    Topaz Scanner Error message

    I remember this error from years ago - I think leaving it on would warm up the bulb. Have you: Tried switching to scanning transparencies and then back again? Switiching Topaz off and restarting after 15 mins.

    Synthetics on Xerox 700, C75/J75, Versant 2100 and Versant 80

    We had a similar experience with Xerox NeverTear 270 micron and our Xerox 700. Our 1st side out was washed. 2nd side out was fine. Running the stock through as either 90 gsm uncoated, or 170 uncoated gave better results. This was because the 2nd BTR was dropping voltage in-between sheets when it...

    I don't know about FreeFlow, but there is an option on Creo for Preserve pure CMY colors. If no option exists, try turning off all color options 1 by 1 until you find the culprit.

    Densieye 700 for digital printing estimation

    I'm not familiar with this densitometer, you need a spectrophotometer to measure tints printed digitally, as there isn't the same screen as with Litho! We use i1 - x-rite

    Xerox 700 - Scan to PDF Destination has changed

    This happens with us intermittently. From memory - I think you can go to Start Menu - Fiery Remote Scan and check/change the settings there. I don't know if it's an issue with the Fiery software or Windows.

    Hercules Pro startup and than nada

    Thanks for the update LoWang I've copied the floppy to a PC, duped it using WinImage and inserted it back in. Looking at the output from VT100, I get quite far in the boot sequence: Loads 590K into RAM and loads about 6 files: Errors.txt default.mat etc and then fails with an address error :(

    Tints in solids?

    Haha. Good follow up post. V amusing! I don't know ECRM Imagesetters, and have only worked with 1 Herkukes (v1!) If the dot is seen in the preview. Then it has nothin to do with the imagesetter. By settings, I didnt mean job settings, I was meaning screen and or page set up. What happens...

    Tints in solids?

    Tint in solid Tint in solid Hmm. Can't be anything to do with the imagesetters laser if you see it in the preview Sounds like conflicting settings. Does this happen when you are ripping a single colour job? I would go back to default settings for everything and see what happens! Good luck!
