It is sometimes frustrating when I am printing vinyl stickers because when I go to cut, the lines are a little off due to the warping of the material when drying. I am using an economy calendared vinyl and am wondering if using a cast vinyl would help (although more expensive). Some materials seem to do well and not warp. Others, like a matte poster that we are using, warp quite a bit. Has anyone else experienced this that can offer some insight on how to reduce this?

material warping on L26500

There is a function that counteracts the warping, but I've never used it because you have to input how much it's warping. From experience this fluctuates greatly and can be different at the start to the finish.
if we're doing lots of small print & cut stuff, we'll divide it into sections, so instead of using the full width and having cut rego marks at the edges, we set it up as 2 columns of 650mm or 3 columns of 400mm, etc. For bigger items, just have to add heaps of bleed.
