Issues printing large files from 32-bit applications on a 64-bit operating system:
There appear to be a number of known issues associated with printing from 32-bit applications (CorelDraw, Illustrator, etc) that are installed on 64-bit operating systems. Most graphics software applications were designed for 32-bit computing, and they operate fairly well in a 64-bit environment, but we have heard and read on the Internet that many manufacturers of output devices, like large format printers, are having difficulty when printing large files from these 32-bit applications on 64-bit operating systems. It’s been suggested that the problem lies within one of the Windows print spoolers.
In Epilog’s case, the issues reported to us have been with large files, especially when printed at 1200 DPI, large stamp files, or large 3D files. If you run these types of jobs you should seriously consider the 32-bit versions of Windows Vista or Windows 7. Please check back with us as we will provide updates as new information becomes available. |
