Jimbo 0 Posted September 19, 2021 I'm retired, and don't make many signs. My old computer that I've used for years has finally died. I'm switching to a laptop, and I've installed Sure Cuts Alot 3. My question; How difficult is it to get the MH871 to cut with Sure Cuts alot3? What tricks are there? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slice&dice 2,450 Posted September 19, 2021 If it works with that cutter, it works. What are you asking? Personally, you would be better off by ordering the $50 VinylMaster program, it's more versatile and robust, with a great Vectorization tool (converts images to cuttable files). Or, even SignBlazer Elements (Hybrid version 7.0.0 -- using RedSail model for your cutter). Here is the Serial emulation USB driver --- http://www.uscuttersupport.com/downloads/Drivers/cdm20828_setup_windows.exe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Make sure you also install the usb chipset driver on the new computer so the plotter can communicate with whatever cutting software you use Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
