    InkZone not working when InkZone Connect is activated

    For the past month we have been having issues with our InkZone closed loop system on our Heidelberg cd 102 console. We can get the ink presets to load from Di-Plot and preset the Ink Keys only if the InkZone Connect function is disabled. However when it is disabled the Intellitrax scanner...

    running os 10.6 vm on 10.10 el capitan

    I'm currently running OS X 10.6 in a VirtualBox on a OS X 10.10.5 iMac. I mostly just use it for creating Preps 5 templates for Prinergy 5.1. I have managed to get Workshop running under 10.10.5 after downgrading Java. Another option you have is to load it on a PC for all functionality.

    XMF or Prinergy

    WOW. $6600 annual support for Kodak Prinergy? They quoted me twice as much as that. I wouldn't mind if they were faster with patches when new OS X versions are released. Just out of curiosity, are you bundling your consumables for this deal?

    ElecRoc workflow

    Exactly. According to them their working files can remain vector until output similar to Prinergy. Trapping is vector based too. They created the whole system and it is not based on Adobe, Harlequin or Ghostscript. I would be interesting to see how it works though. I noticed Xante Symphony is...

    Prinergy Workshop and Yosemite

    This is why I have problems justifying the ridiculous support costs that Kodak insists you buy when upgrading to a newer version of Prinergy. They are in no hurry to fix Java and OS conflicts. Should they be offering Support rebates for the time it takes them to fix an issue?

    Xitron Sierra vs Kodak Prinergy

    Thanks Earl. What kind of work do you print? Any imposition or trapping issue you have run into? On another note, what are you using for online proofing now? thanks, Al

    Xitron Sierra vs Kodak Prinergy

    We are looking to upgrade our current workflow from Kodak Prinergy 5.1. Kodak gave us a very competitive upgrade price but the required service contract is cost prohibitive. I have started investigating other workflows base on the Adobe PDF Print Engine. Besides Kodak Prinergy it looks like...
