Installation
Info
In the past, different cutting devices required separate licenses: CutServer for roll-to-roll cutters, GrandCut (A or B) for flatbed cutters, and a cut option for trimmers. This resulted in different installation methods depending on the device.
Today, annual subscribers and perpetual license holders with CalderaCare can use any CalderaRIP‑supported cutting device without an additional license.
| Roll-to-Roll (Legacy CutServer) | |
| Flatbed (Legacy GrandCut A/B) |

Marks
The following images show the default marks for each of the three drivers:
HP Latex Cutter |
HP Latex Plus |
HP Latex Plus OPOS Xtra |
You can adjust the placement, spacing, and margins of these marks in the Tools > Marks and margins tab. You can also add marks in the Page Setup > Marks tab.
Info
If your device is equipped with an OPOS Xtra sensor, you may want to set up a more complex workflow using the OPOS Xtra cutter with the HP Latex Plus OPOS Xtra driver.
This workflow has some limitations: it is not recommended for images larger than 500 mm, does not work with Contour Nesting, and requires margin adjustments.
For more information, see: How to use a cutter/trimmer equipped with OPOS Xtra?
