We have a Canon Imagepress 10000 with the PrismaSync RIP. I usually just drop the PDF directly into a hotfolder since the RIP is pretty fast, but Jetletter can also export a PPML file to send to your RIP for really large stuff.

You can't do fixups in it. Think of your PDF as a shell layer and you're adding your VDP layers on top of it. You'll still need InDesign/Pitstop to fix and prep the files first, unless it's something basic, like adding an Indicia or generic text boxes Typically my design/prepress guys get the...

When I have some downtime I'll try to make a video with something generic so I don't expose a client's info. Do you have a specific thing you want it to do?

There's a tech shortage in Canon as well. I think the pay is pretty mediocre, and the hours are awful. Our techs all started retiring and no one new is coming in to take their place. Also, you might want to get in touch with your service manager if your tech is so reluctant to change parts out.

Quite a bit. I think an NXT is about 12-15k, 1175 quotes around $60k+

Jetletter is basically designed for a PDF workflow. You just link your PDF, add a text box and then link the data. You can do advanced programming if you want, but a lot of it is simple and visual.

It just seems like every book I see about printing is severely outdated.

All the books were written in the 70's and 80's as well.

Does it just sit there and hang after you activate your serial #? If so, I've had issues with that as well, but I contacted support and got it resolved.

Not sure if it'll help, but you're not telling it to print page 68 anywhere in your page settings. Maybe it's not inserting anything because you're not telling it to print? Also, you could try inserting the last page as the first page. you'd only need to fix one set at the end.

You may also need to find better vendors. We've had a few trade vendors that just don't appear to have any quality standards, and you could give them perfect files and never get a good product in return.

We sometimes sneak a sequence number into the endorsement line so it looks like it's a postal requirement. Otherwise you just need to be super careful and spot check frequently, because it's super easy to mess up if you don't have something to easily identify.

You might have luck here: Copytechnet Xerox forum

It's listed as a supported substrate in the brochure. I honestly can't think of a reason it'd be a problem. Also, congrats on having that machine. How do you like it so far?

I answered this in another thread too. We use Lorton Data A-Qua Mailer. It's super easy to use and rather quick.

You could look for it on the PC that has the driver in the "C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository" folder. Open it and try searching for "xerox", and hopefully you can just move those onto the 2nd pc and you can install that driver. That said, I doubt there were major improvements to...

It looks to me like your Fiery halftone screens are set up incorrectly. Hopefully a Fiery user can provide more info since I don't have a Fiery controller here, but it kinda looks like it's set to something like "error diffusion" instead of a line/dot screen. Also, could you scan your printouts...

Have you tried exporting as a PDF/X4? Any modern rip should support it, and it generally fixes weird issues with transparency and stuff like that. I dunno what RIP the KM-1 uses, but this website was helpful for me for setting up our Imagepress settings to make sure jobs printed properly.

Combining folders: Right click the taskbar > taskbar settings > combine taskbar buttons > never. Not sure why you think you need a special program for it. Almost every single annoyance you have is easily disabled by right clicking on the taskbar and disabling it. I'll agree that 90% of those...
