First of all, thank you very much for your help. I didn't expect to get so much useful information in such a short time. @slice&dice I have already contacted Graphtec Japan, USA, Germany and the Netherlands without receiving any help. As I said, the cutter is in like new condition and has no problems so far. My only problem is controlling the cutting plotter via software. @darcshadow & @Dakotagrafx Thank you for the information. Since my machine no longer receives support from Graphtec and no suitable software, firmware and drivers are offered for it, I wanted to install the firmware for a similar model. After your posts I will now keep my hands off it. @MZ SKEETER That was really useful! Unfortunately, I am not familiar with cutting plotters, as this is my first. I have now looked at both of the proposed software and will probably get myself a license for “VinylMaster Cut”. I will hopefully report on it soon when I have made my first cuts.

Dear community, I am the proud owner of a newly purchased used Graphtec FC2200/90 flatbed plotter from about 1989 to 1992. The plotter is in a generally excellent condition and ready to use. Since I have problems using the Plotter with Adobe Illustrator in combination with Cutting Master 4 Plugin, I would like to know, if it is possible to update the plotters firmware to ‘Plotter Firmware v4.50 for Graphtec FC2250’? I am not sure, weather the FC2250 v4.50 Firmware is suitable for my FC2200/90 plotter. I would also install the ‘Windows Driver OPS662 (v3.90)’ on my Windows Laptop and install ‘Cutting Master 3 for Windows Ver.2.2.1252’ instead of the current version. I would be extremely grateful for any help!!!
