Hi friends! I am new to this forum and have been struggling for a couple of days trying to get my (old) Kodak (KPG) Matchprint ProofPro RIP version: LF A1-A0 to print nicely on my 42" HP 5000 UV. It doesn't matter if I load a 1/x PDF or a TIFF-file. Printing from Photoshop or other Windows...

I have Flexi 11 SP6. I can RIP a PDF to a banner and 75% of the time it RIPs in 5 minutes or less (4x8) and prints out fine. The other 25% it takes a long time, sometimes over an hour, and prints super heavy - 300-400% across the entire print (hopefully I stop it in the first few inches). It...

I'm looking at getting a new printer and the machine comes with PhotoPrint RIP. After googling it looks exactly like Flexi. Is Flexi made by http://www.taimes.net/p/photoprint-rip-software.html ? Anyway are the profiles interchangeable? I wouldn't mind having only one RIP to drive my other...

We are upgrading to Onyx Production house RIP to run our 2 Epson GS6000s and an Epson SureColor S70. Is it possible to put that software on a Virtual machine, and run all 3 printers from it? Im not really sure how a Virtual machine works to be honest, all i know is that its sort of like...

We are running Flexi for the rip & a graphtek 8000-130 My settings got reset somehow! & not on every turn of a letter it leaves a little hangy piece, very small but very obvious. I had this happen years ago and remember it was some setting, but after 3 hours, I figured I would see how a post...

Hi all! I'm getting ready to take an older PC and revamp it to run Caldera on Linux. I'm interested in hearing from any of you Caldera-on-Linux-Users that have tips for number of hard drives, sizes, specs, etc. that have made a big performance difference on your machine. Right now, I'm...

I have Corel X6 but just couldn't get my contour cut path to work in my RIP so I went back to X5 because I have no problem cutting from there. I have checked every setting in X6 and compared to X5 to be sure they're the same. I have checked my preferences in my RIP, I have followed the 2...

Hey, I recently acquired a Roland sc540 Printer, but the RIP software that was bundled with the machine "Color Rip" was not included in this. As far as I know the rip was bundled with the machine on it's release. If anyone knows where that can be downloaded or have a copy they can send me it...

trying to understand the relative differences, advantages and dis-advantages to each. Thoughts? We're in the process of upgrading our print shop and adding a UV printer and would like to be able to operate whatever we get and our existing Epson GS6000 from the same program.

I currently have a file that I set up for contour cutting in Illustrator. It is the state of New Hampshire with a grey fill with a black stroke.The file was set up correctly, but it is cutting inside the stroke, versus outside the stroke. How would I go about setting this up so it cuts...
