|
|
| I just picked up a used Gerber Fastrack 650. I use Signlab 7.1. For some reason after i have designed my image and go to cut it it scales it down 2.5 times its size......ie if the the image to cut is 10\" x 20\" on my monitor in signlab by the time its sent and cut on the plotter it is only 4\"x 8\" its a pain. Has anyone run into this before and if so can it be corrected. i never had this issue on my old signmaker IV |

Your plotter can be set for 1016 or 2540 steps per inch.
You can change it on the plotter or
go to cut/plotting defaults and press Setup
Go to the 3rd tab called Plotter options
Put a check in EDit Resolution.
Change it from 1016 to 2540 |
