Apple Macs and Craft Robos- Compatability?
As im new to this I thought Id ask the experts.
Ive been buying cut vinyl etc from local signmakers, but i feel it would be a great move if I bought a Craft Robo for small jobs because its seems like a versatile machine.
I have a few questions that I would like some info on to aid my decision.
Can it be run from an Apple mac Os 10.4?
Can i print onto injet vinyl and cut with this machine- for full colour stickers?
Can I also cut business cards with it (die cutting costs a fortune for small run promotional cards)Are there and plotters/printers/brands that do not support Apple Macs? (for future reference)
Cheers for any help

Ok Im relaying this answer from Jeff, my other half 😀 ( Graphtec service Manager)
No it wont run from a Mac, Yes it can contour cut and can cut up to approx 175gsm.
Hope this helps -
I think I am right in saying that the vast majority of plotters work on HPGL language and don’t really care whether the signal comes from a PC or a Mac.
A bigger problem is cabling (USB to serial etc etc) but you can usally find a way round it.
We’ve never had a problem.
