SoftRIP Computer Transfer

This page explains how to manually copy settings from one SoftRIP installation to another, or between two computers.

SoftRIP Installations

You'll want to first identify your SoftRIP installation. This should be located on the base of your (C:) drive in either a wwrip80/81 or WasatchSoftRIP folder.

Files to Copy

You'll need to locate and copy the below files to be transferred to the new installation/PC. We'd recommend placing all of these files into their own folder prior to transferring.

• Configurations (Folder)


• config


• PRINTER(1-8)


• tcpipspoolers (File won't be present if you connect via USB only)


• inksets (This folder will only be required if you utilize Custom Inksets)


• templates (Folder - only needed if you utilize Variable Data Printing)


• \halftones\data (You'll need to grab the data folder within the halftones folder if you utilize Wasatch Precision Rosette screens)

New Installation

On the new computer, download the latest version of SoftRIP from our website. Proceeding through the installer should download the application to a WasatchSoftRIP folder.

Placing Files into New Install

You can then bring all the previously copied files onto your new system/install. You'll want to drop all files into the base of the newest WasatchSoftRIP folder, being sure to choose to "Replace" any existing files. (If you did copy the "data" folder, you'll want to place that in WasatchSoftRIP\halftones)

Launching new Install

You can now launch your new SoftRIP installation, and should have access to all your previous settings. You'll want to confirm you have the correct Image Configuration selected by navigating to Print Setup(Blue Gears) and using the Image Configuration drop-down. If you run into any issues, feel free to reach out to the Support Team for further assistance.
