Configure ONYX Software for White Ink

Introduction

This section describes how to configure ONYX software (either THRIVE or ProductionHouse) to recognize white ink workflow elements and thus allow you to apply the approach that is best for your print job application. In order for the ONYX software to successfully address white ink workflow data, there are options in the software that must be configured. It also explains how you need to use specific ONYX media profiles to prepare white ink print jobs.

NOTE

Step 1 and 2 below are required for ProductionHouse only. Step 3 is needed for both ProductionHouse and THRIVE.

Procedure

  1. Within Rip-Queue, access the Configure Rip Options Palette.
    Set up ONYX RIP
  2. Once here, ensure that Overprint is turned on (checked).
  3. In your Quick Set, or in Preflight/Job Properties/Postscript turn off two-stage processing (make sure the box is not checked).
    Turn off Two Stage Processing

    ONYX software will now accept print jobs with white ink or varnish data. To prepare a print job for white ink you need to use an ONYX media profile (media model) as shown below.
