Need Help Graphtec CE3000-120

[Ricki Susic]

Hi y'all,

I recently bought a Graphtec CE3000-120 used, obviously.
I'm having a bit of a struggle to make it cut. The Graphtec website doesn't help in any way - the cutter is too old.

Does any of you guys know which software and on what computer-system this cutter will work. Or should I just accept that it was a bad buy, and send it right off to the museum for ancient technology? I hope not!

Best regards
Ricki

It's pretty old of a cutter to bring back from the dead. But an old Windows XP computer and Flexi should work.

I have one too. Seems like you can't use Windows 10, and are you required to have Illustrator or CorelDraw?

 

[Ricki Susic]

No - haven't got Illustrator or Corel Draw.

SignLab, FlexiSign can run it, or use budget softwares like EasyCut Studio or SignCut. the last 2 can run on Mac and PC as well.

Graphtec Cutting Master 2 for corelDraw or Illustrator can be used as well. No point to go back for XP. any Graphtec softwares. supported on Windows 7

Ok - good to know.
Will signlab run the graphtec on win10?

Illustrator with cutting master
Get the 2019 version of Ai. I found the 2020 wasn't working with CM4

the simple and very basic program signblazer can run it. PM me and I can send you a copy. run in windows 7 compatibility mode.

You will likely spend time with your parralel ports, and a little more time if you need a parallel to USB adaptor.

Yes, as long as your version of signLab runs or Win10. and have serial port on your computer, or Win 10 compatible USB-Serial Adapter.
