Use this section of the Plate Control Strip to verify the RIP used to image the plate and some of the RIP settings.

The Platesetter/RIP Information section identifies system components and pixel dimensions. When you image the Plate Control Strip on plate, some of the settings in the KPCS file are reported here:

Resolution in dots per inch as specified in the KPCS file
  • It should match the resolution of the platesetter device.
  • Use this item to confirm that the Plate Control Strip was imaged at the correct resolution.
  • If you specified automatic detection in a customized file, this is the resolution obtained from the RIP.
Screen size as specified in the KPCS file
  • This determines, although it may not exactly match, the reference screening in the Tone Scales section and Highlight and Shadow Halftone Dots section section.
  • The screening that the RIP performed, visible in the requested screening in the Tone Scales section and elsewhere on the plate, is not necessarily the same.
Pixel size in micrometers (formerly called microns)This is directly related to the resolution.
