hi , Since last 2 weeks i am trying to print a job which has to be matched with the color print out ,what the client has given it to me, since we had told them that there will shade and color difference of cmyk print out and offset printing, but my client is very rigid and fussy about his...

mr gordo, since u r talking about companies who are or want to go for iso certifications, and following the standards, i would suggest you to give us more light on industry where there are not more than 30 employees, thanks.

i was wondering , the future of printing industry whether we will print on actual paper or the process of printing will completely change as time goes, What if the primer(base coate) is applied before printing any coated stock or the stock which is having low capacity of drying, ? i wonder this...

if u r a packaging printing , dont go for sm74, go for xl or cd, my strong advice on that. regardsa a.m

Mr gordo, i was wondering what should be the dot percentage on plate for calibration for fm screen 20 micron, i have already done plate calibration for 210 xm dot for coated as well for uncoated and my 50% dot on machine is coming 65 % or 64 , depending on the stock which i print. well i tried...

dear all, talking about the basic thought process of dotgain is 50 should come 63-64 thats the parameter world follows. i am more concerned abt the sharpness and contrast, according to me , maximum ink and minimum water with dotarea covering upto 64 , i think the target of c.m.y will achieve...

any suggestions for 2010 :)

i had tried high gloss with minimum coating layer, and it came out good. I think i am gaining confidence for coating the job and thanks to all of you guys... :)

i agree to what you said, viscosity is the killer, but i am confused regarding the layer of the coat, is it a "myth" , the more you release the coating the more shine you get or its the coating itself having the function of giving gloss or matte, suppose i use gloss varnish, if i release a...

well i will surely make a special coating for running non absorbent , which i already made once but failed, but will powdering it will solve my drying issue? and 35 mic will be too thick size? will I not get roughness on the printing after coating? pls advice,

well surely would share the findings... it was very logical , too much heat is no good for coating, it just needs a midas touch of hot air to clear the trouble, i just maintained the pile temp of 32 degree on the first side and 29 degree on back side with with manual settings ie ir on 10 or 15...

well well, finally i have started understanding the concept of coating :) though it took me a hell lot of time and money, due to waste of printed sheets set off problem, but cliche works on it , you have to pay to learn,. ... my standard delivery is a issue to me, as it takes a second or two...
