Here's a link to information about it.

It appears to be a high quality, six color pigment ink 24" printer suitable for doing borderless photos and other printing on available paper stock. I do not see any ability listed that would make it capable of cutting vinyl and doubt that it is intended for printing on vinyl at all.

Canon, a world leader in office imaging systems, ink-jet technology, and digital photography presents a breakthrough in professional large format printing solutions. The imagePROGRAF W6400 24” printer is a large format printing solution for office, photo, and graphic art professionals. Utilizing a pigment based six plus one ink system (interchangeable black ink), a 4-picoliter ink droplet size, and 2400 x 1200 resolution, the imagePROGRAF W6400 produces exceptional quality output. The printer delivers output at extremely fast speeds including four sided borderless prints.

The imagePROGRAF W6400 includes the tools needed to easily Create, Process and Print high quality professional large format output. With software such as PosterArtist, an intuitive template based poster creation software and Digital Photo Print Pro, a photo editing and management program that includes tools to eliminate red-eye, improve skin tones, and remove moiré to digital photos, producing high quality output has never been easier.

Outstanding quality, fast print speeds and included software programs are what make the imagePROGRAF W6400 a breakthrough solution in large format printing.

we had something similar to that at a company i worked as a designer for. It was purchased to print posters for all there customers. I dont recall it being able to do anything. The only cutting that i recall it doing...was cutting the poster after it prints.

I think you should've asked here before you bought it. Me thinkst you've been taken.

You'll be able to fill business card orders quite quickly and colorful posters for indoor use, but I hardly think you're gonna do any printing for the sign industry.
