Lino 530

Initial testing with RIP50 by Dan Everard (not in production).

1-bit DCS and EPS at 1270 or 2540 dpi to RIP50.

Notes from Everard:

At the customer site where this was tested, the Lino530/RIP50 is used only for 1-color books (on poor uncoated stock). Currently this site runs the Lino530 at 2540 dpi/133 lpi, although this is not a recommended combination (which might explain the banding in the flat screens).
Instead of using the Vancouver-created test files that tend to focus on 4-color blends, I created a test page that covered the issues relevant to 1- and 2-color book printers (text, reversed text, flat screens, and 1-color blends). I produced files at both 1270 and 2540 dpi and saved as DSC/CCITT compressed and as Grayscale EPS/RLE compressed. After fiddling with the default page size so that the output would not be clipped to 8.5 x 11, I got all types of files to output.
