Thank you for quick response. The point is that customer wants high LPI AM-screning (300 lpi and higher) and specifically don't want Staccato screening (which we have (20 u) and regulary use). We use Kodak Magnus VLF (with Square Spot) and Sonora X plate.

One of our large customers wants to print with a hybrid screening. He does not like Stoccato screening. As far as I remember from the presentation at GUA, this Maxton SX is a more modern way of screening and provides a smooth transition from FM to AM in highlights and from AM to FM in shadows...

Does someone use Kodak Maxtone SX on offset press? Maybe there is any successful story about implementation in offset printing? Any information will be helpful.

Dear all, what is shelf life of Pantone inks for sheetfeed offset? Especially interested in neon series (e.g. Pantone 805C).

Ask the supplier to the room requirements: 1. Space requirements 2. Temperature and humidity 3. Communications (electricity, compressed air, water ...) Ask them to send a drawing of your model. Good luck! :)

Anyone using this workflow (Beijing Founder Electronics Co, China)? What can you say? Any help is appreciated.

Hi all, We have tested i1 Pro 2 (borrowed it from colleagues) - in 'ruler' mode, everything works. Thank you all for your help!

We use Kodak ColorFlow 1.2.6.2.65 with old X-rite i1 Pro. It seems to me the device is broken - long calibration, unstable work... When i ran diagnostic, resaults were the follows: Dark measurement count: 29196 Lamp burning time: 89534.3 seconds Spot measurement count: 11877 Scan measurement...

How to сlean spinner with which liquid? On picture in user manual we found picture - cotton swab and a bottle labeled "solvent". So, the question is - what liquid should we use - solvent or something else ? Any help is appreciated.

We have Kodak Magnus VLF with thermal head 3.5 (X-speed, Quantum). Recently we began to use Agfa Thermostar P970&P960 instead of Kodak Electra XD&Kodak Capricorn. When we use periodic screening - everything is ok. But when we use Staccato 20 micron - we see banding on plate (perpendicular to...
