I am looking for someone to work with to develop a new printer driver which will drive a CNC type device on a Windows 7 operating system. The printer driver will need to be able to work with vector type graphics software such as Adobe Illustrator & Corel Draw. It should install as a normal printer driver. 1)The printer driver will identify the different types of line & colour drawn. 2)The printer driver will then be able to apply settings to each of these colours under the preferences tab found in the printer driver 3)Clicking Print the software will convert the drawing into G-Code and send it to the TinyG CNC board. It should be able to identify as a minimum: Red fine lines Green fine lines Black fill areas When clicking on the preferences tab in the driver you can then adjust the settings under each colour; - Speed - Power - PWM - Z Height The user workflow should be as : 1) User draws graphic 2) User clicks File>Print>Preferences 3) User adjusts settings under each colour 4) User Clicks Apply>Print (Data is converted to G-Code & is sent to the TinyG CNC driver) 5) User clicks button on CNC machine to start process We already have some examples of software layout to work from. More information on the TinyG board can be found here: [login to view URL] The project payment will be in stages with a final fixed price & potential licencing fee at end : 1) Printer driver developed with correct preferences layout 2) Single colour tested 3) Multiple colour tested 4) Final testing Thank you for your time, For further detail and any questions please make contact,

Hello, This is an expert developer and I would like to estimate your request. I think you are wrong with the printer driver approach and I will tell you why: 1. Driver development is far away more complex than user application development. (Useless additional cost) 2. Drivers can only be used for the operating system they were designed for. (No portability) 3. A printer driver installed on a Windows system will accept printing jobs from any application, and even they could send raster images. (Invalid input data) My suggestions: To build a driverless cross-platform application able to manage the most common vectorial formats (DWG, DXF), or maybe just the current standard exchange format (SVG), since any application would be able to export to it. The application could also let the user to create their own graphics for printing, so no other 3rd party software would be required. As you can see, I could build the state-of-the-art application you require. It will be compatible with any operating system (Win/Mac/Linux) having a single codebase (easier to update and mantain). The user just need to plug the TinyG board, launch the app, draw and print. Note that no drivers would be required, the application will talk directly with the TinyG board through USB. I work with G-Codes everyday, and I even have my own 3d printer so I can test the results myself. My bid is only orientative, looking forward to your reply for an accurate estimation. Best Regards, David

I could help you with this application . Ignore the price and time . I need more info to tell right price and time. but . Are you sure that application like CorelDraw will call printer driver with vector elements? What about the path direction - it is important?
