I have in the past posted concerns about ink jet
proofing. I see there are others out there with
questions as well. But the fact remains that there are
still customers out there who still insist on high end
dot proofs. I believe that with the ink jets and Rip's
attached you can no doubt get much closer
colorimetrically speaking. But the sharpness is not
there.
I also see many are suggesting stochastic printing to
solve this. But as mentioned as well, easier said than
done. Especially when you have been satisfying your
customers with current printing methods. The problems
are proofing. The thing of it is that even going to to
stochastic FM screening and printing, the same problem
exist in my mind. A 2400 dpi output plate going on
press verses a 720 simulated dpi ink jet. No matter
what you do, you are still going to have a softer
proof than print.
This of course makes the press room look like champs
which is good, but the complaint by customers is that
they want to see and know that what they see on proof
is what they will get in the end.
So my long drawn out question comes into play. Is
there anything in development out there that anyone
can point me to in regards to getting around this. The
powers that be at my company are also looking for some
type of verification that high end dot proof systems
are on the way out for good. If this is fact in the
industry at least we would be able to educate our
customers with the the facts. That eventually this is
something they must get over.
