To say any one part of the printing process is more important than the other shouldn’t even be a discussion. The original files that come in, the design of the job, pre-press done for the job, plate making, inks, substrate used, the printing and the finishing all work together to make the final...

Does anyone know of a good program that calculates ink coverage? Preferably something independent of Illustrator.

Sorry took a a couple days to reply to everyone. I was snowbound and then could not get my car out of my driveway. Oh the joys of moving farther north and all the snow storms. Terry - What I meant by In Gamut was that I had the software set to 0 delta E and according to the manual the max delta...

I have been using GMG's Flexoproof for my company's Epson 9900 proofer, have been experiencing some issues with the software and was wondering if anyone else has been having or had the same problem and found a solution or solutions. What is going on is that during the profile set up after I have...

Thanks everyone for your help. I really do appreciate it. Wish I could get my hands on one to try it myself. Maybe one of the companies I've looked at has a loaner program to entice me to buy one.

I am researching spectrodensitometers for my company because we are looking to get a new one because the two we have are fairly old. One is no longer supported and one is over ten years old and is possibly on it's last legs. I came across some made by Techkon. Does anyone know anything about the...

Can anyone recommend a reliable and great color plotter/CAD machine? We are looking to purchase a new one because the old one is starting to have lots of problems. We currently have a HP designjet 1055cm plus for the plotter and a Roland Camm-1 for the CADs. We would like a plotter that can also...

janezl - I read all my densities using the i1 so I should be consistent with all my readings. Thanks for the heads up though.

AdamZx3 - Thanks for the RapidCheck download. I had trouble with one computer but when to another, downloaded it again and it came across fine. I haven't gotten to use it yet because I am on another project so hopefully later today or tomorrow I will get to play with it. I hope it has a guide on...

cmfarling - I haven't configured a target in ColorPort for the patches but that is a great idea, thanks. I will have to go through the help guide and see how to do it. AdamZx3 - my email is [email protected] I appreciate that you are willing to do that for me. I wrote GMG but I don't know when...

Thanks again for all the info meddington. I have not heard of a couple of those solutions. As many years as I've been in printing I've only seen a couple of programs used in the different plants or shops I've been to.

Thanks meddington. That definitely helps me get on the right path towards finding an inexpensive solution. Have you ever used CT&A? Is it as reliable as other solutions that you can think of? What were your other solutions if you don't mind me asking?

I hope this does not sound like a silly question but my company just got an i0 table and an i1 Pro that attaches to it. I have been trying to figure out how to read the density of ink blocks on press sheets and can not seem to find the option in any of the software. We have the Eye-One and...
