MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted August 26, 2017 I don't know where you found your version of Signblazer, but the Signblazer version posted here, has many, many drivers including REDSAIL. Look under some of member slice&dice posts. He has posted it a ton of times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slice&dice 2,450 Posted August 26, 2017 http://www.uscuttersupport.com/downloads/Software/SignBlazer/signblazer_setup.exe This is the Hybrid release (no-nags at startup) and has V7.o.o (2012) indicated in the Help/ABOUT menu. http://www.uscuttersupport.com/downloads/Software/SignBlazer This links to the (hidden) directory for the .pdf instruction manual also. brywy, Copam CP-2500 could also work for the MH/Redsail, since it's a fairly generic driver. You might want to try that in Flexi which is a far superior application to SignBlazer anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BRYWY 0 Posted August 26, 2017 ok tried the cp2500 in flexi got a reaction but did not cut properly thanks that would be my preferred solution since all my designs were made using flexi any other suggestions for flexi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BRYWY 0 Posted August 26, 2017 ok in flexi whether I use the redsail 450c (my plotter is 500c) or cp 2500 it only cuts 18 % then stops Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted August 26, 2017 Have you tried as set up USCUTTER MH365 driver? That is a 14" cutter. People use the REDSAIL driver for the refine cutters. Those cutters also have limited memory. And that cutter has a flaky USB connection.....Best on a Tripp-Lite Keyspan Adapter That is the brand name... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BRYWY 0 Posted August 26, 2017 ok says it is cutting but nothing happens Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted August 26, 2017 which software? I gave you advice for Flexi. You have to make sure the com port number in your computer device manager and Flexi software match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BRYWY 0 Posted August 26, 2017 Yess flexi yes com 2 I know it is the correct port because the other drivers print but only partialy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MZ SKEETER 4,709 Posted August 27, 2017 Did you download and install the cutter driver? And you know it installed correctly? https://support.uscutter.com/support/solutions/articles/14000030240-mh-mk2-driver-download Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

slice&dice 2,450 Posted August 27, 2017 Let's back up and review -- this thread has gone too far astray. 1. You've downloaded that V7 SignBlazer and it communicates with your cutter properly? Yes or No? 2. Are you getting the same partial result using just a basic text-only file, with a single simple word? (i.e. - "TEST") Yes or No? 3. May we please see the actual design (file) that's giving you problems? Offer it here as an .eps so we'll be able to evaluate the quality of the file itself, maybe that's your problem to begin with? 4. Flexi is not the topic of this thread, SignBlazer is. Let's focus on that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You posted originally that your new redsail 500c plotter wasn't responding with SignBlazer, so I solved that issue for you (and was never thanked for that) I furthermore requested to see the file you are still experiencing difficulty with. Until you do that, nothing more can be accomplished in this discussion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe he can send it directly to you,.if he wants your help. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slice&dice 2,450 Posted August 27, 2017 OIC. Dollars to Donuts the file itself is messed-up with a stray node from a poorly-executed vectorization or other anomaly. Well, we got him up and running with SignBlazer, which is what he wanted from the top-post, so I think this thread has served its purpose. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
guinter810 0 Posted January 30, 2019 I am also looking for the redsail driver. The two links on redsails site are dead. I did sent them a message looking for the driver to be used with signblazer and with a R-series II plotter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
