== Tips on how to use (After Certified)==
Loading the Media.
* Raise the lever on the upper back right of the machine
* Slide in the media.  It helps to have a rectangular piece so the machine can recognize the size.  Center it over some of the grooved rollers so they are as close to the edges as possible.
* Slide the pinch rollers from behind over the grooved roller you chose.
* Lower roller with the lever.
* Read the display and push the arrow button for the type of media you are loading.
'''Importing Files.'''
The software can import a lot of formats, but it is very old, so it needs old versions of the file formats.  The software has a Copyright date of 1991-2001.  You can use DXF files, but I found the the version had to be a pre 2000 version.  I used DXF Rev 12 ASCII format for example.  Some formats have not changed in years like HPGL and are good to use.
* AutoCAD DXF R12 ASCII
* HPGL
