i was just in the same situation so i got a fc7000-75 which is 30". if you plan on moving up just crunch and gte the 30, call them they will probably give you a good deal on that too

if you have the Creative suite 3 it comes with illustrator photo shop indesign go live and a barrage of others. Or were you implying that you have PhotoShop CS3 only, that you got bootleg off the net?

perfect, get to know Illustrator if you are getting into signs since its a vector based design program, photoshop is just that working with photos and raster graphics. the two programs are similar in tools as well so not to hard to learn

you can save it in several formats!? Im assuming your new. but the plottre has to have vector lines to tell the knife where to go. I use illustrator, do you have the whole CS2 suite?

Wow, you must be full service to bring in that much!

Haha good point Gino. What made you do with the Mimaki over a Mutoh or Roland?

you could go for a graphtec fc7000 series as well. and i beleive you would have to run a seperate computer otherwise it would be cumbersome and slow.

never used a 30 for anything. 45 for most. 60 for thick and small letters. Some plotters require a diffrent holder as well.

what cutter did you buy and did it come from the california warehouse?

Does it even say Summa on it?

besides the baud rate that has nothing todo with what your cutter is doing. mine cutter did the same thing becasue i had the wrong creation drivers running. also make sure you are cutting the vinyl from the start of the ruler instead of the end.

Check to make sure you have the correct drivers there are two diffrent creation companies.

thanks chopper. i think i have semi settled on the graphtec fc7k becasue of the accuracy and i hope customer support.... gunna price it out esp from advantage sign supply in richmond.. anyone have any experiance?

the d60 looks comparable to my pcut only using better materials, thank you for the link but i think im looking to step up into something heavy duty.

Is getting a better quality amchine going to help with accuracy? i just looked at Summa, they look nice and for quite the money too! what is graphtecs site?

Sorry im not in Canada, im in northern Virginia. Is there any place on the web that compares the pros and cons. i suppose it would be nice to get an optical eye now for when i get into d.printing... but what else do i need to look at as far as the pro cutters go?

Ok, so i have a pcut ( read: POS ) right now its really stressing me out because i am getting bigger jobs and accounts (from my stunning good looks) and my pcut isnt hacking it. it cant cut anything smaller than an inch without looking like crap. I have it adjusted now to cut everything out...
