Operating system

Imagesetters

Symptoms

When grayscale and/or registration marks are added to the expose template, Brisque is slow exposing a one-bit TIFF file on imagesetters.

Cause

Brisque translates the one-bit TIFF file to LW (Line Work) "on-the-fly". This process overloads the system CPU and memory resources. Typically, this error occurs on slower Brisque platforms (E30, 43P-140, and, 43P-150).

Solution

Do not add grayscale marks and/or registration marks during the expose operation. Add these marks when you create the one-bit TIFF file.
