Now resolved. The HPC CD I used yesterday was a HPC INSTALLATION CD but had no setup filemon it. This morning I found a CD which simply said HPC SOFTWARE. This did have the Setup program on it - I ran it and all is now well. LS 3020 still a brilliant little machine for the price, and only 200 hours ...

Yes I have done that, installed drivers from the mini CD which came with the larger Newlydraw CD. I will try again now Newlydraw is installed.

New Windows XP laptop (well £99 refurb - but is working OK) to run Newlydraw for cutting on my LS3020. Dongle in, copied Newlydraw directory from CD to laptop and Newlydraw runs fine but after loading dxf file and going to ENGRAVE the Factory and Model drop-down boxes are empty. Where do I find the ...

Thanks Dave A really useful list of plastics. I have had success with A4 double-sided adhesive sheets off Ebay. I use Thin Mylar sheets to make detailed fencing etc for model railway.

Double check that the home and student version of X6 reads and writes the .dxf files (or at least another supported format) before you buy it. I believe it does not but would love to know from someone who has it that it does!

I was hoping to buy it myself but need .dxf for my 3020

This may not be helpful in your case, but I had 250 hours on a tube when it gave the results you are experiencing. It would cut a little on low power but not at all as I turned it up. It turned out to be the water. I had put some Milton in to stop it going green. I use an HPC cooler and the water wa...

Hi I photoengrave on my 3020 using coreldraw and corelphoto. Load your photo into corelphoto, find the convert to black and white option and then in the drop down Box you have various 'dithering' options, halftone etc. THere are three with strange names, I can only remember Stucki, but they all conv...
