Default I have a LaserPoint 24 -25" Vinyl Cutter/Cutting Plotter

Right now I am using SignBlazer Elements through my USB port. I have Corel and Ai but neither see the cutter. I went to US Cutter site and downloaded the Corel drivers but sill no luck. SignBlazer Elements is okay but when I convet graphics to Vectors they do not come out right. I need help in all areas. Thank You all in advance

Okay that got me nowhere, the answer was do it in Corel and export. When I do that it is very rough.

The LaserPoint and Creation series cutters cannot be configured to cut/ plot directly from Corel or Illy. The Corel dirver you found is for our Copam series cutter.

I would suggest vectorizing in Corel, then importing to SignBlazer in .eps format, rather than importing the raster image to SignBlazer and then vectorizing.

The plugin to cut directly from CorelDRAW is VERY basic, and not worth your time. Once you figure out where to put your files (sorry, I can't remember what I did now...I think I just installed it as a printer), you access the plugin from the "Print" menu. (Oops...this is for the Copam, not LaserPoint)

I haven't had any issues exporting to AI 8 files and importing into SignBlazer Elements. How do you mean that they're rough?

Okay here is where I am confused, I have 1000's like that, all ready to go that I brought from ebay. They look perfect until I import them into SignBlazer Elements. Any suggestion? I am just trying to figure what I am doing wrong.
