    My cutter was working quite fine cutting in the right direction. I needed to move my computer so to get a longer cable , I used a usb extension that came with my magic jack and cutter defaulted to mirror cut and top to bottom instead of right to left direction. 

    If I select MIRROR button it cuts unmirrored but backwards and still downward. I removed the extension but it has not resolved. I also tried uninstall/reinstall the cutter but no resolve.

    I have a generic "made in China" cutter. I'm not a professional and I'm on a tight budget. I saw elsewhere that a Keyspan USB/Serial adapter will resolve the issue. I see cheaper ones than Keyspan...will they work? I appreciate any help. Thank you kindly.

    Yep, that's likely yer problem right there, the FTDI FT232R USB cable ---- in general, the recommended way to get cutters and computers to work nicely together with USB/Serial is to hook up a KEYSPAN adapter.

    I'm having the exact same problem. The only difference is I did NOT change computers. It was working quite fine cutting in the right direction until I needed to get a longer cable so I used a usb extension that cam with my magic jack and now cutting mirrored. If I select mirror it cuts unmirrored but backwards. I removed the extension piece but it has not resoled. I have a generic "made in China cutter". I'm not a professional and I'm on a tight budget. I see USB/Serial adapter for cheaper than keyspan...Will they work just the same. I appreciate any help. Thank you kindly.
