So I recently picked up a lightly used Graphtec CE5000-60. It worked beautifully when I tested it from the guy's computer I bought it from. I am running windows 7 if that makes a difference. I downloaded and installed the drivers and controller software from Graphtec's website. At first I thought maybe it was my version of SBE I was using so I dowloaded the all versions one with the crack and update. Told it to use the Graphtec CE3000 setup.

Nothing, so I decided to use the Graphtec Robo Master Pro cutting software, nothing. I have it hooked through the USB port.

I'm at my wits end PLEASE HELP!!! What is a Windows Driver? A software driver or 'driver' for short, is a software module that will allow your software application to speak the language the cutter will understand and follow.

The Graphtec cutters and plotters speak two languages: HPGL (Hewlett Packard Graphics Language) and GPGL (Graphtec Plotter Graphics Language). HPGL is a generic language that is commonly used. Since most sign software packages have a Graphtec driver built in, there is no need to use a Windows driver to output a design to the Graphtec cutter.

A Windows driver is a driver that will allow programs to use the cutter as if it were a printer device. Graphic design packages such as CorelDraw, Adobe Illustrator and others can send vector data to the windows driver to cut the design on the cutter.

NOTE: If you are using a sign software package (Gerber, Advantage, FlexiSIGN, SignLab, Onyx, Wasatch, etc.) it is better to use their built-in drivers.
