We have tried just about every option between Flexi and the cutting controller and can't seem to make it finish its cuts.
Like on a letter, it will cut almost the whole letter perfectly, but when it comes to the last spot it seems to lift up and not cut through the vinyl. There is even a score mark where the blade passed over it but not deep enough to cut through the vinyl.
This is maddening. It does not do this on every letter or design. So you are weeding easily and then pull up a letter or stretch it out before you know it. Why would it be doing this when 80% of the cut weeds great.
The manual says that the blade is too deep. But we have since put a new blade in, calibrated it from graphtec website..adjusted the force up one way and down the other and it still doesn't cut all the way through..sometimes...
If we crank the force up really high it cuts all the way but messes up backing paper and dulls blade.
I should mention that we are using flexi-8 which does not support this plotter, we are running it as a Graphtec FC7000, but we have been running for months like this with no problems.
Oh and sorry about the double post this is the more important one. This is a fluid situation lol.
