Thank you so much for the information. Yes, I just got the machine about 6 months ago and just now playing around with it. It does have a USB port and I do have the manual but it shows there was a cd with it at some point but I don’t have it and hope this will not keep me from doing things on it. I have been trying to work from an iPad but will try from a laptop. This is all kind of foreign to me so I’m going slow. I have a design I’m trying to move to the machine but no luck so far.
