Long story short I bought a pnc-5000 on craigslist not working for 50.00. Guy said he got home from Arizona and it didn't turn on. Well apparently while he was gone someone took apart his cutter to clean it and forgot to plug the power supply back in and pinch in the fuses. Its a pnc 5000 color camm. So I took it apart to take a look and fixed it. Well now I have a vinyl cutter printer/plotter and no idea how to use it. I would like to learn all I can and where to get software to make this thing work. I would like to use free software if possible since I'm a special ed teacher and my budget sucks. I'm also a little freaked out cause I called a sign place and the guy told me that the sofware is 1000.00 and a roll of vinyl is 150.00. I know there has to be a cheaper way to do this. I also have a whole box of cartridges he gave me with it.
Another problem I am having is that my main computer does not have an i/o port. Is there a way around this.
