Printing Jobs on the GERBER SOLARA ION

Tip: If ink does contact the table when printing in full bleed mode, carefully remove the ink with
a straight edge razor blade. It should lift off easily if you remove it promptly. The longer the ink
remains on the table, the stronger it adheres, and the more difficult it can be to remove. After
removing ink, spray the area with isopropyl alcohol and wipe it clean.
Printing double-sided, full-bleed
To print double-sided, full bleed jobs
1 Measure the sign blank to make sure that you know the exact height and width of the
substrate. In this example the sign blank is exactly 18" (457.2mm) wide and exactly 24"
(609.6mm) high.
2 In Onyx RIP-Queue, click Configure Printer. On the Page Sizes tab, click Add to create
a new, Custom page size. Enter a width and height that is 0.75" (19.05mm) larger than
the exact width and height of sign blank that you measured. In this example the width
to enter is 18.75" (476.25mm) and the page height to enter is 24.75" (628.65mm).
3 Either in Onyx (or in your design program), resize the job by 0.75" (19.05mm) in each
direction. So an 18" x 24" (457.2mm x 609.6mm) job would be resized to 18.75" x 24.75"
(476.25mm x 628.65mm) to allow the printing to go 0.375” (9.52mm) beyond the sign
blank on all sides.
