Hey all! first post, long time browser of topics.
Recently got a hold of a file that I am trying to send to print, however since I am just being used as a middle man in the operation, I am kinda stuck trying to solve a problem that I have no clue how it is coming up.
I have a file that is printing with 2 different quarter-tone builds under the G7 standards, Running the same file through the set up and RIP process one week will give me Quarter tone Values of 22,26,22,0 (CMYK), and running it through the following week will give me quarter tone values or 26,29,25,0 (CMYK). They are the same native AI file, running through the same RIP work flow, and under the same press profile. But when they are actually printed the color comes out different.
any thoughts on the subject would be most appreciated.
