Hi Everyone, I'm looking for a bit of advice/info. I have an old Junior plus that I would like to get up and running. The problem is I dont have the drivers and I cant seem to find them anywhere. I have tried contacting Mutoh but have had no reply. I bought a Prolific USB to Serial, It seem...

Is there a free plugin to be able to cut straight from Illustrator to a Graphtec FC7000 plotter? Any advice or info would be helpful...... thanks!

I bought a used jaguar that was a floor model and came with the software cd but no activation code. Is there anyway to get it on the secondary market? I have scpro for straight vinyl cutting and it can do contour cut but not without crashing. Would like to have another way to do contour...

I am looking at maybe purchasing a procut servo 4800 from cutterpros.com Has anyone ever used one of these. I am also considering a vinyl express q30 but the price is a lot more but yes i know a better plotter. This is just about the procut plotter for the time being.

Short Version: We need a new plotter. Not interested in any Graphtec, and I'm skeptical about Mimakis. Thanks in advance. Long Version: I have officially lost patience with our Graphtec. After owning the thing for maybe five months it's broken down three times, and we don't even use it that...

I have a 24 inch plotter but have a job that requires me to make a 4foot by 10foot vinyl design. i have made larger images on a printer by printing in sections and was wondering if something like that is possible with a plotter.

I have located a used Graphtec FC7000-130 several states away and I am interested in purchasing it. The seller is willing to help package the plotter, but he is not a carpenter. My question is, what is the best way to ship these things? I'm guessing it weighs 130 lbs. Will UPS ship it? Is it...

Im having some trouble with my gsx, hoping someone can give me a suggestion or two. When I try to skew backwards the drum will not go in reverse. It will roll forward with no issues. It almost sounds as if it is jammed however I do not see anything blocking it from rotating. Any help would b...

Hi All, Im new here. I have acquired this plotter from a sign writer friend. It died on him many years ago and he had it sitting in storage. I do have an electronics engineer to hand to repair it but needs some help identifying the blown part. We're pretty sure it is the power supply that...

HI Folks, I have a question for y'all regarding the "origin" as it relates to the Graphtec. I am currently using the FC8000-130. I'm cutting sandblast resist. Before I cut the resist, I like to run the plotter with the pen over the design to make sure the design is what I want before cutting...

My Plotter has been freezing up either after or during it's cross cut routine or if I ask it to plot weed lines. Seems to cut normally(so far) but I'm having to cycle power after almost every plot. Ideas?

Hi there, We have a Mimaki CG160FX plotter at the moment but are unable to get it to communicate with the host computer. The machine appears to be in good working order, and was acquired during the buyout of another company. So far we have been able to set up finecut 8 with illustrator...

I have a Oddesy Plotter that is not operational. Tech tells me it needs a new head. Anyone know where to get used parts or is there anyone interested in the plotter for spare parts. It is taking up space in the warehouse. Email brian@squareonesigns.com

Hi folks, I really wanted to see the designs for my newest lantern project reach people who had a cutter/plotter and so I figured this would be a good place for a plug. I made this Quasicrystal Star Lantern with a Craft Robo Pro but they can probably be made with just about any vinyl cutter...

I have no idea what is wrong. I spent all today on the phone with graphtec and Hp and no luck. I print using an hp l25500 and then cut it with a Graphtec Fc8000-160. The cut on the left and right side of the material is correct and the center is off. I tried adjusting the pressure of the...

I am having an issue with my plotter. Yesterday, a fellow employee used the Cut/Plot option in flexi to plot out a menu board. Normally, all of our cutting is done through the Rip/Print option and selecting Contour job only. Later in the day, when we returned to cut another job, the plotter...

Hi. I have a problem with my Mimaki JV22-160 plotter. Ever since I got it, I'm getting random I/F Board Error 20 errors. On the manual here's the explanation for this kind of error: "Improper operation has been conducted on the operation panel". Here's my setup: PC: Pentium Dual-Core...

Hello all, I'm looking at getting me a roland plotter or a printer/plotter. In my research I came across a company, myplotters.com. They have a nice professional looking website and great prices. However, there is NO contact information for them at all. No phone number or email. The harder I...

I was wondering what is going to be a good plotter software? I am currently outputting digital prints using a mutoh through onyx.

Hi friends, Need your help in purchasing an optical sensor plotter. All the jobs I do are vinyl print and cut stickers. Currently using my old Roland SC-545 print and cut machine for cutting the printouts of another eco-solvent machine that I purchased to increase my production. My problem...
