Default Re: Plotter not cutting where it should!!!

Joe I have the asc365 with artcut, another no name, so I don't know if this is your problem or not but on mine when you get to the cutter screen there are 2 tabs to put in the size of your vinyl that you are cutting, if those numbers are larger then the actual vinyl then it won't line up because it thinks there is more room to cut then there really is, hope that makes sense.Also mine runs in mil not inches so 25.4 mil equals 1 inch very confusing.
Please keep us posted how it goes.

I open a design in signcut and then I go to the plotter and mark the Origin to be close to the vinyl border (so I dont waste any of it) of course leaving enough space for the wheels and so. The thing is that as soon as I hit Cut out the blade starts moving and the vinyl starts moving forward and the blade starts cutting way outside the vinyl area and way down, not at the beggining of the vinyl roll as I specified. What could be wrong? What is it that I am not doing fine?
I have successfuly cut letters and frases I've done my self, but if I upload an art already made, like a clip art or vector image, it would do what I have just described. I have played with the settings but nothing seems to work.
I will really appreciate any help you can give me. I have a few orders waiting for me to solve this.
THANk YOU!!!
