Yes, that is correct. Every R&D project needs money, especially since up to not long ago, Benny funded this project from his own pocket. Unlike Heidelberg, by the way, which I heard found a way to fund their R&D using chicken eggs (medium size) and bat droppings. No money or investors needed...

I happily share knowledge that I have. They want confidential information that I'm not allowed to share. I'd rather quit this thread than this forum.

Sorry, you seem to have mistaken me for someone who actually cares whether you believe him or not. You can believe anything you want, including the fanciful speculations of Mr. Fischer from INGEDE. After all, everyone is entitled to their own opinions, as evident on this forum. Luckily, not...

Come on, be serious. Do you honestly think I can give you the numbers before they've been published officially? I'm signed under the most strict NDA. A few posts ago you claimed to be smarter than the average Schnitzel - at least pretend.

So, you've never been to the factory, never seen a single print, don't know how the machines and the process work, never seen the deinking score the prints received, but you somehow "know" everything. Maybe you are not as smart as you present yourself with such arrogant authority. You are just...

How do you know that?

Sorry, are you answering your own questions? That makes arguing with you pointless.

The presses have not been released yet into the market. Of course there are no presses installed yet - they are in development. Surely you can understand this simple logic.

Yet on every post you mention Benny Landa, you bash him personally and his project obsessively and say it will never work. That's a model example of hypocrisy. Think about that in heavy cerebral mode, please.

By "proof" do you mean a color proof?

Sorry, I didn't get everything, but from what I understand, you have a spectrum of a color that you wish to print. If that's the case, head over to Bruce Lindbloom's site, under "Math" you have "Spectrum to XYZ". The last 4 equations are probably what you need. You'll need the spectrum of the...

The phrases "CMYK Toner" and "CMYK Inkjet" are meaningless - what are the color coordinates of the primary inks of each printer? On what type of paper? Without these measurements, you cannot estimate the color gamut and do a comparison.

Are you creating a CMYK or RGB printer profile? How do you send the targets to the press - print them, copy to a hot folder?

I worked in a place with a similar attitude: my boss used to tell me, "If a client asks you whether you can do this and that, always say yes. Later, you and I will see if it's possible...". In his defense, he never dropped the work on me alone, but it's a mentality, I suppose.

I don't think there's any commercial digital press today, which produces prints intended for outdoor display. I'll be happy to hear otherwise. Expect no more than a few months, in my opinion.

Sorry Erik, I can't get down to details, but that's not the way it works. Dry ink electrophotography does work like that, with the toner film being so thick it practically fills the hills and valleys of the paper, producing a glossy appearance on whatever stock you print on.

HP Indigo machines have the "UV Red" ink which fluoresces under UV light. It's available for the 5500/5600 sheet-fed presses and the ws4500/ws4600 web-fed only.

I can't be a god - I'm an atheist. Conflict of interest, you know.

It is just a word, who cares if it is not good enough for you? The fact is the process produces printed material. Can't you imagine someone finding a different method for production that does not conform to your fixed and narrow view of what "printing" means? Stop living 4,300 years in the past.

Of course is he talking about the Landa NanoInk, but for some reason he's afraid to say it out loud. From the sheer volume of messages he's writing about it, I'd reckon he's completely obsessed with it, and maybe wants to work at Landa. I'd root for him - it appears he knows something very...
