MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted August 27, 2020 Did you activate the cutting software? Most demo software will do this. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haumana 1,220 Posted August 28, 2020 the marks/slashes are typical for cutting software that's still in trial mode. if you're looking for free software, download and install Sign Blazer Elements. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Julz82 0 Posted August 28, 2020 Thank you so much, I'm trying to download sign blazer elements but I can't find a link it keeps saying it's not available. Is vinyl master the same? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is vinyl master the same? http://www.uscuttersupport.com/downloads/Software/SignBlazer/ Disable your antivirus. It is virus free, however, it is also abandon ware due to the fact that it's creator has passed away a while ago. In order for everyone to use it (beyond trial mode), the program has been altered a little and antivirus programs will flag is as harmful. As long as you get this piece of software from the USC site, it is virus-free. Once installed, you can re-enable the virus protection. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slice&dice 2,450 Posted August 28, 2020 The Directory linked above has two different SignBlazer installers, the first one is NOT what you want, use the third one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Is vinyl master the same? So, now you have a good, working copy of SignBlazer, but you also asked about VinylMaster. In functionality, yes, they are the same, meaning they both do vector graphics design and and also communicate with the cutter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Julz82 0 Posted August 28, 2020 Thank you all for all the advice, i appreciate it! Ive downloaded SignBlazer but now my issue is that my cutter is not listed in the drop down menu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted August 28, 2020 People are using the Redsail driver for the MH cutter. Signblazer has not been updated for many years. Owner passed away years back. Why didn't you activate the software that you were using before?. It would have been more updated than Signblazer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
