    I just ordered a Titan  with Vinly LTR. The question I have is how do I use 2 separate computers with the one license? If I have one computer I use to design on and one for the cutter do I have to unregister the computer I am not using then register the other one and vice versa? 

     

    thanks Krank

    Thanks everyone for the help. I just ordered the Titan 2 as they are on sale right now for $745.  I am pretty stoked. 

     

    Thanks again for the help up to this point, I am sure you will be hearing from me in the future.

    usb on the titans are way above the value cutters - all I used was usb the time I had the titan2    - either new or old version of windows should be fine as long as your cutting software is compatible  

    Thank you for that information. I will be using Vinlymaster LTR. I have a laptop that I have already installed Vinylmaster demo on. I will probably just get the upgraded version on that laptop and use that as the one to dive the cutter. It is running windows 10. As long as no one sees any potential problems with the drivers on 10 I should be good then.

     

    thanks again for all of the help it is greatly appreciated.

    Darcshaow, 

     

    Thank you for the information. From what i have read Windows 10 does not work to well with the cutters. I am looking at the titan 2. Would I be better off going with an older computer or a newer one with windows 10?  Also what about the serial connection as compared to a Usb port?

     

    thanks tom

    Thanks to all that helped with my other newbie question.

     

    This time I have a question about a dedicated laptop for the cutter. everything that I read said to get a dedicated computer for the cutter and keep it off the internet. I have been looking at the following computer for this. Also because it has a serial connection. I will be using a different computer for the designs then transfer the file via usb drive.

    Any other suggestions or input would be greatly appreciated.

     

    Thanks Krank

    Thanks everyone for the tips. I have downloaded Vinly master and have started to play with that as well as Inkscape.

    Is the Titan2 worth that much more than the Titan?

    I know it has servos instead of steppers, does they make that big of a difference? I have tried to google the difference but really haven't come up with a head to head comparison.

     

    Thanks Again for al the help Krank.

    Thanks everyone for the input. My plan is to just start with decals and down the road a while maybe dabble into tshirts.  I have downloaded Inkscape and started playing with that while watching tutorials on youtube.

    Any advice on the cutter in the 5-600 dollar range?

    Thanks Darchadow for the info. I was looking at the regular Titan with stepper motors as compared to the Titan2 with servos to save some money. Thanks for the tip on packages.

    I will download Inkscape and play with that to help familiarize myself with Vector images.

    Good morning all,

    I am new to vinly cutting and I am looking at getting starting down this worm hole.

    I want to start making vinly for friends and family and slowly get into selling some on the side to pay off the equipment. Maybe do some shirts. I am looking at getting a Titan 28" for my first cutter. I probably wont need the size at first but want to have the option. 

    Any opinions on a cutter or any help leading me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. I have been doing a lot of reading and the titan is what I think is a good machine in this size and budget.

    thanks again Krank
