Pick the small Application launcher button from CorelDRAW, and then "Send Cut Lines to CM3".
If you receive a no Media Error, and your job pauses, try pressing ENTER to override the sensor and continue your cutting.
To turn on the lights on the vinyl cutter cart, use the remote and point at the receiver near the power strip.
