Hi Doc

Going down the same route you di a short time ago

The plotter however is trying to pick up and deposit the cutter ( I am using a Mimaki holder and Knive which fit well and I need to fix the holder perminantly.

You mention you removed some of the carousel gears, Please would you be more specific

Help needed please

regards

Roger

I too am in the process of converting a 7550A. I got it to run on Signgo last night. I'm running on XP with a serial to usb adaptor. It is made by ATEN. It lets you go out on the USB to a serial device. I had a problem at first because I did not identify the correct COM port. I looked in the control panel under ports and found where the ATEN adaptor was ported. I'm still fine tuning the output. I am interested in the pen holder that will work best. By the way I have a total of 9 (nine) pen plotters from the small desk top to the large roll type E size.
