Copam CP-2500 Stops Cutting in the middle of a job

[tshirtsink 0]

My setup:

connection: supplied USB

cut program: FlexiSIGN 7.00

Driver: recommened HP

communication:

Speed: 9600

Data: 8

Stop: 1

Parity: none

handshake: hardware

Problem: COPAM starts cutting while production manager is sending.  Just when prod. manager in Flexi  gets close to 100% the machine stops cutting. The COPAM still says cutting on the LED screen but nothing is happening.

Is their another recommmended driver or communication setup I should be using? 

I also checked the setup in my control panel and it matches exactly with Flexi's setup.

Help!

Mine is set up on the lpt port in ecp mode with a 1024 transmission buffer and the hpgl driver and I have had no problems.I don't even attempt to set either one up on the usb port because it is actually an emulated com port and I have found that emulators don't emulate as well as they should.

I don't know much about USB ports.  I ran a Summa on a serial port for 6 years with no problems.  I think I may switch to the serial port config.

Are you using the HP 7475 driver as instructed?

No,I use the hpgl driver.the 7475 didn't work for me.I run R2 on a com port.I think usb ports are good for printers and cameras,but for cutters or pnc's you really need a dedicated connection instead of a shared port.
