Problem/Question
No rip processes are performed. No RipEngine seems to be active.
How to change the number of active RipEngines?
At least one RipEngine is required to perform a rip process. Raster performance of the Ergosoft RipEngine mainly depends on the processor.
It is possible to configure the RipEngine so it uses multiple cores.
Solution/Work-Around
- Open the Ergosoft ControlCenter
- Select the tab "RIP & Programs"
- Control how many RipEngines started in the "RipEngines to be managed" field
In addition you can change
- the number of automatically started RipEngines
- the number of threads to be used per RipEngine
You can also see the maximum count of available RipEngines.
In Ergosoft 16 Sequoia there are additional things to consider:
- The number of RipEngines can be distributed to the output workstations according to your requirements
- The total number of RipEngines to be distributed depends on your license
- The standard quantity for Sequoia are sixteen (16)
- The default setting for the number of RipEngines on each Sequoia workstation is 0
