Actually Adobe bridge is a great file viewer for photos, illustrations & vids. It's more so getting use to using it.

I ended up getting an IDEAL ideal 4850 with in budget.

I think OP means as a preview like windows photo viewer. Or view icons as the image.

press the windows key and search "high contrast" then it'll take you to a screen where you can turn high contrast on and off. That's probably the issue.

Linearisation is important. - you shouldn't be skipping steps. Except G7, that's absolutely useless for inkjets. Follow everything that FrankW said.

Have you opened a bunch of files and checked task manager to see the CPU usage? x21 can utilise multi threading. the fact your cpu is only 4c /4t. I believe it’s bottle knocking. when I put x21 on my old Xeon workstation with 4c / 8t it would lock up on me every time I rip a file.

Wishing you guys the best of luck! New space, better workflows!

So you want a fast, high quality printer, with good inks, good UI, with all the bells and whistles and so on... So you want a Swissqprint at Mimaki JFX prices?

Onyx X21 is lightyear's ahead of X11. How many print licences / rip engines do you have? How many cores does the CPU have? or what i5 is it? (i5 7600k for example?)

Pay someone to make your media profiles or invest in the equipment to make your own. Just because canned profiles are not available, it's not the end of the world.

Let me give you some help. When posting on a forum, try using the appropriate sub forms, like this one - https://www.signs101.com/forums/mimaki.208/ When creating a title. don't put your prints name. put the problem you're having, otherwise no one will bother reading a thread that has your...

This guy has a oce Arizona 550gt.. I don’t think it costs $0.79 to print that size sheet.

That's helpful! Ive seen that one on alibaba. probably 1k + delivery. It's either that, or there's a few second hand ones that are german, but manual backstop. Im leaning towards the manual one as it's easily serviceable.

you're comparing 2 entry levels and 1 production level machine... What are your requirements? A lot of inks will have certifications like greenguard gold etc. and other health and safety requirements. I know the USA are less strict vs Australia on inks though.

Oh yes i was looking at something similar but chinese.

I forgot the CPU i came from, but it was a 4c/8t. Xeon. i was bottlenecking it so badly, it would lock up on me. the 5950x is leaps and bounds over it. But.. it depends on how many RIP engines you run. As signmeup says, onyx is crap at multicore. it's somewhat better these days, but still...

thanks, that would be great!

Which ones/brands? I was looking at something called "500v9" there's many brands etc of this. but i cannot find anyone using one or talking about them. Electric, hydraulic. either one. i think "electric paper cutters" are what they're called in the print world. i could be wrong.

Anyone here use electric paper cutters / Guillotines? To cut stacks of paper or stickers etc? Looking at options for something up to 500mm wide. Either get a cheap old second hand one. or possibly a chinese one from alibaba, i need something to get by for now.

Onyx has a youtube channel with a lot of tutorials. https://www.youtube.com/c/OnyxGraphicsONYXTV/videos
