Smart Marks Wont Print If do not apply workflow calibration turn on

[COZZY62]

Trying to print grey bars that do not have the cal curve applied - but it wont print if do not apply workflow calibration turned on - Turn it off its fine, Im assuming the EVOS here are out of date 3.0.6.5 - I updated to Peps 5.3.2 to get this feature!! Looking for Confirmation or work around, we have 6 EVO servers That are all way out of date!!

Thanks for any and all help/info on this

I am not sure, you want to print a box % of grey on the plate. It cannot have a curve applied to it.

I don't believe this is a Preps issue but one of your RIP. What are you using?

In my Rampage workflow, I cannot image anything on the plate that is not affected by my linearization or calibration curves.

I would try to figure out what value you want and what value you need to get after the curve is applied. Example - you want 50%, the curve is giving you 35%. You need to create a box with 65% or somewhere around there.

You could image a plate from Rampage with no calibration by setting your media linearization, press a(ctual) and press d(esired) to "none." If you wanted a purely linear plate, then just set your media linearization to your curve, and leave a and d to "none."
