Parallel Port Upgrade
I just purchased an older used Shark machine that has the old parallel port controller. I am more interested in wood carving than electronic engineering so I was wondering if there is a way to purchase the new USB controller separately? I am really trying to get away from Mach3 which is just way too complicated. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Hi,
You may want to call the support number and ask the question. There is a post on this here - http://www.cncsharktalk.com/viewtopic.p ... llel#p1811 - but he didn't follow up with the outcome.
Not much help at this point - sorry.
