Yes, we still sell it and support it. You can get a free trial on our website.

Carriage height is critical to getting optimal results. Since the print head will fire a droplet at a specific height and land in a specific spot, carriage height will need to be adjusted with each layer to ensure the droplets are landing where you want them. If you have scanned dimensional...

The quandary regarding ONYX and shape based nesting comes down to processing power. ONYX will always apply a quickset to any file you open directly into RIP Queue. This quickset will process the file in the vertical and horizontal resolution. When you apply shape based nesting to say 100...

Onyx still supports ONYX Trufit

Linearization tables are specific to the reader you have. When you tell Media Manager the spectrophotometer you are using, it will automatically select the appropriate chart to read. If you are referring to the actual numbers, these are specific to your printing device and are not global. The...

ONYX supports both the i1 and the Nix

We are expecting sometime in July. We were showing a beta version at ISA. This version is currently under testing.

UPDATE: ONYX Thrive 24 will have auto rotate with non-square resolutions - stay tuned

So it appears that it is nesting correctly based on the conserve media placement strategy. What is the resolution of the media profile you are using? What happens to the nest if you change the nesting strategy?

Something that would help out quite a bit would be to Recalibrate the profile. It appears that the print condition the profile was created in is quite a bit different than your print condition. If you were to relinearize by using the Recalibrate tool, your greys should be more neutral...

Have you experienced any print carriage collisions or has this been an on going issue? I have seen banding caused by misaligned lamps in the past. You can also try to set the lead lamp higher than the trailing lamp and see if that produces any better results. Also ensure that the lamp lens is...

Grizzly makes a great point about vertical vs horizontal resolutions as well. If they are different, the system would need to reinterpret the file to determine the number of dots on the swapped resolutions. Have you ever noticed when rotating a file in Job Editor that the "Waiting for Preview"...

Here are my settings. This is a multipage PDF with 3 full sized banners in a landscape format at 96x36. I set the media width to 54", conserve media, and best fit with allow rotate. If I were to rotate the image in job editor, the preview image would also be rotated. Would you be able to...

In the placement settings on the right hand side of the RIP Queue, select Conserve Media and then click the little gear to adjust the options. In the options, select "Best Fit" and "Allow Rotate". It should automatically adjust your nest so that you would not need to go into job settings for...

Thrive can run on multiple PCs. The key is to order 2 workstations, at least 3 printers, and enough rips to split between the two work stations. This would give you the ability to rip multiple jobs at once. You would have the ability to split rips between workstations depending on the amount...
