Here's a tricky one: We just had a new DCS DirectJet 1024UV installed with the new RP9 queue program (next version up from the current RP8 and not a full release I think) so we can send jobs from Corel X5 instead of the DCS program. Only the jobs all go through to the RP9 as only the image area, not the full page 'as is' in Corel.
I'll try to explain - the job would be on, say an A4 page, in Corel with text and images centered in the middle of the 'Page' using around half the full page size, not borders or outlines. When the page is sent through to RP9 (using the application launch button) the job appears on the DirectJet program as only the text and images, at 100% scale, but located right up in the 0 0 point with no surrounding 'page', not the full A4 job as shown on Corel. For another example, if you had the full A4 page in Corel and put a single square block in the bottom right corner, expecting to put an A4 sheet in the DirectJet media tray and have your square block print on the bottom right corner; when sent through to the RP9 program the same square block appears nested in the top 0 0 mark, essentially the top left corner of the sheet loaded in the machine.
Any ideas on how the get the full page (essentially blank area surrounding the images/text being printed) to go through to the DirectJet printer as shown in Corel would be appreciated.
Our installer is also looking into a solution, but the people here have always been helpful and full of good advice, I thought we would try here too. Thanks in advance.
BTW: we are using Windows XP sp3, Corel X5, DCS RP9, DCS 1024UV DirectJet.
