Will the software that comes with this print .ai files? Is there other software that will print out designs for this printer?

Yes and no... Yes you can take vector images made in Illustrator. No you can't use .ai files. The solution is to export the file as a .dxf. You have to make sure that the vector art is ungrouped and not using any compound paths. There also shouldn't be any color used on the art. And make sure you're using the most up to date version of Studio when you import your dxf file. Happy cutting!

I'm mystified by the print section of Aftershot. So much so, that I got in the habit of opening images in another program to print. Sorry that I can't help.

if you have ANY current operating system (XP, Win 7 or 8), it should find it & download it - I'm not sure any printer comes with them anymore

I found the Apple AirPrint to be less than optimal. It requires more than just a simple Print.I downloaded the Epson "iPrint" app to my iPad and iPhone. That works fine for me.

All are the exact same machine. The 'Designer' and 'Signature Worthy' Editions come with extra software for professional printing use. Check this link:www.luminous-landscape.com/forum/index.php?action=printpage;topic=70234.0

The printer does not come with ID printing software but it does come with drivers on the CD in order for the printer to be installed and listed on the computer as an installed printer.

on this particular label we have only done the print.. My husband thinks that you have to have a special program in order to add images.. hope this was helpful

The software gets loaded on the local workstation and then the device prints. It does not work with other software to my knowledge. I only used the software that came with the device. It is very much like a regular printer

I have great results with the "Repetier" software. The typical problem is "homing" the printer. For this I found useful to get familiar with the basic G-Code homing codes. Note that there are two types: (a) the ones that move the printer to its home position and then (b) the ones that tell the printer that now it is a the "0.0" position. What I found confusing at the beginning is that after you have invoked the (a) commands, the printer does not assume to be at the "0.0" position, and therefore you need to use the (b) commands. For (a) look at the G28 code in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-code. Make sure that you can use these codes first, from the manual commands window in Repetier. Hope this helps. This is a great printer. I managed to get prints of similar quality to the Makerbot 2X. It requires however, like most 3D printers, a bit of tinkering; which after all is part of the fun of it.

Yes I believe that the makerware program will load Sketchupadn cad files and convert them to print files

I'm using the template provided by my Epson printer. Couldn't use Avery or Word. Do you have a graphics program that has label templates?

Lightscribe website has the drivers for download. But you will need layout software too just like you were making cd labels. They have that as well, a very limited free one. But if you are going to do much of that, a good piece of 3rd party software would serve you better. I went that route for custom design ability. They list several compatible ones on the site.

If I remember correctly, in that edition there is a pdf print driver included with H&R that is installed when you install the program. When you choose print, look for the printer in your printer list.

Yes, I am working with it and had no problems. I just installed it a few weeks ago, following the procedure in the manual, then the firmware was automatically updated and then connected to the computer with the drivers and apps previously installed from the cd. I printed from word, open office, gimp, illustrator, chrome, adobe reader, and all of them worked fine, I am using it with a usb cable but because I need to test large heavy graphics, but the speed when printing wireless was as fast as usb for letter size documents. The drivers are current. No compatibility problems or popups.

Yeah, they don't do that, you have to go to this link http://www.printshop.com/user-guide/35.aspx and it must be said... they are STILL working out bugs on that piece of... software
