And Canva added Affinity Serif to their products. Adobe has got to be really worried. A little more marketing effort by an open source color system replacement will probably take the shine off for Pantone. Pantone can copyright the 'number system' but not the reflected light value. If I was...

Calibration.

Ditto. Different workflows/software though :cool:

Lot going on here. Sources? Per your 'best' workflow results. (I expect pushback on this) Embedded profiles? Not usually. Intents? Per your 'best' workflow results. (I expect pushback on this) We saw minor differences w/sources-intents between machines. Choose the best and stick to it for that...

3302's and all variants are known to be very sensitive to roller diameter. You will NOT be able to achieve good stripes or pressures when the rollers shrink below specification which happens every couple of years. So buy a couple of sets of rollers if you haven't. Not cheap but probably...

That's the real reason we jobbed it out - wouldn't have to worry about the quality. LOL

We only ran guy3 job. The other two we jobbed out. They'll be done per the original schedule. :)

The counters USUALLY (not sure on this model) have more digits to the left if you can peek under the plate where it is attached. You could have 235 or more. YMMV.

LOL. Who told you not to 'calibrate' the plate? It all comes down to the IMAGING system (laser) staying the same and the plate emulsion staying the same. So if your plate provider 'calibrated' your 'laser' device then "as long as" there are no changes in the laser intensity OR the plate emulsion...

Shot in the dark - are you ALSO using Indesign? If so you MAY have a different set of fonts 'automatically' loaded and they may interfere with QXP's usage. ??

Not possible with the technology you are using.

I believe I mentioned that the Epson uses a stochastic dot pattern, just like your press plates! The Epson 10000 evidently has three dot sizes - but the spec sheet noticeably leaves out the SIZES of the dots :-) and the 'dpi resolution' is 12XX x 7XX. So the dot 'size' is essentially static and...

You don't include the Model# of Epson in your post. If you are using a new-ish SureColor then your actual max dpi is 2400x1200 - I believe. We make plates at 2400x2400 Traditional Screen and it only approximates the press resolution. We notice this lower resolution mostly in the highlights below...

CUPS is a great system. Apple doesn't own it anymore. CUPS requires a stand alone driver. The printer the OP is talking about doesn't have a stand alone driver. The driver is installed on, and requires Windows Server internal elements, to function. :-) My HP printer does work with the driver...

We have an HP plotter that ONLY runs well with the HP Click app. Windows only. No server options. Sigh.
