Recently, I’ve been making use of an inkjet, RIP software, and a black that I get from a supplier of inkjet-mods.Īlthough a variety of RIP kits are out there, the simplest one I could find for the money was ACCURIP- It’s actually RIP software for screen-printers (we also do paper screenprinting), but has been working well for the purposes of negative style printing. Have you ditched polymer and use a laser engraver? If so, can you share your experiences? Then there is laser engraving on polymer and a variety of other substrates. I am wondering if there have been new technological developments in terms of using either high quality inkjet and laser printers for film output? Anyone use a Xante Impressia, Epson 1430 or 4900 with Blackmax, or ? What specific equipment is involved in using an imagesetter (other than RIP software, film and chemistry)? Is there solid documentation on how to set up and use? Although, the imagesetter is a bit of a mystery to me. I am interested in producing plates with small type and fine lines.Īnd as far as I can tell an imagesetter is still the best in terms of resolution and capability. I have read all of the posts on film for the last 7-8 years. I think it’s time to move my plate production in house, but I am finding it difficult to figure out the film side of plate making.
