  2. Question Envision 375 cutting “issue”

    What tool are you using? Do you put transfer paper on top of print before cutting? Are you using registration dots to line up print for cutting? I have seen this before when the vinyl stretches and doesn't line it up correctly.

    If you are cutting more vinyl and material that is more knife focus I would stick with a machine that does knife first and router second. CWT Colex and MultiCam Celero are much faster then a router with a knife like the Apex 1R.
