What is uni-convertor and do i need it?

I just hooked up my first cutter, the Graphtec ce500-60 and I can't get it to work.

mac mini with snow leopard.

What seems odd (remember I don't know anything about any of this) is the Cutting Master 2 1.60 that came with the cutter won't open any files; .ps or .esp or .pov ect.. I don't know what to do. They are not highlighted/selectable

When I try to do the test cut, the cutter says "HP-GL Error 1"

Help, I want to cut something....

Cutting Master 2 is a plug in for Adobe Illustrator or corel Draw - you would need one of those to use it.

go to Graphtec america site and download robo master and I think that will let you cut

I downloaded Illustrator cs4 trial.

I managed to send a file through the plug in to cutting master.

the plotter just goes, rrrrruuuummmm. ok that was dumb but it just sounds like a fan fires up for about 2 seconds, then nothing.

I really can't offer more than that as I use flexi - never played with the plug in or robomaster

well, trial and error pays off.

I changed the plotter command to gp-gl instead of hp-gl and it's cutting.

me so happy :thumbsup:
