A plate reader or a spectro unit for measuring the dot and/or density of the plate. The Print Guide: How CtP plate readers read plates

I use the Mac OS/included FONT BOOK.app without problems. Have also used FontExplorer with success.

This was a separate black box, about the size of a shoe box....that sits behind our machine just plugged into our 110v UPS. It just has a green light showing that the power is on. tech had to plug stuff into the engine so that it controlled the fans, even when the main(red) switch is OFF). The...

We had the banding issue on the long edge sheet direction (it would step across 5 or 6 sheets in various positions, the step was 43 - 44 mm). Happened on a few colors, drums were replace. Usually seen on jobs with a gradation on Monday morning - after being off for the weekend. Ozone was...

Stabbing here....Assuming there isn't an external RIP involved here...sounds like your color management settings are 'funky' for those apps or you have a bad icc profile? , also...any recent OS changes to your desktop machine?

Look at the RamProof tab on your FFP/shooter (edit-->prefs), you turn on FPO generation in there.

One of many possibilities... a. are fonts embedded properly in the PDF? (using a PDF/X-(?) standard) b. does the font have embedding restrictions? (some fonts used to have wrong 'switches' thrown that cause them not to embed...don't know if they were Adobe fonts, or just some other rouge fonts...

In Toledo, 45 min south, right on the state line. We have square-edge saddle stitch on our digital press. PM me if you want to discuss Qty, Price options. Not offered for offset runs. -Mike

Just saw this site the other day for W2P, and they mentioned photobooks as an option. Web To Print, Web2Print Storefront Solutions, Photo Album, Print Shop Software. Designing Tools, VDP, trade printers.

Yeah, regular crap continues. Value added service just doesn't work for the folks that don't understand value.... example: Just lost a $7200 bid on a job (we have produced before) because we were $95 too high. Really?.... but c'est la vie....and caveat emptor!

Have had the HP2500 and a HP 5500 for an imposition proofer (as a Preproofer2000 (sheet-fed) and a DoubleProof(Roll Fed) What a PIA now that I look back on these plotters and flippers...after some production use you had to jump on one leg while whistling dixie with saltines in your mouth to get...

Epson - Colorburst - Home: ColorBurst RIP - the OVERDRIVE product has a 15-day unrestricted demo available. No recent experience with this product, but have a few customers with EPSON devices using a previous version with good results...

Yes, you are correct...I just didn't fully understand the scenario. This leaves me with a new understanding to the limitations of the wedge. I hadn't thought that a customer proof vs. our proof would vary in that way if they were both certified to the same standard. I did not think the color...

Was this strip as large as the IDEAliance ISO 12647-7 strip? I do agree that the strip does not tell you everything...but if checked against a good reference set it should be pretty close (at least enough to flag a SWOP vs a GRACoL proof?)

We are a sheet-fed shop doing general commercial printing. Defaulting at - 175-Line screen for coated sheets, 133 for uncoated. Rampage RCS screening (a euclidean dot)

This is akin to the customer saying "It looks fine on my screen..." If they supply a proof in this way, they must have an approved test wedge on it for certification...without that you are just looking at pretty pictures without any reference to printing reproducibility.

Fuji Javelin (Screen - 8600z w/MAL) - 8 years, still churning out those consumables - 2 laser diodes replaced. Best output device I have ever used. (Minimal errors, linearization stays rock-solid)

Not much to further this discussion... 1. Put Pantone Yellow Ink in your ink well. 2. Print your coated sheet. 3. Print your (same) coated sheet (again). Sheet now has 2(two) coats/passes/hits/layers of Pantone Yellow Ink. Pantone Yellow C2X = Pantone Yellow Ink - on C(oated Sheet) - 2(Two) -...

My ramble... If you are just archiving customer files.... I use retrospect....but not above version 6......we never really used retrospect for incremental or workstation backups. I (ALSO) have a Retro6 machine, OS 10.4.1. mac with a Firewire AIT-2 drive. It is ONLY used when pulling data older...

I used this number last year to set-up service with EPSON, the dispatched Decision One - 562-276-1305 (EPSON U.S. out of warranty number)
