SB-windows 8-Graphtec CE5000-60. I can't get it to work!

Recommended Posts

Is anyone running SB on windows 8 and cutting on the Graphtec 5000-60? 

How did you get it to cut?  I have tried everything. I downloaded the driver from Graphtec.com it says it installed but none of the "Output Device" options work. What cutter option do you use?

Thanks for any suggestions I have been working on this for awhile and don't know what to do :'(

Thanks, Mary Ann

I'm still running WinXP with SBE, and will continue to do so for years to come.

 

Sorry, I have nothing to contribute regarding a solution to your Windows 8 issue.

Thanks Slice,

I needed to get a new laptop, my old one still works but is having issues and I needed a backup.

My other laptop has Vista and works fine but windows 8 is different.  I am figuring out windows 8 but this issue I can't figure out.  I hope someone will reply :wacko:

Thanks, Mary Ann

When seeking a replacement for a laptop that fails to operate or dies, I believe that for vinyl cutting it's best to just get a used one for $60 or so (running XP) and go back to work.

Heck, even some of those older laptops have serial ports!

 

Remember, vinyl cutters today are running with 1960's technology (HPGL drivers).
