Nothing printing (using legacy AccuRIP software)

Received a PostScript Error or nothing is printing (AccuRIP® Black Pearl, Ruby, or 1.03)?

STEPS:

1.  Restart the printer and computer. If using a sheet feed printer load a few sheets of plain paper. If using a roll of film leave the roll installed.
2.  With the legacy AccuRIP version open locate the toggle switch next to the printer icon. 

- if it is Red (off) slide it to the left Green (on) position

- if it IS ON, switch OFF then back ON

NOTE: if anything was stuck it will now print. If this doesn't fix things, move to the next steps.

1.  From the File Menu choose TEST print. Does that print? 
2. If that prints open Adobe Illustrator or Corel Draw, make a NEW blank page, create a simple square then print through the AccuRIP driver. If the file from Adobe or Corel prints you are resolved.
3.  Try to print your previous failed file. If it fails there is a PostScript issue in that file that needs resolving. Try moving the file to a NEW page and/or convert any fonts to curves or outlines. 

IMPORTANT NOTE: All legacy software prior to AccuRIP Emerald and Separation Studio NXT have officially been discontinued and no longer supported as of January 2023; any issues with legacy software will require either the trial of Emerald/NXT to be downloaded or purchases made.
