Problems printing raster images with a XES Synergix 8830 plotter

In the properties dialog for the XES Synergix 8830, on the Graphics tab, there is a check box for Enable RTL native mode resolution. Clear the check box, and the raster images should print correctly.

How do I plot to Reprodesk?

If the PRN file has been changed to a PLT file and the processing of the file still produces a black screen, after the file has been sent to Reprodesk, change the pen setting from standard (the default) to asinfile pen.

Other Plotting Considerations

Always use a color cartridge in the plotter when the Windows driver is set to use color mapping.

Use a monochrome cartridge in the plotter when the Windows driver is set to use either grayscale or black mapping. (A color cartridge may be used, but only the black ink will be used).
