Here is a step by step manual guide for AGFA-AccuSet 1000 software installation process. Click Reinstall driver button. Actix GraphicsEngine 32VL Plus (S3).
We are using a AGFA AccuSet 800 Plus Imagesetter here. We've been using Mac OS X with Classic and OS 9.2.2. In 9.2.2, all our applications can make use of the PPD for the 800, allowing proper linescreen defining and resolution for all our seperations. All the applications we use (Quark, Illustrator, Freehand, Pagemaker, InDesign, and Acrobat) can print and make use of the Print dialog boxes just fine, all the options from the PPD are availible. This is not the same in OS X. If we use the OS 9 PPD, we get options. If we use a PPD for anopther AGFA product, we can still print, and we get the resolution options.
I wanted to find out if anyone has seen a good imagesetter PPD that works with this model AGFA or can help troubleshoot? Are there any specific forums or FAQs in this area. Starline a91 instrukciya zapusk po temperature.
I have visited the AGFA website and there is very llittle to no support for this product in OS X. Apple's website has provided a lot of information for general printing procedures, but nothing specific.:TUCK. RE: OS X AGFA PPD Imagesetter issue (TechnicalUser) 22 Sep 03 13:37.
What PPD have you been able to get to work under OSX? I have an Agfa Accuset 1000 Plus with a Viper RIP. Print Center will not recognize the PPD, and my Mac sees the RIP, but hangs it up trying to commuicate with it. All I want to do is make PostScript files that take advantage of what my imagesetter and RIP can do. This is not an issue for Illustrator 10 or 11 or for InDesign because they use their own print engines and recognize my PPD.
But Quark 6 is a different story, it relies on a printer configured in Print Center. If you find anything out, please let me know. Right now I'm tyring to re-write my PPD to try to make it OS X friendly.
Chuck RE: OS X AGFA PPD Imagesetter issue. We have tried using the OS 9 PPD, and the converted OS 9 to X PPDs. There was all the ones from OS X. We have been having the same issues with any application in OS X, Quark 6 specifically. Trying to get the RIP to take the file and process it correctly has been very difficult.
We are using the Viper RIP too. Agfa has no support for this issue as far as I can find. Whenever we run a job, it comes out as all default settings, not what was setup in the Print Dialog boxes.:TUCK.
RE: OS X AGFA PPD Imagesetter issue (TechnicalUser) 9 Nov 03 22:09. Instead of trying to re-write the PPD, I found one that works. Go to Adobe's site () to their downloads section and look for the PPD section. You will find a listing for AGFA. Download it and in it are PPDs for all of AGFA's imagesetters, but these are ones that I never saw before.
The one that you want is called 'AGFA AccuSet 800-A' (PS Level 2). This PPD is really for the Taipan RIP, but it will also work with the VIPER.
It may give you a 'PSE Environment' warning, but it still works. I am using the 'AGFA AccuSet 1000W-A' (PS Level 2) and it works for me. Here is my setup: Accuset 1000 Plus VIPER 1.9.2 RIP (PS Level 2) running on a Mac.
Our workflow is to make PostScript files of everything that we want to image and drop them into a 'HOT Folder' and set the RIP to 'Hot Folder' mode. We do not image anything directly to the RIP. We also have all of our Mac's as dual boot machines and do most of our work in OS 9 (not Classic mode under OS X). The PPD that we use under OS 9 is from 1998 ('AC1000.PPD') and we started using it when Quark 4 came out. This PPD solved page orientation problems that we were having with Quark 4 and our old PPD which was 'Agfa Accuset 1000.ppd' Now our OS 9 PPD (AC1000.PPD) is a PPD Format '4.2' (you can open a PPD in any text editor to see the Format Version Type.) Print Center under OS X does not like this PPD and fails to use it. Even setting up a 'Virtual PS Printer' using the IP printing and 'localhost' stuff does not work correctly. And 'Auto Setup under OS X cannot commuicate correctly to the VIPER RIP--it does see it and communicates with it, but the answers that the VIPER gives OS X or the queries from OS X cause the session to hang and fail.
