Can't get my HP plotters recognized in PrintFab
Posted: Tue Feb 02, 2021 6:43 am
Hello,
I am on a Windows 7 PC and I have two HP Z5200 plotters that I print to. On a rare occasion I have had to print very large pdf files and I can usually get things to work with a work-around. However, I have a situation where I need to print a pdf file that is 42" x 1140" and that size exceeds the postscript limit. A few years ago I had an Epson Stylus Pro 9800 with Colorburst rip and it worked pretty well. So now I am looking for an inexpensive RIP for very limited situations. I really like what I am seeing with PrintFab, but, I can not get either of my plotters recognized. I have both Ip address and have tried the network, the other port and the already set up options and nothing seems to work. Not sure what I am missing. I am on the Trial as of an hour ago and if we can get this to work I would live to purchase a license. The internal Ip's are 192.168.86.39 and 192.168.86.245. Please help so I can buy this software. Thanks. Kim H.
