That should be fun. Perfecting is kind of a bitch.
You doing spot UV, or just overall?

Oh that's really cool Tracy! Does the Face Only option scale as opposed to shift to spine?

It does, although as she mentioned above, even though I was pretty skeptical when I heard about that scaling I've never seen it be noticeable.

We're getting a 10 color, UV, perfecting 40" Komori in a month or so and we anticipate work scaling up.

Ooooohhhhh, sexy! I haven't heard of a press install that size (at least locally) in years. Business must be good!

Yeah business is going really well here. We're pretty excited for the potential capabilities this will have. The new press is huge, about 96 feet long so we're converting part of our warehouse to be a second press room, moving our paper storage into another portion of our building, adding more restrooms and so on. It's a big thing going on here.

Yes it does not shift, it scales, and when I said to select all pages in reading order
you can select just the pages you want if that is what you needed. I have never done that, but know that it works.

Holy Cow! 10 Color Perfector!!!!

Before I retired we changed all of our shingling to use scale instead of move. It is un-noticeable that it is scaled and we didn't have to use different shingling for spreads or normal pages.

works like a champ!

Thanks Dinosaur! We're pretty excited. Our 640 hasn't had it's perfector working in over a decade so we're pretty excited about it. We're keeping it as a backup press. Nice thing is to 1040 and the 640 use the exact same plates (Thank you Komori) so if we have to move presses for whatever reason we can.

We've only got one Javelin plate setter, but there's another shop here in town that can make plates for us if ours goes down. We finally made the change to processless plates this spring so we're thankfully not having another machine to maintain in prepress anymore.

And also, welcome to the forum!

Aaron, What kind of color control will it have?

I believe it is going to have a automatic scanner, hand scanner and CIP.
