Re: HOW TO? Print and cut like "WYSIWYG" mode (SCAL3 3.046)

when using a black cat or silver bullet, Scal will put the reg marks a set distance from the cut lines. this means they can move if using score lines and then a cutting outline. one way around this is to put a rectangle around the whole thing, this will force scal to put the reg marks around that s...

HOW TO? Print and cut like "WYSIWYG" mode (SCAL3 3.046)

Hello, (SCAL3 3.046 + BC Pro) I often do print-and-cut (contour cutting) where I make two passes: one for scoring, and one for cutting. Each pass is a layer that I turn off and on. However, because the score and cut lines occupy different positions, the origin point of the cut starts in a different ...

Detect and correct for rotation and scale in contour cuts

I'd like to see SCAL3 detect and correct for rotation and scale differences when calibration for contour cuts. This would fix these problems: 1) Printer error: A sheet from a printer can come out misaligned (not square) to the edge of the paper. 2) Human error: placement of the paper and mat relativ...

Re: Print and cut - doesn't print

OK, this is now happening a lot. For no apparent reason, it won't print; just spits out a blank sheet of paper, until I reboot.

Re: Print and cut - doesn't print

Make sure the orientation is set to Vertical and see if that will work. Thanks, I double-checked and the printer settings are set to "portrait" as opposed to "landscape." I also ran some tests with the other file I was printing from today, it does noe print anymore. I don't know...

Print and cut - doesn't print

I am aware of the other threads with a similar topic, but there seems to be an issue. Shapes set to "print and cut - print" are not printing. These are shapes created right in SCAL3, with a color fill, but no stroke. When I print, using either the print dialog, or the print-and-cut dialog,...
