 Try applying Flatten Paths before sending to the cut window. Select your shapes, click on the wrench
icon at the bottom of the screen, and select Flatten Paths from the pop up menu.

 Try changing the COM Port that has been assigned.

My cut starts but stops during the cut with the blade holder sitting in the spot where it stopped cutting. I’m very
sure that it’s not going out of range. I am using a Mac computer to run the Wine version of MTC.
 There is a setting called Data Throttle which can be used to fix this. In the cut window, click on the
small wrench icon next to “Klic-N-Kut Model”. You will find a tab to the right of the Baud Rate
Information tab called Throttle Data. Select that tab and drop the Pause to 3. Try again and you may
need to drop it to 2. If you continue to have problems, try increasing the ms from 10 to 15.

Operating Issues

My mat is rotating when the KNK starts to cut!

 Both pinch wheels need to be gripping the mat. Move the mat either left or right so that it is under both
wheels.
____________________

The rollers are ripping the top layer of my material.
 It’s important to keep the rollers clean of adhesive. Use Un-Du or Goo Gone to thoroughly clean the wheels.
Then either make sure the wheels are always over the material you are cutting or place strips of paper
where the wheels will be crossing the mat.

Some of the buttons are hard to use on the control panel. I have to press really hard to get them to work.

 There is a tutorial available for fixing that. It’s very easy to do and will make a big difference:

At low pressures the blade doesn’t touch the surface.

 That is correct. Simply increase the force, as necessary, to get a good test cut.

The KNK stops cutting when the screen saver comes on.
 This can happen with some computers. Turn off the screen saver before cutting.
