    Rubber mat beneath ATF Chief?

    We have purchased an ATF Chief 117 1 color press, and will be moving it to a commercial/light industrial area. We have a bit of a concern with noise and vibration. Would it be possible to place the press on top of a hard rubber mat to help dampen the vibrations, or would this throw the press off...

    color management, proofing, and calibration color management, proofing, and calibration I understand the basics of color management if you are printing in house, but what if you send out your print jobs?

    Is iPad the print publishing killler we been waiting for?

    iPad vs iPrint iPad vs iPrint I don't see print media going away any time soon, maybe never. As a printer as well as hosting provider I work a lot with conventional print, digital mediums, and even specific to iPhone material. In the past decade I have personally seen local demand for print...

    RGB or CMYK in print?

    Printer profiles Printer profiles Everyone has had some great discussions on how to get the files, but it's equally as important to how you send the files to press. Any printer or press on the market uses CMYK natively. None use RGB, as RGB is a subtractive color profile (subtracts from black)...

    AppleTalk Printers don't work in Snow Leopard

    The first intel Core Solo/Duo (Codename Yonah) was in fact a 64 bit processor as it supported the SSE3 instruction set. The fact that Intel called it 32 bit still doesn't make any difference. I wrote and ran 64 bit C code on these processors fine. I'm not sure why you are confused by the term...

    Xerox solid ink warning

    Not that anyone would try to use a solid ink machine for massive production runs, but I thought I would post this warning for even the MFPs. Xerox Solid Ink, including the new Color Qube, is a neat idea, sort of a cross between a Laser and an HP Indigo. The only problem is the "ink", aka WAX...

    Running Publisher in Parallels

    VirtualBox works, as does some others, but I think for the ease of use you can't beat Parallels and coherence mode (start menu bar shows up on your mac without the desktop). Office 07 works fine for me on Parallels.

    FTP file to PC customer

    FTP in OS X FTP in OS X I also recommend cyberduck for its simplicity and drag and drop interface, but OS X does have built in support for FTP. In the finder click "GO" -> "Connect to Server", and enter in the FTP address you have "ftp://ftp.customer.com", and click connect. It will prompt you...

    AppleTalk Printers don't work in Snow Leopard

    Snow Leopard & PPC Snow Leopard & PPC I don't mean to miff anyone here, just go into a little more technical depth of what Snow Leopard Really is. Starting with the switch to Intel, all new Intel processors are by nature 64 bit. Tiger, and more recently Leopard, are not "natively" 64 bit...

    Glossy coating on laser output

    I run a small print and design shop, using a Xerox Phaser 7400. I would like to be able to gloss my own output, instead of sending out for glossy business cards and the like. I have a BC cutter, and do my own matte cards, but have to send out glossy. Is there an inexpensive way of doing coating...
