Answers from Stratasys to emails:
- We stop supporting this system a couple years ago, so getting the software for this system is not possible because it cannot be purchased and is only available through a maintenance contract. We are not aware of any third party or open source application that would work on this system.
- Quickslice might be archived somewhere, however, we have to adhere to company policy.
