RIP Engines configuration

RIP Engines configuration

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

  1. Open the Ergosoft ControlCenter 
  2. Select the tab "RIP & Programs"
  3. Set the "Count of RipEngines automatically started" 
The following tutorial illustrates the above steps.


In Ergosoft Networked Department, there are additional things to consider:
  1. The number of RipEngines can be distributed to the Client stations according to your requirements
  2. The total number of RipEngines to be distributed depends on your license
  3. The default setting for the number of RipEngines on each workstation is 0
