    Errors when processing / ripping PDF

    I've had good luck processing "corrupt" PDFs through Ghostscript. Its a command-line application, completely open source. It all depends on "what" is corrupt... gswin64 -dBATCH -dNOPAUS -o ".\Resaved\Filename_Date_Repaired.pdf" -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -dPDFSETTINGS=/prepress "Filename"...

    Corner of paper folding on Versant 280

    we had very similar issues with our Versant 4100. First, NCR is weird on the Versant. For us, we had to disable "Multi feed detection" in the stock's profile. Something about the method in which Xerox/Fuji detects multi-feeds gets a false trigger on our NCR. The dog-earing is a hard one. it...

    Ricoh 9210 - Shrinkage

    **additional note, if you manually correct for the .7% of magnification. You will also need to correct your lead edge and center. FYI, what I recommend doing is create a test file of 1" grids. Print and measure between the first and last lines, you should have EXACTLY 17" (lengthwise) on a...

    Ricoh 9210 - Shrinkage

    1/16th of an inch of shrinkage is only about 0.7% of shrinkage, assuming a 9x11 tab, 2up on 13x19. most engines and RIPs have profiles/calibrations for each stock, you might just need to update your profile. Also make sure you don't have "print to fit" or "scale to fit" turned on. updating...

    Xerox SquareFold Trimmer skips square-fold randomly

    I did that little trick right in front of a Xerox tech and you would have thought I did some kind of voodoo... he was like "HOW DID YOU DO THAT?!?" LOL

    Xerox SquareFold Trimmer skips square-fold randomly

    We (likely) have the exact square-fold/face trimmer on our Xerox as you do, they are pretty universal, all made for Fuji, with the Xerox name slapped on them. We have the same random issues, and we often can attribute it to dirty sensors and/or trim crossing the sensor at the same time as the...

    OCR applications/services?

    Tesseract is one thing I am looking at. I remember way back when it was bleeding edge, had no idea until recently that it was still being developed by Google. as for AI/cloud, we are talking about scanned school curriculum... our Senior network admin wanted to lock down our file share against...

    Duplo DC-618 Skewing In Machine

    ** side note. you've had your machine for quite some time, check that a module mounting surface isn't damaged (i.e. was it dropped?)

    Duplo DC-618 Skewing In Machine

    vacuum won't help on anything as heavy as 200 gsm or heavier... I found lowering only helped on 90gm or lighter my guess is you have a module that isn't sitting all the way down inside, or you have a roller (or rollers) as your culprit pins full seated and thumb nuts snug: either one or more...

    Duplo DC-618 Skewing In Machine

    how thick is your material? if it is light material, turn down the vacuum. That solved a bunch of feed issues I had what all is coming out skewed? creasing? cuts across? cuts in both directions? Are all of your modules completely seated into the machine?

    Windows fiery driver says door is open..

    yeah.. basically... lol what makes no sense is how often it will happen... you will go months and then suddenly, almost daily, one or more of your machines will just come up "offline". Then you'll go back to months without the issue.

    OCR applications/services?

    Every year, we do a ton of scanning/rescanning, of hard copy curriculum. Or worse, they do it themselves on a MFP with the worst possible scan settings. Does any regularly use/can recommend an OCR application or even service that very accurately creates optimized PDFs? I was just looking at...

    Windows fiery driver says door is open..

    I think the *only* services that doesn't rely on SNMP is Fiery (command workstation, hot folders, etc) itself. SNMP is vendor agnostic, so most software use SNMP for status and keep-alive connectivity.

    EX-i 80 won’t pick up any IP at cold-start—only comes alive after “DHCP → BOOTP → DHCP” trick Versant 80

    it could be the NIC in your device, could also be a bad port/connection between the cabling and the switch its connected to. I'd try a brand new ethernet cable, hook it to a desktop switch and plug that switch into another network port. Try to completely rule out the cable/wall outlet/network...

    Windows fiery driver says door is open..

    Fiery has really weird issues on Windows PCs where devices will randomly come up as offline. I think its a bad/bogus SNMP stack being relayed from the printer through the fiery, and because its bogus it never never gives the "all clear" to come back to online? I've never gotten an explanation...

    Quite Imposing: De-Imposing a booklet?

    I'm not a programmer, but I'm good at deciphering a program/script when I can cross-reference the syntax. I might be able to work out how to get this to work. I do, I might just create a variable and concatenate a save-as string. using sd.url + "\" + sd.info.title + "_pages.pdf"

    Quite Imposing: De-Imposing a booklet?

    woops... that over writes the original file, good thing it was marked read only. I'm still having issues with the script causing Acrobat to crash. Specifically when I have the script saved as an Action under the Action Wizard. If I comment out the "sd.closeDoc(true);", it stops crashing.
