Plate sheets are printed after imaging and uniquely identify an imaged plate set of a sheet.
When is a plate set sheet printed?
The manager you are using determines when a plate set sheet is printed.
•Prinect Prepress Manager Standalone:
A plate set sheet is printed automatically as soon as you submit a sheet to an "ImpositionOutput" sequence (even in case of a single separation).
•Prinect Prepress Manager + Prinect Pressroom Manager:
A pallet sheet is printed automatically as soon as all plates necessary for the next printing operation have been imaged.
What information will be printed?
The plate set sheet template you are using determines the job data to be printed. By default, there are two templates at your disposal. The "PlateSetSheet_2015" template contains more information than the "PlateSetSheet" template.
The following table shows the job data that can be printed with the respective templates:
