What is your rip software and your Windows version?

What is your rip software and your Windows version?

Windows 7 with Flexi 19 Cloud.

Windows 7 with Flexi 19 Cloud.

All you need is Digitalfactory Print + Cut Production. With this program you can control more printers from a computer.
Try the demo version:

You can easily install and remove this program.

You need to set them up as 2 separate machines in production manager and then make sure you choose the correct port. One should be "USB_PRINTER_0" and the other should be "USB_PRINTER_1" As long as those ports are set properly it should distinguish between the two.

That is pretty disingenuous. User has an problem and was trying to fix it. Rather than help, you simply try to push him to a totally different RIP which is unnecessary and somewhat crude. It about the same as someone saying that they are trying to figure out how to do something in Corel and someone replies with easy, dump Corel and get Adobe. Both software does design just fine and both RIP's can control more than one printer just fine.

All he needed was someone to tell him how to configure it and select the port for each printer in Flexi which also lets you control more than one printer from the same computer/rip.

I agree with you SightLine

I think your 2 printers have the same name. Function->machine setup 2 ->machine name (the default is "JV33-01). Rename 2 different devices. Open printer manager and install them based on the given name.
