Hey guys!
Just joined the forum

I recently picked up a free Mutoh iP-530 plotter and was hoping to get it working and eventually turn it into a vinyl cutter. I've read around on here that it can emulate a HP 7580. I've got no idea where to start on software for this thing so was hoping for some guidance and also some help getting it to talk to the computer. I've ordered a parallel cable to get me started but other than that not sure where to go after that. There isn't any manuals for this model specifically. Closest I can find is a manual for the xp 510 https://www.manualslib.com/manual/10...oh-Xp-510.html

I was hoping to start off by getting it to plot basic vector files with a pen manually placed in the holder and not using the carousel, so from there I can put a knife in and then start cutting vinyl.

Any help is appreciated, I can upload some pictures later too if need be
