Debbie and Others; The problem was that the little wire that connects to the cutter blade carriage had come off and the cutter blade carriage that moves the knife was not working properly. I had to remove the needle plate, the cutter blade clip the reconnect the small wire to the cutter blade carriage. Then to test, under the Maintenance Tab>Stepper go to the cutter column and test out the cutter. Thanks to the Technical guys at Melco for walking me through this. If any of you get an unexplained Z Axis error, keep this in mind.

But, I have also had to reset design on occasion, but if you do that make sure you write down the stitch # you are on and the position of design!!! Debbie in Martinsville.
