Can you pause Flexi (using Production Manager) while printing large paneled runs?

Ok, another bit I haven't figured out, and you guys rock, so here comes. I'll even say PRETTY PLEASE if I have to. I cannot figure out (the old Gerber Edge did it..) how to pause when printing huge runs of panels. I do not have a take-up reel, so printing 20+ feet gets messy.... I need to know if there is a way to get the printer to pause between panels, or should I just pop the cover when I need to cut some print off.

Thanks in advance!!

In flexi when you have the rip print window open you should have a panneld layout of the design. You can select by clicking on the pannels which one to print and which one's not. It will put a mesh type screen over the selections that will not be printed. That way it only prints one at a time.

THANK YOU!!! In fact I had actually figured it out and was coming back to my post to answer my own question. Oh well. Thanks so much, though. I find I dive into these complex programs and only figure out what I need on a day-to-day.. then I get complacent and then pissed when a question comes up that I can't figure out. This is where training might have helped a bit...


.. who needs training when ya got SIGNS 101!!!!

What type of printer do you have? My Roland allows me to pause by hitting the cabcle button and then hitting the enter button when i want to resume

Mutoh is pretty simple. Just raise the door. Starts up right back on point when you lower it.
