Second day on the job and run into my first major issue. Using Prisma to feed a canon 10,000 VP and it lost its ability to offset stacks. Yes, we turned it off and turned it on again.
I don't feel tardy...

You turned it off and on again, but did you check the plugs? Might have one not making a good connection.

I should notate that in the GUI it lost its ability. Not a mechanical failure. Someone here was able to fix it through the software.

Whoops, thought this was an old Scitex thread.

Yeah... I never heard of Scitex Prisma until I started trying to research Canon PrismaSync.

Conversely, the only Prisma I ever touched (of heard of) was the Scitex equip   :))

wasn't that the Prisma Whisper Station?

That's what we used to impose our Scitex files before outputting to film....    back in the day

I remember Prisma for sure, Whisper sounds "faintly" familiar.
Did you output film on a Raystar?
They did have pretty cool names.

Conversely the shop I worked at when I moved up to Sac from the Bay had a Scitex RIP. We used Preps (when it was Creo) to impose our files before sending to a Lotem.

ours was a Lotem 400, we later upgraded to the 800 (for 40 inch films)

Ah, in the Brisq days we had a Dolev 800. The Raystar was kinda cool because it was not only a film output device, but was also a flat bed "linework" scanner.

Just wondering if anyone is using PRISMASync/PRISMAPrepare so if I need to learn some tricks, I know who to ask
