Default Laser point 24

Just got my laser point 24. Got it set up and running. I used the com cable connection. I can only print from sign cut elements.

Can I cut directly from illustrator?
Can I cut direct from Corel?
I've also tried Flexi 7, but I can't find the correct cutter driver in the production mngr. Can another cutter driver be substituted or can I download something for flexi from the web?

Please advise, thanks.

Flexi use Creation Pcut driver, can't remember which one but if you goto their forum, www.forum.uscutter.com they'll be able to help you.

The LP will work with Flexi using the Creation PCut CT630 DMPL driver.

Copy and paste this file in to your OutPut Drivers folder. Open Production manager back up, and it should now be there. Oh, you will have to unzip the folder to get to the file to copy it.

Not sure if yours is the same, but my destination is:

C:Program Files/Flexi/OutPut Drivers
Attached Files
File Type: zip Creation-PCut.zip (1.3 KB, 16 views)

I'll try the plugin later. I just got finished 35 custom names on family reunion tees. I've got 3 kinda intricate designs to do on 3 tees for the same order and I'm done. Cutter works pretty good, a little noisy. Had a problem weith the rollers snagging- think i fixed it. Really wanted the gx-24, but dollar for dollar, this aint a bad piece of equipment, this order paid for it! THanks guys. Oh btw, how about contour cutting?

From what I understand, contour cutting with the LaserPoint can only be done with SignBlazer or SignCut, although there may be a possibility of having it contor cut with Flexi if David was able to get the Refine series to do it.

Default Re: Laser point 24

Sorry guys but I was not able to get the laserpoint to contour cut through Flexi. I can contour cut through Flexi with a Refine, but the Refine and Laserpoint use 2 different drivers and that's the reason I can with the Refine and not the Laserpoint.

Am i reading this right..you can contour cut with the refine using flexi cutting software.... hmmmm.

One question how precise is the contour cutting on this?

Also what flexi version are you using?

Yes you are reading it correctly and as far as precision, I really don't know because I got it working and then never used it again since.

I am using Flexi Pro 7.6
