Was trying to run a hat last nite...first one was crooked (our fault) and I
also didn't like what the lettering did- .18 high but so thin it was
terrible. Went in and increased lettering, added centerline underlayment,
and pull comp to 110.
Second hat, missed a color change but getting better! (had combined some
detail to get less color changes and forgot to delete that excess color
change)
Beefed up the lettering some more, and went to 3rd hat...(this design is
fire dept. Maltese Cross) after the 'main' outline of the 'maltese' was
done-it went to color #2 for the 'fire hydrant' and then came to a dead stop
before it started the 2nd color. Error message came up- 'color step index'
error or something like that? Tried the red button stop and restart, still
get the error, couldn't get it to 'move' to another color to get around that
one. Shut off the Amaya, restarted, finally got it to go to color 2 and
started it up-and now the hat was an inch off.
Gave up, shut it down. Any ideas on what that error message refers to or
what caused it?
Only have to do ONE hat for a sample...
