where it says Location, click on the

A “Browse For” folder will open. This is where you will name the JTB le and select a save location.
This works like any other browser window when saving a le. When a save location is selected, click
OK at the bottom of the window.
The location path in the window now displays the path of where you selected to save your le.

newly created JTB le. To load the le for printing, drag and drop the le into the FastRIP Queue
window. The job will post in the list of current jobs (if any). Right click the job and select print.
Canceling a Print Job
Occasionally a print job will not print. This could be caused by a problem with the le, the printer not
being in the Load position when the print command is sent, a chip indicating a color is out of ink or other
issues. If you have ever owned an inkjet printer, you know that it is sometimes hard to “kill” a print job.
When you send a Print command from your graphics application or FastARTIST, the FastRIP does its
calculations and then sends the job to the Windows Print Manager. It is almost impossible to stop a print
job within the RIP if the job is still in the Print Manager. To open Print Manager, double-click on the
small printer icon on the lower right bottom of your computer screen (This section is called the Task Bar).
When the Print Manager opens, it shows the status of the print job. However, a job that is NOT printing
might still show as printing. To cancel a print job, click on the actual job le, go to the File menu and
select Cancel All Documents.
If there are printing problems when using FastRIP that require you to cancel a Print command, right-click
on the le and Abort the Print command. If you get a partial image on a shirt from the previous job, you
probably have not fully canceled the Print command in FastRIP.
If you must cancel a job while still printing, we recommend you power OFF both your computer and the
printer. This will clear the memory, cache and buffers in which the image may still reside.
