My shop is about to buy a cutter to replace one that's just gone kaput. We are hoping to implement some automation with JDF or CIP3/4. Our new Sierra RIP can natively output JDF, but not CIP3/4 without a separate licen$e. My understanding is that the cutter (Polar 92X) accepts CIP3 info, but not CIP4 or JDF, unless we were to add a Microcut device to the cutter.
Can anyone shed any light on which direction might be the best for us? No one at the shop is versed in cutter automation or JDF stuff, so any basic information on what we might need to know would be greatly appreciated.
