Make sure that the printer is turned on, and ready to print. As well as being connected to the rip station.
Adding the printer
- Select File Menu > New Printer… and select your printer from the list in the menu, then click OK. Our list of supported printers is updated regularly so we advise you to keep an eye on the Support Printers article.
The printers available for you will depend on the level of Digital Print Rip licence you have (Level 1, 2, or 3). Level 3 gives full access to the list. If the printer you require access to is greyed out, you can upgrade your licence to the next level. Please contact AVA Sales for more details.
A new window opens to define the parameters of the printer. For Mimaki printers, the output method must be specified.
While for the some printers an Output folder should be set. - Select the Printer Active check box and leave this window open from now on.
The Printer Active option is a master switch controlling all the Print Queues set up for a particular printer. This option allows you to stop printing from all Print Queues (allocated to the same printer) at once, without having to stop each queue individually.
