Harvey,

Thanks for the insight.

It runs at about 3/4 the speed of the V3000 at max. Compared to today's machines it is very slow.


Compared to yesterday's machines (pantograph) which I use fairly often, my 3000s are hammering away at the speed of sound. :-) 

With multiple, cheap, outdated (yet serviceable) workhorses, it's possible to out-produce many of today's models.

I had a 3400 for a short time and as I recall you had to have an old pc to run it. Maybe even DOS based. The machine looked like new but I couldn't get a pc to work with it so I sold it at a profit.

Bill,

Here's a LINK to a retrofit option from Quality One Engravers for the V3000.

Thanks for the responses. No problem with the DOS computer if needed(they are all DOS). Guess I will have to take a real look at them and make my decision from there. Thanks Again!

Have A Great Day!

I do not know if this info will be useful, but if either the V3000 or v3400 has an EP module, either can be driven by Gravostyle 98. This program runs on anything from Win 95 through Win XP Professional.

When you finally understand it completely... it changes.
