System History records the screening information that was applied to an output.
This information helps you confirm that the correct screening was applied to an output. Also, if you need to regenerate an output (for example, remake a plate or reprint a job), this information helps ensure that the same screening was applied to the regenerated output that was applied to the original output.
Only one history message is generated for each screening setting. For example, if 100 objects are identically screened, only one history message is created to record screening information.
The following screening information is captured in system history:
- Screen system
- Dot shape
- Screen angle
- Ruling
- Maxtone settings
