Default line screen & dot shape

Do you have a "default"? And what is the range of work that you produce?

We are a large commercial printer that encounters the gamut of offset print jobs.

• Everything from plastics and #1 sheets to what my Father called "birdcage liner"

• Conventional and UV inks

• Dimensions from postcards to POP displays… you name it

Consequently, we image plates at various line screens and dot shapes.

Our "default" settings are conventional round dot and (what I consider) a coarse 150 line screen.

I would run everything stochastic if I could but fear getting fragged by our pressmen.

So, how about you…?

Cheers…
