    Hi all, I'm wondering if someone on here have any information about an old plotter called "Wild Leitz TA41"? I'm on the hunt for manuals/service manuals and such. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
  2. Printer cleaning - Alternative to Chemtronics Fomatips Swabs?

    We've been using Chemtronics Swabs for cleaning our printers since day one. They are good, but a bit on the expensive side. Does anyone have a suggestion for a good alternative to these? It's the daily cleaning around the edges of the printhead (not on it!) and the general weekly cleaning that...
  3. Omega 5 - exporting pdfs in CMYK rather than RGB

    Hi all, I was wondering if there's any way you can export a pdf-file from Omega in CMYK mode instead of RGB? We haven't really bothered to export files as PDFs from Omega, but rather use EPS because of this issue. What are we missing here?
  4. Valuejet 1204E fails to detect when out of ink

    Ever since we got this new brand of cartridges, our ValueJet mostly fails to detect when they go out of ink on a cartridge. It's a bit of hot or miss, mostly miss.

  5. Issues sending a job over the network to a Gerber Edge II

    Edit: Solved, see my own reply to this thread, in case it could help someone else. Hi all, we have a computer running Windows 7 Pro. The Gerber Edge II and an envision 375 is connected to this computer. Sending jobs locally from this WIndows 7 machine works just fine. Sending jobs over the...
  6. Mutoh 1682SR XpertJet - Spitting

    Hi all, we have a Mutoh 1682SR printer, and I'm curious about what people are setting the Spitting value at. Default for this machine from the manufacturer is a spitting value of 2. Is that a very conservative value? I guess you could bring ink comsumption down by increasing this value, but not...
  7. Omega 5 excessive diskwrites

    So, onto the next problem that seems to have appeared out the blue for me on my workstation. Sometimes while working in Omega, Omega starts to completely trash the Temp folder of my ssd with a large number of .wmf-files, that can easily reach several gigabytes in total in a matter of seconds...
  8. Issues when importing files into Omega 5

    Hi all, recently our Omega software refuses to import files (eps/pdf/ai) without changing the color the imported objects. For example, I can create a simple box shape in Illustrator, color it red (cmyk 0:100:100:0), and when I import that file into Omega, the values have changed. Importing the...
  9. Gerber Sabre 408 issue

    Hi all, I have an issue with our Gerber 408 router and ARTpath (version 2.6.0.17). The issue is that the router doesn't seem to accept the "Z Lift" option in the Job Output window. Default value in that window is ~6 something, and no matter what I type in there, the router won't lift the...
  10. Gerber Edge 2 / Omega issue

    Hello, anyone got a clue as to why we got this error message in GQMgr when sending a job to our edge2? It basically says that "A unit connected to the computer isn't working" (see attached screenshot). After a restart it's working again. Computer is running Win10 pro, and Omega version is 5...
