Prinergy to film screening artifacts


Product

  Prinergy Connect 2.1 ; Prinergy Direct 2.1 ; Prinergy Access 2.1 ; Prinergy Powerpack 2.1 ; Prinergy Satellite; Prinergy 2.2

Platform

 

Operating system

 


Error

 

None.


Symptoms

 

At 150 lpi and higher, diagonal lines that look like moire but are visible on individual film separations will be visible. Although visible on film, the artifact does not show up on press.


Cause

  With most imagesetters, there will be a possible interaction between the opto-mechanical system and the screening system that causes a visible artifact.

Solution

 

For now, you need to use a PS/M which has a TSP board that will mimize the artifact. In the future, we will be implementing TSP screening into Prinergy.

Permanent fix:
