Lammy,

Image Control is great but it would never be bought to just read targets for profiles. The main function of Image Control is to spectrophotmically scan the press sheet and compare it to the digital master for ink key pres settings from prepress or another scan of the press sheet. It reads the whole 8 up sheet with about 160,000 samplings in about 30 seconds. The press operator can then look at the monitor and see how close he is to the target. If off, he just hits ok to automatically have the keys adjust to get closer to the master. Great production device and can be used with several presses. As a side note, great for reading targets for generating profiles.


Regards,

Mark
