Forum: Fiery Color & Imaging Topics

Our experience is that adjusting color curves within ImageViewer is risky. Re-open the adjusted file in the "Held" queue and the curve adjustments might be there, or might not. The file can be re-opened 2 or 3 times and the adjustments are there, but the next time the file is opened, curve...

I have a substitute color created for a customer. I have a pdf with a transparency. This transparency lays on top of a color bar which should print with the substitute color. When printed, I get the common white box where the transparency is. I have "Optimize RGB Transparency" turned on. When I...

I have a numbered file that is being printed on an NCR form, currently the file is 1000 1001 1002 but I need it to print 1000 1000 1001 1001 1002 1002 and can not find any setting. Is this even possible and how?

Does Fiery have a dedicated manual for the: 1) Graphic Arts Package Premium Edition (GAPPE) 2) Color Profiler Suite If yes, can I download these manuals from the EFI/Fiery website? Where would they be located and what are the titles?

Sometimes I have a file that prints too dark, even changing the brightness to the max of 85% it is still too dark. Is there a way to brighten/lighten the overall image even more with the Fiery? Thanks for any help.

My customer is having occasional issues when reprinting jobs he had successfully printed. He recently had a booklet do the following. Printed 100 copies of the booklet and they printed ok. Needed and additional 75 booklets, Right clicked on printed changed the needed quantity and the pagination of...

Is there anyway to print in bitmap mode (no screening) through the CWS? I have printed off the glass on our Xerox C75 press and get sharp details in map mode (b/w line or dot images). Is there any way to print the same way from a digital file through CWS? Also, since upgrading our fiery...

I'm having difficulties printing the Ghent Output Suite correctly. Pdf/x output intent is enabled as well as composite overprint. The problem is on the second page. 3 boxes are still showing the "X". Is this a limitation of our controller (E41A on a ProC751) or am I missing a setting? I can't...

Is there a way to print a line art graphic without having the rip convert to a screen? If I print off the glass, map mode will do a perfect job, but if the job is digital, I cannot find a way to print b/w bit map. Is this possible through the CWS with the CPS on our Xerox C75?

Would anyone happen to know which "specific" font types can be uploaded to a Fiery? I usually hear an answer of Adobe "Type 1", however, I've found that not all variations of Type 1 fonts will work (".pfb" will import but ".pfa" won't). I'm assuming that TrueType and OpenType can't be...

Hi We have had our 9110s for some time now and was told that the 175dot screen was the overall best choice. I would like to optimize the quality by profiling new medias with new screening options. Has anyone tested the many different screening options? What is best for general silk and Uncoated...

On our current Canon machine I calibrate using Neusiedler/Canon Top Colour 100gsm stock. This is required and makes sense to me. In my mind the machine would need to know expected whiteness and reflectance of the calibration media. We are looking at new machines, and all current machines seem...

Hi When a PDF/Artwork has ICC Profile: NONE What would be the best way to print this? Using Bypass Conversion? Colourless OFF or OTHER?? And would the APPE be enabled?

Hi, the customer is printing a file with color and black images. The black images are built in the file as 80% black but get converted to cmyk black. Is this a file issue or is there a setting on the fiery? Thanks.

On my Xerox 1000 when i go to do a multipass for the clear it has to reprocess the file for each layer of clear that it puts down. Why? if the first layer is color + clear and the following layers are just clear shouldn't it just process twice at most. For a large graphic file that takes awhile...
