“Operators utilize an intuitive wizard-style user inter- face that unlocks powerful functionality to quickly and easily create premium flexo plates,” said Robert Bruce, RIP & Screening Product Manager with Esko. “The Corrugat- ed Crystal Screens address the problems associated with recycled board liners, giving corrugated post print con- verters the opportunity to improve print quality or if print quality is not a goal, reduce ink costs. The screens can be imaged using our latest CDI Optics 100 technology, allow- ing plates to be made at 10m2 per/hr. Utilizing the Crystal XPS brings a new level of plate quality and consistency for the corrugated market. This is a win for both trade shops and corrugated post print converters.” Esko, the global supplier of integrated hardware and software solutions for the print and packaging sectors, de- veloped Print Control Wizard in response to industry calls to simplify the implementation of screens and dot gain curves. “Our goal was to provide flexographic experts with the tools to standardize and simplify screen and curve cre- ation, enabling them to achieve the best quality results without additional steps and checks being added to the process,” said Bruce. “After Print Control Wizard was hon- ored with a number of top industry awards, we have been working tirelessly to develop the new enhancements, and we are delighted to now release this new version for the corrugated market as we continue supporting the work of print and packaging specialists across the industry.”
