SS on Laptop
« on: October 22, 2009, 01:03:54 PM »
Will SS work ok on a lap top with no parallel port and integrated graphics?
And do you still run the Mach 3 parallel port driver?

The only laptop that I have heard of not playing well with mach and the SS was a Toshiba Satellite. I would say about 1/2 the folks I have sold SmoothStepper to are using laptops. Also, you do not need to load the parallel port driver when using the SS. Just install the SS driver and plug-in after installing Mach.

Hope that helps,
