output quality, due to lowered CT resolution. If possible, RIP CT to 300
dpi. Always resample at the PDF2Go stage as well, to ensure that the
resolution is correct.
LW resolution
: If possible, RIP LW to 2400 dpi (94.48819 dpm).
Always resample at the PDF2Go stage to ensure that the resolution is
correct.

Using ExportPS – Any Version
ExportPS is not currently recommended for bringing pages into
Prinergy. However, if using ExportPS, extreme caution must be taken at
the RIP stage, that is, at CT/LW creation, to ensure that the LW
resolution matches the intended device resolution, for example, 2400
dpi (94.48819 dpm). This is because ExportPS does not resample the
page. Sending an ExportPS page with the wrong resolution for output in
Prinergy, that is, resampling at the output stage, can introduce
artifacts.
Using the PostScript Bypass feature will enable you to avoid artifacts
on final output when importing ExportPS DCS files into Prinergy.
Contact your Kodak representative to set this up.
About moving CT/LW data around the network
Select the entire job folder to copy, not just the individual page
components or files.
Selecting the contents of the job folder instead of the folder itself and
copying the files to removable media results in a page that cannot be
processed because the assign file for the job is missing. The assign file
is located within the folder structure but is not visible on the Mac or
Brisque. If you are using a Brisque or a PS/M version 5 or later, it
automatically creates a hidden assign file when RIPing. The assign file
is necessary for processing the CT/LW page.
