Product Description
FlexiSIGN is a sign design and RIP product from SA Incorporated ( www.saintl.biz ). It is
primarily used by the graphics designers and production operators to design and RIP/Print
signs and posters. The FlexiSIGN product version 10.0.2 allows for RIP and printing of
supported files to the KIP Color 80 and KIP C7800 printer.
The FlexiSIGN Production Manager software can be configured to RIP file data and
place it in a Hot Folder that is monitored by the KIP Color 80 or KIP C7800 IPS (KIP Unattend

The location of the FlexiSign software installation can be completed in one of two
ways. The Flexi software can reside #1) on a workstation PC or #2) on the KIP Color 80 IPS.
When FlexiSIGN is installed on a workstation PC, the Hot Folder for transmitting the final file
data would reside on a Network server and the KIP Color 80 IPS would then monitor this
folder for Flexi jobs. When FlexiSIGN is installed on the KIP Color 80 IPS, the Hot Folder can
reside on the C: drive of the KIP Color 80 IPS.
