Did you try setting it to "NONE" ?

Where it says "Cut Fast", if you select "NONE" then Flexi shouldn't send any settings to the plotter.

I had the same problem, Removed flexi and reinstalled And fixed the problem. If you did a upgrade, you can call flexi and they will send you a link to a dowload of the software. Oh almost forgot, you might want to try support on website. they have a patch for that problem. I downloaded the patch but didnt fix mine for some reason, maybe it will yours. YOu have to have flexi closed when you download the patch

I have 7.6, but I assume it works about the same way.

Go to the panel that Jamie showed... Click on the "FD" box and the "SPEED" box. They will be grayed out. It will ignore the software and now will be controlled by the plotter. Make sure you set the plotter settings to what you want.

If that doesn't work, before reinstalling the software, Do
a "CLEAR PREFERENCES" It fixes a lot of the weird problems.
You access it from the start menu. You need to close out Flexi to save the changes. If you do a clear preference, you will need to set any preference changes you made since installing the software.
