As I understand it, the cutter must be physically placed in the "3" position for die cutting and "1" position for kiss cutting. I'm assuming the perf cut you programmed would be a die cut, so wouldn't the cutter need to be placed in the 3 position before running the perf cut?
OMG you saved me on this video. I have been trying for years to get ONYX to just print my blacks without any other colors for this color shift issue. I believe my issue is that both of my Cyan/Black printheads are out of warranty and even though I do not see any non-firing jets during the Clean Printheads test print I believe there's an issue there. This trick got me the pure grays I wanted although some solid shades around 40% have some banding. (Probably the worn printheads) But this got the job out while I wait for new printheads to be delivered.
Thank you... great videos. I just bought an fc9000. still learning, so when die cutting, i need to manually move blade from slot 2 to 1 (one being closer to me and 2 being closer to plotter) correct. If we set condition 8 for die cutting, blade will not move automatically ?
Just bought a CE7000 and been cutting with it but its now making 2 passes on the cut and not sure why. Can you possibly help. Using Adobe Illustrator Thanks Dirk
In Illustrator under the "color picker" and under "CMYK" values make sure everything is set to 0 and magenta to 100 - same for Cyan, Black, etc. Save as an Adobe Illustrator file ai and send to print. Make sure you turn off all ICC Profiles to OFF. This way you can true hues.
Hey Josh! Say I load 30 different files into my queue. All the same size. I want to nest 4 of them together and print. Then nest the next 4, and print. And so on and so on. How is that done? Right now, Im just ripping 4 as the last four finish and hitting print. But I'd like to use the "automatically start printing" option, so it continues to print 4 at a time. You know, the way most other rips work. Any ideas?
You need to set a custom page size to define the length of each job, just like you would in say Versaworks with 'custom sheet' setting. Then you can use 'conserve media' and it will fit as many as possible within that page size. Make sure 'print all rows at a time' is ticked in the placement settings or it will only print the first sheet.
