You don't have a canned / pre-made grayscale profile that comes installed with the RIP? Really no need to profile for K only, tonality is the only thing controllable. I don't know either of those RIPs but what you need to do is turn off RGB/CMYK workflow and only have grayscale on to force the...

Assuming no service calls on a printer rated for what, 1 service call ever 50,000 8.5x11" clicks?

What RIP do you have? Most give an option for RGB, CMYK and Grayscale.

Thanks, I was thinking 20mil in my head.

It means one thousandths of an inch. So 2mil is .020 inches. Point like point board also is a reference to inches. So a 12pt is .012", 20pt is .020". This might help: http://www.paper-paper.com/weight.html

Just out of curiosity, have you asked the plate manufacturer for a best practice on reading the plate?

Banding in a gradient is different than banding in solid colors however.

With a transfer belt the drums no longer go into direct contact with the paper. Paper is very abrasive to the drum where a transfer belt is a nice smooth continuous surface. Because of that your drum life drops off much faster. You also have again a consistent surface which helps with a...

Haha no I wasn't suggesting it as a solution, I was just commenting on how the higher end devices have done away with those variables to solve the problem of banding in digital toner printing. The assumption is that you won't get perfect halftone solids on any device in the $20k range, some...

Who is going where this fall? What are you looking for? Anyone excited about any keynotes, break outs or training sessions?
