Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted August 17, 2017 I think the problem for me is I was thinking lynx as in the sign warehouse private branded gcc but the only article I can find that mentions this model it appears to have been a chinese plotter with that name also and who knows what drivers they used - I personally would try the old stand by of the roland pnc-1000 drivers that so many of the old chinese plotters used Being the member asking is from the UK the knowledge we have of the lynx cutters sold in the US is kinda leading down the wrong road for us to troubleshoot Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted August 17, 2017 http://allearchiwum.pl/najtaszy_ploter_tncy_lynx1360k-257420620.html ALL info on this model is from Poland domains . . . . That page above mentions using artcut - another red flag IMHO artcut was never usable when I first got started and tried a copy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MZ SKEETER 4,708 Posted August 17, 2017 Did you try choosing in your add set up. the Roland PNC1000 cutter as your vinyl cutter as suggested above? It's a generic driver. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MZ SKEETER 4,708 Posted August 22, 2017 The cutter will only cut a vector,file, which is comprised of nodes,.outlines...ai,.eps, .fs and more vector files. The cutter will not cut a raster image, which are pixals. like a jpeg or bitmap.If that is not the answer you are looking for, then please explain more.
