  • CX-24 too old to connect to Illustrator?

    Hello

    New on here.

    I have had a Roland Cx-24 since, 2001 I think. It has been a great machine.

    It ran on an old XP system and was going well until the Easy Sign software it worked with is no longer supported

    I know the XP system is really dated but it worked for plotting the graphics and was reliable.

    I use an iMac and Macbook Pro as main computers with Illustrator. I tried getting Illustrator to work but only supports up to the GX-24 and not the CX.

    I just wondered if anyone had any workarounds for a mac connecting to it? Or a different software that would work on XP without upgrading it.

    Vinyl is not my main business but occasionally it calls for it so its handy to keep going.

    I guess my fall back is a new GS-24 at £1200!

    Maybe run coreldraw on xp. I still run a cm-24 that way. Still running strong.
