Question: Print/Cut Contour on a Graphtec FC8600?

[Electra Sign]

We own a Graphtec FC8600 and HP Latex 570 and run Flexi Sign Pro 12. We are having trouble figuring out how to best align the print with the cutter. We currently align the registration marks and cutter head by eye as best we can. Is there a better way to do this? Thanks for any advice! - Brett

As far as I can tell, that model should have a reader. Check you manual and it should walk you through the procedure.

i use push pins.
in the front grove push the pins through the crop mark and into the groove. lock it in remove the pins ( this is a very important step)
then run a few feet and check the alignment and adjust as needed

Thank you for the feedback! We will look deeper into the manual and give the push pins a go too.
