Didn't you also get a year license to Signcut pro with your machine? There is a video on the USCutter laser point 11 site for contour cutting with Signcutpro

You didn't answer the question. Didn't you get a 1 year license for Signcutpro with your vinyl cutter?. .Signcutpro is not a disc. What help desk? Surecuts Alot or UScutter?

This is right from the Laser Pointer11 ad. On the UScutter website

Bundled Software included: A 1 year license for SignCut Productivity Pro, a versatile cutting software. SignCut Productivity Pro is cutting software and not design software, it works in conjunction with a variety of popular design platforms, including Adobe Illustrator, CorelDRAW, and the FREE design program InkScape. This cutter is also compatible with SignBlazer Elements cutting software, available as a free download from the support section of USCutter's website.

This will work with your laserpointer

I was under the impression that cuts alot pro was able to contout cut when I asked there support they told me to call us cutter. thanks for the help I will check in after I drive home from work thanks again.

From what I have heard from others about Signcut, You license # is on your paper work, or on your confirmation email.

You just go to Signcut.com and download the software, then enter your 1 year license number.

SCAL Pro you go to file > Print, then make sure "Print Registration Marks" is selected... then when you go to "Print+CUT" in the cut dialog, it will guide you through aligning the marks. IF You are using SCAL Pro.

Made progress last night got the laser calibrated have not yet done a contour cut. Having some issues with moving the laser to the last registration mark seems there is a travel limit. I will play with it tonight. One thing I have noticed is on the display off is laser on ect just go to get use to the cutter. I will say having a cordless mouse is a big help my cutter is behind my desk about 6 foot, you can take the mouse to the cutter table to move the cut head save alot of back and forth. Thanks for all the help

I can follow this through the aligning point but the laser does not come on when I hit enter, I'm using the SC Cutter, am I doing something wrong?
