We recently installed a Ricoh Pro C5100s and I have a couple of questions: 1: Is it possible to run a job on the Ricoh and then take it out to our offset sheetfed department and apply INX OSF Vision Plus varnish? Of course there is the static issues to contend with in the feeder. More concerned...

Hi everyone, can someone out there help us figure out the name of the font used in the logo attached. It will require the way back machine...hopefully someone's is still operational:) Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone, all of a sudden our 9880 will not recognize the maintenance tank on the right side. I have cleaned the chips on both the machine & the tank. I even tried putting in a brad new tank, it just will not recognize that there is a tank installed. It was just sitting idle when this...

I just have 2 very quick questions about XMF workflow: 1: Once the PDF is processed is the resulting PDF still editable? i.e. altering text lines, deleting items, etc. 2: Can traps be edited? Thanks

Hello everyone, I was just wondering if anyone out there is using the Brillia HD LH-NI3 plates from FUJI? If so what are your thoughts about them. Do they need to be pre or post backed regardless of run length? Especially interested in comparisons between the FUJI plate and the KODAK Trillian...

Font permissions will not allow the font to be outlined in PitStop. Converting the text to outlines in InDesign works. We just subbed out the fonts and told the customer to review their InSite proofs VERY carefully for reflow, etc to keep the job going.

Could someone please tell me what this error truly means "3221225477 - ACCESS_VIOLATION.[1190010]" Prinergy version 5.1.2.3.8 and before the band wagon of "you know you should upgrade to 5.2" starts, we have some hardware issues that are preventing us from doing so right now. I have been out to...

Can anyone tell me if these educational webinars they are offering are free? I have been told I can "window shop" only. We currently have Prinergy 5 and I am interested in what 6 would have to offer. Thanks in advance.

The Magnus is a platesetter, are you talking about the chiller on your processor? If so what is the make of the chiller?

Thanks Joe, we will try that. I now have a screen capture :-)

I will forward this to the operator who is affected by this and see if that works. I have my doubts since it happens so sporadically but we will give it a whirl. Thanks Johnny

Hello Everyone- We have having a completely random issue with InSite preview mode on one Mac (OS 10.6.8). Sometimes when you open a job in preview mode the pages are not displayed full size and sliders appear on two sides of each page. Sometimes if you close preview and reopen they go...

We worked very long and hard with this customer to get them to build their files using the appropriate Pantone swatch plus there are graphics involved so I would hate to take a risk that they would come out incorrectly. I feel it is a safer bet to apply the CMY curve to the Pantone plate if...

Well, we got our certification!!! Now even more fun coming my way. Is there a way in Prinergy 5.1.2.3.8 to apply one of the colors of my CMYK curves we created in the certification process to a spot color for 2 color (K + PMS) work? We do not use %AUTO% in our process template since it is not a...

We are having a water cooler discussion and I figured I would get some outside input. If a customer supplies a file and has used copyrighted logos, photos, etc. is it the printers responsibility to make sure their customer has permission to use these items? Can the printer be sued for...

Hi Gordo- I do understand the differences in the curve names. When our Prinergy system was installed in 2008 these curves were created to make sure any tonal value in the file was accurately reproduced on the plate. Ask the Kodak installers why. The platesetter is imaging consistently. We have...

Hello all- I have what I hope is two simple questions, we have a one curve, measuring black, harmony curve applied to our plate output which just linearizes the plates. We are going to start the process of becoming G7 certified which means I will have to alter all four colors...

Oh see you don't understand, that would take all the fun out my production manager's day. This is a one time short run on our 4 color 19X25 sheetfed press so he wants me to match the look of newsprint. UGH

Hello all- Does anyone happen to know of a good CMYK breakdown that replicates the look of a newsprint stock? Thank you in advance for any help you can give me.

Thanks Gordo. I have already been to your blog and found it very informative and helpful. The link to the book is awesome, hopefully they will let us purchase it. It is nice to know there is a resource out there for objective comparisons. As we all know every salespersons product is the best...
