HP360Latex not printing full crop marks

myront

Dammit, make it faster!!
I have a macro that I use in CorelDRAW X7 to create my own crop marks. The marks are nothing more than just a reverse of the typical marks found when using pdf prepress settings. For whatever reason our HP360 only prints the first corners in there entirety, on the other two corners it stops short whereby leaving straight lines (see attached)

To me sounds like an issue with the bounding box in production manager or whatever your RIP is. In your picture. The bottom of the print would be the first thing out of the printer. Does it skip the beginning of the print or the end? What are your page lengths set to?

Yeah, that's right. So it's skipping at the beginning of the print. Page lengths? Sent as a tif @ 300dpi. Same way as we did on our "other" printer. We had no problems before. Maybe a media feed issue?

Doesn't your rip print those kind of cropmarks?
Easier than trying to add them in your design app or am I missing something.

Yes, the print RIP probably will do these crop marks but I have more control at my workstation. Like I said it's a macro that I made so it's a one click operation to drop in crop marks. I can then pull out or alter any I don't need.
