jhumbeutel 1 Posted February 7, 2011 My cutter has been freezing up during long cuts. Many of you suggested to get a Keyspan USB serial adapter. So I hooked that up and now it isn't freezing up. However, I noticed that my lettering is all misplaced. Do I need to calibrate something?? Using signcut with a laserpoint 24. Any ideas? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cutme 5 Posted February 7, 2011 no, you need to get a full serial cable and give up on the usb. it will end 99% of your cutter problems. bb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jhumbeutel 1 Posted February 7, 2011 That would be ideal but there is nowhere to plug it into my computer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted February 7, 2011 get and older dektop for a dedicated cutting computer - then just design on the laptop, take it to the desktop that is always ready to cut. no panic when your main computer crashes and you can't cut Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
