# Vinyl4 Vinyl Cutter -- Firmware / Drivers Index

Inventory of **Windows printer drivers**, the **SAi FlexSTARTER plugin**, and related software from the local cncu.co.za mirror under `T:\U\C\Vinyl4-Vinyl-Cutting-Plotter\`, mapped to live `https://cncu.co.za/...` URLs.
English prose only. **No pricing.** Driver binaries / EXEs / ZIPs / APKs themselves are **not** copied into this KB (pointer + URL only), except the tiny FlexSTARTER `.enc` plugin.

**Line status:** Vinyl4 (Hobby / Studio / Business) **supersedes V-Series for new sales**. Keep V-Series knowledge for existing machines (`drivers/vseries-drivers-index.md`, `machinery/v-series-phased-out.md`). Official range pages: https://vinyl4.com/hobby · https://vinyl4.com/studio (GET HTTP 200; HEAD 405). Operation manual hub: https://vinyl4.com/manual (GET HTTP 200).

There is **no controller firmware tree** on this product. Local `Firmware/` and `Firmwares/` are absent; live both return **HTTP 404**. This file is a **drivers** index named firmware-index to match the Vinyl4 dest convention.

## What these drivers are

Vinyl4 talks to Windows as a **USB printer-class** device (UniDrv stack: `InstallPrinterD.dll` + `CutToolPro.exe` + `InstallDriver\` unidrv files). There is no year-sticker USB/COM family split like V-Series (no CH341 / PL2303 / STM VCP tree in this folder).

**Prefer the 2024 ZIP packages** over the 2016 standalone EXEs (**newer wins** inside the same x64/x86 family). Wrong-arch install can leave the cutter invisible -- only when support directs. Support WhatsApp +27 60 600 7000.
