MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted March 13, 2011 Printing directly from Ai from a Mac through USB… is it possible? MH871 here. printing or cutting? If cutting, no, You need a cutting software like Flexi, Signblazer, Sign cut etc. Ai is design software only. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stetson5331 80 Posted March 13, 2011 is it possible to print directly from Ai from a Mac through USB… ? MH871 here. You can cut fro AI if you install the CM@ plug in so I am told..And yes it's a design program but Graphtec designed the plug in to cut with it.. Hope it helps..I don't use the plug iin so maybe someone that does will chime in.. stetson5331 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cutter-nutter 0 Posted March 14, 2011 Thanks stetson5331 I looked at the requirements for that CM plugin and for another plugin offered by a French gentlemen, but they do not seem to mention the MH871 or any US Cutter models. Is the MH871 likely to work with either of these? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cuttingmaster is a Flexi product that Graphtec puts with their Graphtec cutters, it is a cutting program only, Roland put CutStudio, another Flexi product for the Roland cutters.

stetson5331 80 Posted March 15, 2011 Thanks Skeeter for the info.. DO you know if it will work with the cutter mentioned? I use Flexi but not the CM plug in, so I am not sure on that one... Thanks stetson5331 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks stetson5331 no, it is software for Graphtecs and Rolands, I do not own a USCUTTER vinyl cutter and it has to be used on Gp-gl mode on the cutter. Most regular vinyl cutters are Hp-gl. The Graphtecs and Rolands have a means of changing the mode on the machine to which software you are using. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
