I've found a Graphtec fc3100-120 for sale by a person who has never used it. She's had it for 2 years and was told ALL it needed was a blade holder.
I'm wondering...if it has sat idle (covered in plastic) for 2 years, what more could it need besides the blade holder and blade. She knows nothing about the machine and is not a sign maker. She received it as partial payment for work she did for a sign maker. Should I be concerned about belts, etc? If so, what kind of expense might i get into just getting it up and running? Also...I've been out of the sign world for 5 years...what kind of RIP program will i need? (inexpensive preferrably) I use Adobe CC (creative cloud) for graphics...what will work? Thanks in advance
