ABSTRACT:
A screening process and apparatus for flexographic printing press control is implemented in hardware and computer software to provide increased tonal range output at the press thereby providing enhanced direct press control, without adjustment based on press output. The image data from a desktop publisher is processed through a software resident interpreter which translates that data pursuant to a pre-developed enhanced language. This interpreter language has been is generated from imperially predetermined image setter and press factors and a stochastically based tone area algorithm. Calibration factors selected as a function of the image setter and press equipment being controlled are input to modify the interpreter language generated.
