Encad Novajet 700

[CCT]

As I was picking up some silk screen equipment (used) I was given the opportunity to pickup a Novajet 700. I was able to replace the bearings and can get it to print a decent looking test pattern now. Any ideas where I can find a driver for this machine and / or which software I should use / who has the best inks?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

CCT, you need a RIP for the Encad 700. Your profile says you are using X4 for design. SAi has recently introduced FLEXIPRINT (to replace PhotoPrint); it is a standalone RIP software.

it's so sad that these die hard $400 printer require at least a $1500 rip. whatever happened to $500 simple rips? or am i just getting too old?

artbot, I see what you are saying, but what other choice is there?

 

[artbot]

none. i'm about to pick up an encad and experiment with mimaki latex inks in it and i'm facing the same issue. cheap printers with no rip.
