Hello,
I just purchased an used Epilog Radius 25Watt. I downloaded and installed
the driver from the epilog website.
http://www.epiloglaser.com/downloads_radius.htm
unzipped it and followed the instruction in my manual to install the
driver. And I ran into 2 major problems.
Problem #1:
When I click on print from illustrator CS3 (running on Windows XP) I don't get the
Epilog laser setup print window. I just get the normal print window of
illustrator.
216374
So I just clicked on "Setup..." at the lower left corner of
the print dialog window. Another print window pops up where you can select
different printers.
216375
From there I click on "preferences." I am able
to change speed, power and some of the settings
216376216373
But there's no options for assigning which colors to raster and which colors to vector. Plus, I don't want to go through so many windows to change the settings to print.
Problem #2:
When I vector cut, one side of the shape will be uncut/missing. For example, when I tried cutting a square the left line of the square didn't cut. When I tried cutting a hexagon lower left line didn't cut. When I tried cutting a circle it didn't complete the circle. Small section of the bottom of the circle was uncut. So I tried cutting 2 hexagons side by side as one file. It skipped cutting the lower left lines of both of the hexagons.
Please help! I was so hoping that when I set up my laser I wouldn't have any problems...I was afraid of this :(
I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.
