Hello all!
This is my first posting to this list so I hope You bear with this novice
question. We (papermaker) have been looking into making ICC-profiles for our
heatset papers (press spesific - not general) together with our customers.
Very often when talking with experts I run into suggestion to use these
standard profiles - either Euroscale Coated or these newer profiles ECI
(e.g. Isocoated.icc) is providing.
I have understood that these so-called standard profiles are mainly made for
sheet-fed printing. How well these suit for heatset printing? My main
concern is what kind of pre-press settings (Maximum ink coverage, UCR/GCR)
were used when making these profiles. In heatset maximum ink is usually
around 280-320% when in sheet-fed I understand it can be up to 350%.
Is the pre-press setting used listed in somewhere or could someone tell
about those?
Thanks in advance
Jouni Marttila
