Why does the tool condition change on my GRAPHTEC CE6000?
If the tool condition changes unexpectedly on your Graphtec Plotter, it could be because the setting of the priority is set to PROGRAM. Change the setting of the priority to MANUAL. Also, ensure that you press the [ENTER] key after changing the TOOL CONDITION; double-check the TOOL CONDITION again to confirm.
What to do if the GRAPHTEC CE6000 control panel LED doesn't light up?
If the control panel LED lamp does not light up or the LCD on your GRAPHTEC Plotter displays nothing, several issues could be the cause. First, ensure the power cord is securely connected to the plotter's AC line inlet. Next, check that the FPC908202 flexible cable is securely connected to both the main board and the control key board; if not, connect it securely. If the cable is broken, replace it. Verify the AC line electrical output is correct; if not, change the AC line. Check if the power supply unit has a 5V output; if not, replace the power supply unit. If none of these steps resolve the issue, consider replacing the main board.
How to fix a GRAPHTEC CE6000 with a blank LCD panel?
If nothing is displayed on the LCD panel of your Graphtec Plotter, it could be due to a lack of power supply or a defect in the plotter. First, check that the power cord is securely connected to both the plotter's AC line inlet and the electrical outlet, and ensure that the electrical outlet is supplying power. If the problem persists, contact your Graphtec customer center.
Why does the blade fall out of the tool plunger on my GRAPHTEC CE6000?
If the blade falls out of the tool plunger on your Graphtec Plotter, it means the blade is too small for the tool plunger. Use a blade that fits securely in the tool plunger.
What does command error mean on GRAPHTEC CE6000?
If the Graphtec Plotter displays a command error, it means the data sent to the plotter is not correct. Check the data to ensure it is properly formatted and compatible with the plotter.
Why can't my GRAPHTEC Plotter cut above a certain length?
If your Graphtec Plotter cannot cut above a certain length, it means the length of the cut is exceeding the page length set on the plotter. Press the [FAST] key to check the cutting area and match the setting for the page length.
Why is my GRAPHTEC Plotter making abnormal noises during cutting?
If you experience abnormal noise from the tool carriage during cutting or notice the media is discolored where the blade has passed on your Graphtec Plotter, it's likely that the media is being rubbed by the tip of the tool plunger. Adjust the blade length and the cutting FORCE settings to resolve this issue.
Why does my GRAPHTEC CE6000 Plotter drop media while detecting?
If your Graphtec Plotter drops the media while detecting, it could be due to bright light shining onto the media sensor. Block the light if there is direct sunlight shining on the plotter, especially if it's placed near a window. If there's a fluorescent lamp close to the plotter, move it away. If the issue persists, the media sensor may be defective; contact your sales representative or the Graphtec call center. You can temporarily set the media sensor to DISABLED to continue using the plotter.
Why are the cutting results different from the specified size on my GRAPHTEC CE6000?
If the cutting results differ from the specified size on your Graphtec Plotter, it could be because the STEP SIZE has been set differently on the computer and the plotter. Ensure that the STEP SIZE is set to the same value on both devices. Additionally, check whether scaling has been specified on the computer, as this can also affect the final size.
Why is it hard to weed after cutting on my GRAPHTEC CE6000 Plotter?
If the media can be cut but is hard to weed afterward, or if cut media cannot be pulled up using a retack sheet on your Graphtec Plotter, it could be due to several reasons. The retack sheet may not be sticky enough, so try switching to a stickier one. Media entanglement during cutting can also cause this, so reduce the blade length. Additionally, promptly weed cut media, as postponing cleaning can make it harder.
