I already did. With my hand though, hence the anticipation.

We are a Rampage shop. XMF has been mentioned as a replacement. From what i can find on the web it is a 50 50 to keep Rampage. Any one running XMF who has Rampage experience I would love to hear your point of view.

Boss is looking at XMF or Apogee. We have to switch plates anyway, as the Azura TS line will be changing soon. Whoever bundles the best package deal for plates, chemistry, processor and RIP will be who we switch to (from Rampage).

Since Fuji bought Rampage it seems they should give you a deal on changing to their workflow.

Is the TS a process-less plate? We are looking at all our options and I'd like to know if they are changing it up. Last thing I want is to start using a new plate then have them change it on me. Kodak loved to do that and not tell anyone.

There is a new plate coming out with an extended run length. Azura TU, not sure of the gum changes.

I think it's new gum, too. There has been talk of them giving us a new processor.
