Dumb question......again

[TeresaMc 0]

I have been using the USB connection and want to try again to use the LPT port....where in Sign Blazer do I go to change the port settings because I can't for the life of me find it.

open SB...click on CUTTER,then SETUP.

Could not get it to work on LPT at all   Have been having problems with the USB connection freezing up, especially when cutting really big projects (wasted yards of vinyl trying to cut some car graphics 120" x 23")  So I now installed SignBlazer on my laptop and hooked it up with the serial port.  Seems to be working great so far, hopefully stays that way!!!!  Now I just have to figure out how to transfer my SignBlazer registration to the laptop instead of the desktop.

Teresa you could purchase this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812999081 and keep it on your desktop.  I haven't needed to use one but everyone on here seems to say the keyspan works the best.

I ran into this same issue when I baught my new laptop. no parallel port just usb.office max had cable one end usb the other

parallel. bit SB would not recognise? After Ireturned cable I have notice in set up it states com4-parallel port.is it recognising it now.

Or do you need a special driver?

If it is like a Serial to USB cable, it should have come with a driver disk. Sounds like it was assigned COM4 for the connection.
