Xitron will discontinue support for Navigator version 10 effective June 30, 2021, except for select OEMs and existing service contracts. Navigator versions 13, 12, and 11 will continue to be supported. We strongly encourage you to contact any customers running Navigator software v10 (or older)...

Hi Magnus, I am a reseller for PressPerPercent. You are right, the online payment process is a bit strange. So I offer my German customers a complete installation and service package.

Hi Printbandit, finally I found something for you. Please open the link below and copy the CIP3Station folder to your Windows desktop. Doubleclick on the CIP3Station.exe. It runs even on Windows 10. Two user manuals are attched too. I used it only for controlling CIP3 & PPF-files and never...

Hi printbandit, I got at least a demoversion of it somewhere, but I am not sure if it will work together with a real press. I will come back with the file.

Hi printbandit, as far as I remember Shinohara presses came with a Windows 32bit Software called CIP3 Station which communicates with the press console. All CIP3 and PPF file were okay for The CIP3 Station.

@MacDaddy I worked for Mitsubishi Paper Mills Ltd. in Germany for over 13 years and I know well the TDP device and material. The maximum screen ruling of the TDP thermal printer is 133 lpi and therefore the desired 200 lpi is still a long way off. The dot shape that can be achieved is very...

@steveput I can still do something to refine inkjet-to-film production. If you switch to the more precise Epson SureColor SC-P models instead of the Epson SC-T "plastic" model series, 200 lpi can be achieved. The material guidance in the printer is higher quality and more precise. I would...

Hi EMDK, you should ask your local Heidelberg dealer for the price of this additional import option. Prices may vary.

Hi EMDK, I am a dealer for Xitron products here in Germany and I have to say that the Navigator RIP comes with no specified plug-in for Heidelberg Suprasetter models. You will need the " TIFF-B Import" enabled (photo attached) in the MetaDimension / Prinect workflow or Heidelberg "MetaShooter"...

Hi prwhite, a new Navigator Server v8 may also come. I'm still in the process of clarifying this with Xitron.

Zerge, it's been an honor and a pleasure :)

Zerge, 1. Separated PS-files which are not produced by the HQ-RIP like your printing plates are , could cause problems in the correctness of the CIP3-files produced by PPP. 2. PPP is only working on a Mac, I know it. You don't have have to use 1bit Tiffs in full plate resolution of 2400dpi or...

Zerge, as input file for the Harlequin RIP it is better to use composite PDF or PS-files and not seperations. The important part is that you sent TIFF seperations to PPP which can be merged. Then all spot colors are processed correctly for the CIP3 generation.

Hi Zerge, you wrote that you got a Harlequin RIP. All you need is the TIFF-plugin of the Harlequin RIP for producing 1bit TIFF separated files (CMYK & Spot). Then you load these seperations into PressPerCent using the setup I sent you. PPP will merge these separations together again and do the...

Hi Zerge, with the Harlequin RIP and PressPerCent you are still really well equipped. You are right, PressPerCent only uses the internal Quartz PDF engine of the MAC and cannot process spot colors. However, PressPerCent can also work with Harlequin 1bit TIFF separations, combine them (see...

The competitor to Impoproof is Digital Information Ltd.´s Epson based DJet from Switzerland. It is distributed by CMYK Distributors in the U.S.A.

Hi Dave, I worked for Mitsubishi Paper Mills in Germany for more than 13 years before the European representation was closed. However, the SDP polyester printing plates do not contain much silver, that's right. It is much less than in the classic reprofilm. After development, part of the silver...

The RIP included in Printware Ijet package is Navigator Northstar too.

Hi Ravi, connect your Screen black box EP-B101 with your local network. Use a tool like PortExpert (Freeware) to search your local network for the current IP-address of the black box. https://www.kcsoftwares.com/?portexpert If you got it, use an internet browser for connection to the...

Sorry, but it is necessary to type in the tone values for intended and actual press under "edit from uncalibrated target" for "printing press" in the HQ-Rip.
