Update: Got the machine working. It was a Com port setting in my VirtualBox software running XP that I missed. Now just wondering if I can update the firmware a bit in hopes of using a bit more modern software - we'll see. It's on version 1.18 now (engraver software version) and engraver model version is 3.01. Has only 34 hours on the tube, while the machine has 647 hours on it.
*** However, I cannot "print" a job to Job Control. Using CorelDraw X4 (for XP). When sending a job it just hangs in the spooler. Per the manual I have the Trotec printer driver set to LPT1 (and not the actual COM port used). Any insights? ***
Another update: I figured it out. Had to have the driver print to "TROTEC:" in the list of ports (not LPT1 or any other Com port). I found this by scouring the Internet as it was not mentioned in any of my documentation (the "help" file in Job Control explicitly said to set it to LPT1). Now to work on trying to make things a bit more modern if I can (firmware update, newer Job Control, etc.) but that may prove to be a challenge with a 2001 machine. At least the thing works now and I'm pretty happy.
