Before printing packages, RipLynx! must be set up so that the rendered images go to the correct folder or correct printer. Multiple configurations may be created so that different folders or printers can be used with RipLynx!.

  1. First, open RipLynx! and select Preferences from the File menu

  2. Next, choose the Packages tab. Click the Add button to start a new configuration

  3. Type the name of the configuration in the Description field

  4. Set the Cut Line Width to the number of pixels to put between subunits

  5. If needed, click Rotate 90 Degrees to rotate all images rendered by RipLynx! to accommodate your printer needs

Print to Image

To send images to a designated folder on your computer, select Print to Image.

Click the […] button to navigate to the printer’s folder. If the folder is accessed over a network, it is best to navigate directly to the folder instead of using a mapped drive.

Once the folder is selected, type in \[Job.Name] to the end of the path to make a new subfolder for each job that is printed. Next, set the DPI, or resolution, for printing and the Image Type to create – TIFF, JPEG, TARGA or BMP.

To send a print script along with your prints to your folder, or to drive some printers, select Enable Print Script and choose your printer from the drop-down list. Use the Config button to configure the print script to your needs.

Print to Printer

To send prints directly to a Windows driven printer, be sure that Print to Image is unchecked. Then, simply choose the printer from the list of installed printers.
