outsourced my cut vinyl and graphics which have mostly been applied to vehicles or interior walls. I have ever had anything more than about 15" wide. I don't do a ton but enough to justify a piece of equipment, maybe used. Any suggestions? Should I print on my flatbed and...
