I know many press operators who would disagree with that statement. Screened patches of known values are nice to use when determining dot gain.

I calculate creep on anything 24-pages and higher. If the total push-out is less than 1/16" than I don't even bother with an adjustment.

Was it previously under a service contract? What kind of RIP is it coming with? How many plate has it imaged? Is there any automation? That being said/asked... Screen devices are rock-solid.

I have used them. Especially at fast food restaurants. If the experience was as to be expected I don't do it. But if it was exceptionally good or poor I'll participate.

I'm speechless. Is selling off NexPress in the future? George Eastman must be rolling in his grave (technically he was cremated).

As I am finding out, most flexo shops only send a PDF proof for approval. In the offset world, nearly every job had a physical proof made. And these proofs would also show traps. The question is, whether you are using Esko or PACKZ, do you show traps on your PDF proofs?

The most popular iteration of the 3.5" disk had storage of 1.44Mb. In my graveyard I still have a 2Gb SCSI Iomega Jaz Drive. Does anyone remember the 100Mb Zip drive and the "Click of Death"?

Where are you located?

I sent you a PM.

As stated in my previous post, I am a noob in flexo. So please excuse my ignorance and rudimentary questions. We have: 1 - Mark Andy P5 2 - Marc Andy 2200 1 - Webtron 650 All are very well maintained. We are using HD ASAHI plates imaged on a Esko CDI Spark 3530. We use an outside vendor for...

I was in offset for 30 years as well! I am looking forward to the challenge.

Just a few weeks ago, I would have never gotten the joke!

Hello all. After many, many years in offset printing prepress, I have made the move to flexo. I think I will pick it up just fine, but I might be relying on you geniuses here @ PP for some pointers!

I know that I will get flamed for this... (I am a US citizen) Trudeau is a fantastic leader. Canada is a great country. Honestly, Canada is what the United States of America could be. But we are moving in the wrong direction. I used to live in the state of Montana so I would frequently travel...

The documentation is OK at best. A lot of the terms and methodology seem counter-intuitive. But you will get the hang of it over time! It might also be that the tech that installed our system was new and only had a few other installation under his belt.

We have had the ImpoProof with the two Canon iPF8400S printers for about 3 years now. It replaced a PreProofer with 2 EPSON 9880 printers that we have had for about 10 years. Before that we had a HP DesignJet with a TechSage SpinJet accessory. The ImpoProof has the best back-up by far, but also...

I paid for my SMA last week. But I did't receive the licensing key yet. So I asked my re-seller when I will be getting it. Below is his response. "Hi Thom XChange US is waiting on Enfocus to deliver the v2018 licensing and hope to get these to you soon. In the meantime if any of the users need...

I have been in printing for 29 years. I am still as dumb as ever when it comes to identifying fonts.

Damn... I guess that 6 hours of postal training yesterday wore me out more than I thought.

Actually most ink manufactured today is. Edamame is an immature soybean in the pod. Virtually all offset inks are soy-based.
