  • how long does it take to rip & print a solid colour?

    Posted by Peter Normington on 9 May 2008 at 19:21

    I am trying to print 20m of a single colour VPS gets to 34% and goes no further, or doesn’t appear to do, I have had a beer and come back and still the same. is this normall? I have never printed so much as a solid colour before. any help or advice would be appreciated,

    Ignore above, the job suddenly processed, I didnt expect so long for a single colour..

    if using shiraz and PDF, the PDF format has 5mtr page size limit.

    what error message coming up?

    if you have an image or tiling a bitmap with shiraz, make sure it is the correct way around, if 90degrees then RIP will take 70% longer

    Dave it didnt freeze, it eventually processed the job, I was just surprised that it would take so long for a single colour,

    but the size must be relevant to the time the rip takes, not the number of colours?
