  1. Need Help Graphtec FC-4100-75 runs out and back 1 metre of vinyl before cut

    I got this sorted, I sat for a few hours went through the menus tried changing things one at a time, firstly I did anything related to page length, no luck at all, eventually I came to "auto pre feed" and didn't really know what it was, it was enabled so I disabled it and it did the job, Thanks...
  2. Need Help Graphtec FC-4100-75 runs out and back 1 metre of vinyl before cut

    I'm sure this must be some sort of setting I am using Flexi and when I send to cut the cutter runs out and runs back in 1 metre of vinyl then performs the cut no problem at all, it is most frustrating when you have cuttings maybe 2 foot long which you can't use. On the machine I found a page...
  3. Is the Gerber GS 15 (Not Plus) Tangental mode Only?

    The pen mode does not allow for the offset of the blade so I don't think that would work. regards Tel
  4. How would you fix push through letters?

    We do exactly the same as Andy D we route a shoulder on the letters or logos or whatever, we work in metric my shoulders would be 10mm wide that's nearly 1/2 inch and have done lots and lots of them and never had a letter fall in, but we make sure we use a good quality 2 pac glue. Also it's an...
  5. Is there a quick and easy way to do this?

    I have had to cut rolls in the past for one reason or another i.e. it was bought for a larger cutter or printer and was now going to be used for a smaller width machine. I marked it and cut it in a chop saw, keeping it straight and pushed tight against the back wall of the machine. I don't know...
  6. Is the Gerber GS 15 (Not Plus) Tangental mode Only?

    We use a GS15plus and it has given amazing service over many many years, I am not sure but I think all Gs15 are tangential and that the swivel only knife version was actually called the GSX15, anyway I have the same manual as shown above can't help you with the hidden button, remember to oil...
  7. Gerber cable or any serial cable?

    we have an old gsx15 plus on a serial cable it's a long cable but not more than 10 foot by any means we use it in conjunction with an edgeLE i think that is an edge 2 and omega 2 and have no problems at all it's a great machine just need a clean and a drop of oil every 6 months.

  8. Line in print Gerber Edge 2

    Tried this yesterday and gave the machine a good clean while I was at it even took the top cover off and checked everything, on test no difference so resigned to the fact that a pixel is on it's way out. Still usable as only the likes of us would notice it, it just leaves a tiny white mark at...
  9. Cutting laminated vinyl - Graphtec FC7000

    We have no problem cutting laminated vinyl, I change the blade holder and use a 0.15 blade which is thicker than the normal 0.09 blade obviously and I change the cutting condition. I have our ce 5000 120 set up with different conditions for normal vinyl with a 0.09 blade through to several...

  12. Line in print Gerber Edge 2

    Thanks for your input I am aware about the 99% ISO alcohol but I use nothing but ThermApprove from Gerber, as running a foot of block color to warm up tried that doesn't make much of a difference, if I was doing a bunch of stickers the first one in the that line would have maybe 1/4inch of white...

  14. Line in print Gerber Edge 2

    Hi Everyone This is a weird one, well it is to me. In the past I have seen what happens when a head gets blocked and a fine white line is left in the prints, in fact used an edge for a few months and avoided that particular part of the head, my problem is I have a line in the...
  15. Ruby Red to Pantone?

    My machine says 1805c for Gerber Ruby red. To get pantone 1797c I would have to use the gerber spectratone pallette and use process magenta (top) and Lemon yellow as base. But I am using an old version of composer version 2 but it tells me gerber ruby red is pantone 1805c. If you go into compser...

  17. VJ 1624 "Scoring material"

    Whoops guys I said the lever should be all the way down for banner and halfway for vinyl my mistake it's the other way about but that's not your problem. As I said earlier we have a 1624 it is only a few months old we get the same thing happening, the 1624 rollers are different material from...
  18. VJ 1624 "Scoring material"

    We have a 1624 and have had this problem, in our opinion its nothing to do with heat settings, we have 3 mutohs and the rollers on the 1624 are softer than the others and they seem to pick up the plastisiser from banner material etc then deposit it on the vinyl also cheap vinyl is a problem and...
