 +There are a number of software options on the Internet, but I will include the instructions of the software that worked for me:
 +
 +The software is Called **Silhouette Studio** and can be downloaded here: [[https://www.silhouetteamerica.com/software]]
 +The Software is **__free__**, but you can pay for a commercial version which basically supports different file types while importing.
 +
 +The one import file type lacking from the free version is **.SVG** - I would recommend using **.DXF** instead.
 +
 +  - Download the software 
 +  - Install following the instructions (make sure the cutter is not plugged into the computer until the software is setup and complete).
 +  - Once installed, run Silhouette Studio.
 +  - Click on SEND on the blue bar in the Top right hand corner. 
 +  - Plug in and turn on the cutter - You should now see at the bottom of the screen, that the cutter becomes available
 +  - If not, click on the "Select Device" drop down menu and select the cutter. The status should turn green and state "Ready" when the cutter is detected.
 +
 +You can now design your image and when ready to cut out, press the "SEND" button at the button of the "SEND" panel.
