Guest Dr_Jeff Posted November 6, 2008 a friend of mine has a sign warehouse lynx 24, & he runs i thru some software LXi8. There is no windows print driver installed for this cutter, it works thru the LXi8 software. What windows print driver works with this unit ? Will it work with the Roland PNC-1000 driver ? Thanks in advance, Jeff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ms_sign 5 Posted November 6, 2008 The Lynx is a serial cutter. LXI8 is private labeled Flexi Sign from SAI. Its just rebranded. Check here for drivers. http://tinyurl.com/5c7xet Jon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Dr_Jeff Posted November 6, 2008 it is currently hooked up to his computer with a parallel cable, the unit has parallel, serial & usb connections on it, I would like to hook it up with a parallel cable attached to jetdirect box so it can be a network device, in order to accomplish this there must be a windows print driver installed, then the port can be redirected to the jetdirect device.

Guest Dr_Jeff Posted November 6, 2008 Yes, I will try them today, & report back with the results, thank you very much. Help is always appreciated. Thanks for your super fast response, like ten minutes after my first post, wow, I had poked around the signwarehouse website with no luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Dr_Jeff Posted November 6, 2008 I downloaded the drivers that were identified for the Lynx 24, I installed the drivers, the cutters that were supported were a 30 a 60 & 132 inch cutters, not a 24, I tried the 30 & 60 inch driver cutters, upon trying to cut, the job left the application, went into the spool for the driver, left the spool, the cutter never moved, it seemingly received nothing. I tried a HPGL driver, the cutter head went to the left & the error light came on. Any other ideas ? Thanks, Jeff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vinyl Guy 0 Posted November 27, 2008 Does anyone on the boards have any knowledge on this cutter? We have one at my work. It is a good cutter. Very quiet. How do I get it to stop it from feeding about a foot an a half in the start up before cutting. I would like to hit send then it will cut not bring some out first.
