    Did you ever find out the issue? We have a screen 8800zx and are seeing similar issues. We have replaced GLV and made many adjustments to zoom, focus, beam balance, calibration, etc. with no luck.

    Screen 8800 lines across entire plate

    We're seeing straight lines running in the feed direction on all plates coming out of our Screen 8800 GLV. The lines run across the entire plate, affecting both image and non-image areas. Has anyone dealt with this before? Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Photos attached for...

    HP Scitex 500/550/700 Cyan Overspray?

    Photos attached. Originally we thought the issue was static or head/nozzle related. We are having this same problem on all 3 of our hybrid HP UV presses (500/550/700). The only consistent variable would be the ink we are using. Would appreciate any advice on how to fix or narrow down the...

    Thinking about digital...where to start?

    Thanks for the info. It seems the 1175P is an HP head vs the Memjet head on the countertop units. I have seen samples from the counter top units directly from iJet and was not very impressed. Is the quality any better with the HP heads?

    Thinking about digital...where to start?

    I was thinking digital envelopes for <5M qty. Anything more and I think running offset and outsourcing to a converter may be more cost effective. Either way we are hoping to find a machine that is more "set it and forget it" as we would likely be running the digital presses with existing...

    Multiple RIPs within workflow

    It seems redundant to run files through two RIPs unless there is a specific reason for it. Does the second RIP have integrated imposition that is being used? If not, is Prinergy able to output directly to your digital devices? What are the specific reasons the digital and wide format...
