Be careful of aftermarket dampers. I have a couple of 7800's and keep a couple of original Epson parts on hand. They are inexpensive when not in a hurry and worth to have as a back up. I replaced with cheapies in a rush and wasted more time than it was worth. If you have the syringe to push the...

Hello. We have been a long time user of AGFA Apogee. We have previously committed to a workflow support and upgrade contract which will be running out in a couple of weeks. Historically the increase has been 10%. Seems a bit high to us and was wondering if anyone has a similar deal and if they...

My go to guy responded with... What the New iPad's Retina Display Means for Web Developers | Webmonkey | Wired.com

Many thanks.

With the new Macbook just released, do web designers now have to change their resolution? The new retina display boasts 2880-by-1800 resolution. What will I have to supply them with? 72 went up to 96, to... ?

We roll out spot colors on two sheets. We laminate one and check to see final color. Lamination cycles vary due to time and temperature and can shift your color dramatically.

Greetings from Buffalo! Sorry bout the menus. We cherish our sauce.

Apogee 7 has the plus box in the bottom left hand corner. I cant remember all the way back to 2.5 but I think it was the same? Click on the plus and it should allow you to add a user.

The flats that failed to render would still not render even after a restart. We narrowed it down by changing one item at a time. When we plugged in the gracol profile it went right through. Odd it only does it for certain spot colors? I had started rebuilding them named "PMS xxx" instead of the...

Thank you. Our most recent back up/config export was after the upgrade. I will check previous back ups to see if I can restore the profile. I am still going to try to have them perform a new one for our troubles.... wish me luck.

Thank you all for the input. We are in Upstate New York USA. I have been in contact with Agfa Tech Support. I have also been in contact with their professional services as we ran a good amount of plates here after the upgrade when we realized the problem. They are standing behind their...

Has anyone else encountered issues upgrading to 7.0? Our upgrade was completed a couple of months ago and afterward we found that our calibration curve was installed (correctly) but had somehow become corrupt. The numbers were fine but the yellow plates were not being altered. I created a new...

Thought 1 month was extreme. I guess it is just everyone paying for the abuse of a few (calling out and asking to use a vacation day).

We try to match printing on paper as best as possible. It is not going to happen. Its apples to oranges. We have had jobs that have taken a week to dry. We pulled short lifts, racked and placed fans in front on the racks. Perhaps the printer does need to be better. We have been doing this for...

We get a year end bonus and a ham.... mmm ham. We just had an adjustment with vacation time due to abuse. What is your requirement for advance request? We now have to put in for a vacation day 1 month in advance. Not going over too well.

We print plastic cards here but not credit cards (extremely high security). A lot of credit card manufacturers will screen print and litho over the top. We flood a lot of Pearlescents and Golds down first. The dot gain on plastic is much higher (we have had to run insane numbers from time to...

We have placed images in Illustrator and used the multiply transparency over colors. I am not so much worried about proofing process, as the "CYA" tag line. If a customer is dumb enough to not realize the color WILL change, they are dumb enough to complain PMS 301 on a gold stock does not match...

Here is one of my several attempts, this is the shortest... "The color of the stock will significantly change the way a photo looks. Any 4 color image will appear different when printed on colored stock. PMS spot ink colors will also shift when printed on colored stock. This proof can not be...

We add overprinting spot color "Die" to the pdf. Usually made with odd color to the work (magenta or green).

Command + Shift + 3?
