ReadMe: Ioline Control Center Version 5 for the Macintosh® requires:

– System 7.5.3 or later
– A PowerPC or newer processor
– The Communications ToolBox and the Serial Tool Extension

Serial Tool Extension: This installer will add the Serial Tool Extension to the Extensions Folder in the active System Folder if it does not already exist. It will not replace the Serial Tool Extension if it is already there.

To connect an Ioline plotter to your computer you will need an available serial port or a USB to serial adapter.

USB Users: If you have a newer Macintosh® that does not have a serial port, but instead has USB ports, you will need to purchase a USB to Serial adapter to connect an Ioline plotter to your computer. We have tested our software successfully with the Keyspan USB to Serial Adapter and we recommend you use that device for reliable connectivity.

Legacy drivers for AutoCAD® 13 & 14
Download: acad13.exe
Posted: 2001.02.01
Size: 59 KB
Description: This driver is written for the DOS version of AutoCAD® 13. However, our plotters will emulate other plotters whose drivers are in the Windows® versions of AutoCAD® 13 and 14. In the plotter configuration menu, you may select Houston Instruments® or HP® plotters, many of which will work as drivers for the Ioline plotters. If your Ioline plotter was manufactured prior to October of 1987, it may not recognize the HP/GL language, in which case it would be best to select one of the Houston Instruments® plotters. There are several Houston Instruments® drivers that you can emulate to use with an Ioline plotter. For example: DMP-52, DMP-56, DMP-62
To install: Self-extracting file. Copy the file to the PC and install.

Generic Windows Drivers

Ioline does not write generic Windows drivers. Most sign-making software includes the necessary drivers to connect an Ioline plotter to your computer. If your design software does not come with its own drivers, there are other ways to send the design to the plotter.

For example many of the sign-making software companies, such as Scanvec-Amiable®, and others, have products that can import files from popular graphic applications such as CorelDRAW!®, FreeHand®, Adobe Illustrator®, and other graphics programs. These products are generally much less expensive than a full sign making software package. Contact the software manufacturers for further information.

Third party HP/GL drivers called Winline Plus and CoCut is used with various Windows® programs and Ioline equipment. For information on these drivers, please contact:
