Back of the envelope calculation - I have imaged and hand cut 6000 pages/plates/films. In my experience, yes, there will be un-imaged gutter between pages. This is dependent on the page length, and will be up to, but not greater than, the circumference of the capstan. It very likely would not...

Perhaps enable Center Capstan from the Options (enabled via the Accuset Touch Pad)

You can probably create a tint of that color rather than applying transparency. If it bleeds on three sides, 8.625 x 11.25 is NOT what I want. Setting up your document as 8.75 x 11.25 is NOT the same as defining .125 bleeds.

For everything under 20,000 impressions from basic line copy to tight register multi-color & pleasing 4-color I've run plate material through a basic imagesetter for years. Negs are just a burden. I'll hang plates for a book all day long and never move a dial or head clamp. The catch is a RIP...

The software for calibration of the AccuSet is AgfaSet. To change the density without calibration - while offline choose Cassette - right arrow to the density, input value, left arrow to the home position - Enter You would want to perform this for all the resultion values Cassette - right...

All I can say is that I place pdf's every day into ID and send to an Accuset 1000. The hardware RIP is nothing more than an HDD on the imagesetter - I have no doubts that a dedicated RIP would offer advantages. We're only talking about an A3 imagesetter. I hope nobody seeking advice on set-up or...

Accuset 1000 Plus has a hardware RIP . Mac's can connect via ethernet cable.

You want to Impose a document. InDesign includes a very basic feature: File > Print Booklet. It involves toggling from its primary Dialog to the Print Setup Dialog (from the button lower center) to define paper size, orientation, etc., You will not perform all the features built into a...

Other than "that's the way it's been done forever", is there a reason you would export to eps? Export pdf from ID eps is outdated and removes many features you would want maintained for consistant reproduction and exchange. "Do they become eps files?" - if you are wondering, does the jpg...

I just pulled a 4/4 job off the press (3302) after the last, final forth makeready - got to cocky and ran too fast on pass #3 - had a customer pressuring me to stop by their office, TODAY... cm are down and needs ky...the side to side bounce is too much for the reverse type. I had to find a way...

I prefaced my expanation with "Wildly innacurrate" - 1.78 and 1.79 seconds are guesses/theory only. The print engine creates the image and expects the paper to pass through the fuser and drums at a specific speed. If the paper travels slower than the anticipated speed, the image length will be...

I see you've opened a second thread - Different stock weights track at slightly different speed through the copier. The print engine - throughput speed - is calibrated for text weight stock. Possibly you're running a 210gsm which is tracking just a bit slower through the machine. (Wildly...

Adjust the verticle zoom in the copier

The knocking, as mentioned, was most likely the paper buckle; important for register. The Feeder roller is still feeding the stock after reaching the transfer grippers. The general set-it and forget it setting for the feeder roller is to - - Inch the machine until the feeder roller lowers to...

Happy Printer mentioned the best option for envelope work - Ryobi 2800 or 3200 also manufactured as the Itek 975. They are direct feed small presses, built stronger than any other small press. Hamada (to my memory) and Multi utilize a feeder board which improve multi pass registration, but will...

Yep, the screen angles.

Small single color presses are going to be termed duplicators. All were able to be equiped with a T-Head (developed/manufactured by Townsend Industries, referred to simply as T-Heads) for two color work. Their consistency/abilities is not as full as a true press unit due to there small size and...

I cancelled a reply yesterday; here's my 2 cents. A decent operator can easily push 8000 tabloid/A3 sheets per hour (subtract 10% for load time with a "loadable while running feeder"; 20% load time a AB Dick 9800 or Ryobi 3200). (I'd be running balls to the walls 10,000 iph after the first...

I am trying to match a sample; situation - A local shop has produced a letterhead on Bizhub 6501. The rep for the end user has provided us pdf file. I have produced a sample on my Bizhub 5500. The file uses a gradient, yellow which starts at 0,3,13,0. All my colors are spot on to the sample...

There are four rocker switches in the access panel (blue cover under the feeder belts). Turn them off.
