Good evening everyone,

I have been a member on the forum for a while; however, this is my first time posting. I have learned a lot from reading the post from all of you and thank you for your knowledge of the industry. My question is, can anyone assist me in cutting to my silhouette cameo from funtime scrapbooking pro 2014. I know I need a better cutter, but for now, the silhouette is all I have. Funtime stated they are compatible with silhouette's driver. Can anyone assist me?

I went into settings to set up my silhouette in funtime; however, when I go to select the plotter after setting it as usb, the box is empty. It doesn't even show my printer, which has a driver. I'm lost and need a quick fix to complete orders. Thanks in advance for your help!!!

I followed your directions; however, when I click on "windows port", print setup pops up and silhouette is not showing.

I don't think you have your cameo installed correctly then

I uninstalled and reinstalled it with the updates that just came out. Silhouette says you do not have to have a driver for their software. Should there be a driver installed? I am working on a Dell laptop computer with Windows 8. It works on my old desktop, but I'm having a hard time with the cut settings on it. Also, my laptop is what I do all of my work on. Extremely frustrated!!!

If you do not see the cutter in your printer device manager then it is not installed on your new computer , I would suggest contacting the cutters tech support.
