Your local or Regional OI&T office and contact the appropriate evaluation officeĭisplayed in the notes below the decision matrix. Cruces de corte en vinyl express lxi 12 software#.Thanks, Bart and dmoore, I really appreciate ya'll getting that done up nicely.Īs Bart had requested, any others going to a vinyl cutter with VCarve or Aspire, please do post your results. Now that Bart and dmoore have worked out VCarve/Aspire post processor, I'll be able to use the cutter, using the familiar interface in Aspire. She has gone nuts making vinyl stick-ons for all kinds of things, and sandblasting glass plates, T-shirt screen prints using cutouts for friskets, etc, using the LXI software. However, X/Y is sufficient, for now, and I cut my fiber washers, using the inch conversion version of Bart's post processor, which is a slight variation of 'dmoore' s post, using 1016 divisions per inch, instead of 1015.Īnd probably many others, all from the same factory, in various widths.Īll appearing the same except for the name decal.Īs to capability, quite pleased.

I don't know what all HPGL commands this plotter does respond to, but it appears to ignore AA and CI. In my test C++ program, I ran a CI circle command which didn't draw a circle.

Great, I found that Bart had written a post processor to make HPGL code using only X/Y, no arc commands. This particular plotter apparently ignores AA. I found in my Aspire 8.5 a post processor for the cutter, so I inspected it to see it use the AA HPGL command. The cutter/plotter data interface is HPGL, ancient, yet functional.
#VINYL EXPRESS LXI EXPERT SOFTWARE REVIEW DRIVER#
I found the driver online, same as on her distribution CD. I wrote a program using Borland C++ Builder 5 to write HPGL to the vinyl cutter to find out the printer's interface. It also happened that I needed to cut a pair of fiber washers from gasket material, for a machine I am building. It so happened that she needed to travel this week, and she took her laptop, with the software. This particular software locks to the installed machine, and must be un-installed to move it to another machine, max 5 transfers. This cutter comes with Vinyl Express LXi Expert 12 vector drawing/cutting/plotting software. Old post, but someone will cross this topic again.Ī few weeks back, I purchased, for my wife, a 31" Vinyl Express R-Series II from SignWarehouse, a cutter/plotter. I think Vectic is missing the boat by not adding in a few other simple post processors for all those other common cutters (USCutter,p-cut) - because anyone who has used expensive and poorly written applications like Flexi that are cutter specific, understands how nice it is to have one more value add function in Vectric products.

Otherwise it works great - I can even print directly from VCarve Pro using the "Output Toolpaths" function.

025*40 = 1mm or 0.0393701 inches.Ĭan anyone explain why you have to even put a multiplier in if you change the "UNIT" to inches and why is the "constant". From what I can tell, the default mutliplier of 40 is against some "constant" of. I'm not 100% sure that the 1015 multiplier is 100% correct but it appears to be. So after some investigation and a review of the Post Processor Guide ( ) and then some work in excel, I discovered if I changed: The plotter "talks" HPGL but when I changed the "UNITS" to "INCHES" it didn't cut correctly, it was cutting very very small.

So I went out and found a Graphtec FC5100 (48") cutter in great shape for the crazy price of $500 (heck, cheap Chinese cutters are this much in 48").
