FAQs
Does this machine work on Mac computers?
No, the PixMax 9114 is strictly compatible with Windows operating systems.
Can I cut materials other than vinyl?
The machine is optimized for vinyl; however, it can handle various thin media that the blade depth settings can accommodate.
How small can I cut designs?
The plotter is capable of precision cutting for intricate designs as small as 10mm.
What software do I need to use this?
The machine is designed to work with Flexi Starter software, which is included in the bundle.
What is the purpose of the Biro pen component?
It allows you to draft your designs directly onto paper to test paths and alignment before using your vinyl stock.
How often should I change the blade?
Frequency depends on usage and material thickness; replace the blade as soon as you notice ragged edges or incomplete cuts.
Troubleshooting
Vinyl is slipping or not tracking straight
Ensure the pinch rollers are correctly aligned with the grit rollers and the vinyl is loaded perfectly square.
Cuts are not going all the way through the vinyl
Adjust the blade depth slightly or check the force settings in your software; a blunt blade may also need replacing.
Software cannot communicate with the plotter
Verify that all cable connections are secure and ensure you have the correct COM port selected within the Flexi Starter software.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the PixMax 9114 involves assembling the aluminum stand and connecting the plotter to a Windows PC via the appropriate interface. Ensure the machine is placed on a level, stable surface to prevent vibration errors during the cutting process. The unit is designed for use with Flexi Starter software, which serves as the bridge between your design files and the plotter. For care, regularly clean the blade holder to prevent adhesive buildup and wipe down the rollers to ensure media tracks straight. Always replace the protective cover when the machine is not in use to prevent dust accumulation on the optical eye and internal carriage.
