Enabling Dolev Screen Sets in Prinergy


Product

 
  • Kodak CS Xpose, version 2.x or later
  • Kodak® Prinergy®, version 2.1, update 12 or later
  • Kodak® Prinergy® Evo, version 4.0.6.6 or later
  • Kodak Dolev® 800, 800 V, 800 V2, 800 V3, or later

Operating system

 

  • Microsoft® Windows® 2000 Server
  • Microsoft Windows Server® 2003


Background

 

Prinergy contains pre-defined Dolev screen sets for use with Prinergy to Dolev 800 family connectivity. These screen sets are normally hidden to reduce clutter in the Process Template Screen System pop-up menu, and are enabled by editing the Windows registry (Prinergy Connect) or the config.txt file (Prinergy Evo).

The screen sets provide Dolev angle sets familiar to Brisque users and allow for 7.5° angles, which may help reduce moiré on Dolev output. Use of the screen sets also relaxes a memory constraint and allows frequencies very close to the exact frequencies requested. With standard Prinergy screen sets, the memory constraint causes users who request 150 lpi at 2540 dpi resolution to receive a line frequency of about 141 lpi. The Dolev screen angle sets result in a line frequency of almost exactly 150 lpi at 2540 dpi.

Note: The Prinergy Dolev screen sets do not use IS screening. In Prinergy version 4.1 or later, Dolev screen sets are only visible when the AM screen type is selected, not when the IS screen type is selected.


Requirements

 

You must have one of the following software products, installed and configured:

  • Prinergy software, version 2.1, update 12 or later
  • Prinergy Evo software, version 4.0.6.6 or later


Procedure

 

Enable the screen sets in Prinergy by editing the screen_version registry key.

Enable the screen sets in Prinergy Evo by editing the configuration file.
