  6. y position alarm

    I have never done this with my FC4100-130... How is it done? I never have too many issues although I am convinced based on how it cuts some days over others with identical material that there must be some sort of electronic issue with cutting quality...rarely happens but can't figure out...

    I called the collection company and asked if they had an address of where the shipment went, and now I see what's going on. I produced a large write on erase cheque (fro FREE) for a charity and the shipping was done by a 3rd party and probably went on their account. Now UPS I guess tried...
  12. UPS put me in collections!!

    Received a letter from a collection agency today stating that I owed UPS money. Oddly enough I never received any calls from UPS or any mail stating that I owed them money. I might actually owe them this huge amount of $18.00 but I am sure it may have been because they overcharged me on...
