Who has a WAX DTS (any brand) and a densitometer?
« on: January 03, 2020, 02:31:10 PM »
Who has a WAX DTS (any brand) and a densitometer and would like to do a few test with me?


I'd like to provide you with a halftone test and then have you read that with a densitometer. More specifically printing the test with a 65lpi halftone and printing 1% on up to 15%.   and 85% down to 99%.  This test, is not about wether you can hold 1% in the screen or 99% in the screen. I'd like to see how accurate it is in the % of tone it is representing (in this areas).


Thanks
Dan

Danny Gruninger at Denver Print House also has one.  His wax units are tightly calibrated.

Eric can knock this out of the park as well.
Been in the industry since 1996.  5+ years with QCM Inks.  Been a part of shops of all sizes and abilities both as a printer and as an Artist/separator.  I am now the Ink and Chemical Product Manager at Ryonet.
