Patent number: 9623695Abstract: A method for printing on a substrate is disclosed. In an embodiment of the method, the method includes printing a small print control mark of a printed color in a print zone of the substrate and printing a large print control mark of the printed color in the print zone of the substrate. A measurement value of the small print control mark and a measurement value of the large print control mark is detected by a sensor. A deviation between the measurement value of the small print control mark and the measurement value of the large print control mark is determined and an actual value of a print parameter of the printed color is corrected based on the deviation.Type: GrantFiled: September 4, 2014Date of Patent: April 18, 2017Assignee: manroland web systems GmbHInventor: Florian Fejfar

Publication number: 20150027331Abstract: A method for producing printing formes, which serve for the printing of a substrate web with a seamless or transitionless, endless or format-variable print image in offset print, is disclosed. For each printing color of the print image to be printed, a total separation of the respective printing color is divided over at least two printing formes so that with a first printing forme a first part separation of the total separation and with a second printing forme a second part separation of the total separation can be printed onto the substrate web. The substrate web in first portions can be exclusively printed by the first part separation and in second portions can be exclusively printed by the second part separation. The substrate web in third portions can be printed by the first part separation and by the second part separation in an overlapping or overlaying manner.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 25, 2014Publication date: January 29, 2015Applicant: Manroland web systems GmbHInventor: Florian FEJFAR

Patent number: 8561537Abstract: At least one mark is integrated into an image data set from a prepress stage, and the mark is scanned in order to automatically determine a region or an extract of the image data set which is relevant to the determination of zonal area coverage values. Zonal area coverage values for a print are determined from the region or extract, and presetting values for the inking zone setting elements are determined from the zonal area coverage values.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2006Date of Patent: October 22, 2013Assignee: manroland AGInventors: Florian Fejfar, Andreas Metzner

Patent number: 7876441Abstract: A control station for a printing press, includes at least one true color monitor for displaying at least one soft proof serving as a color reference for printed copies printed during the printing process, and at least one standard light source for at least partial illuminating the control station to allow visual comparison, independent of room lighting, of a printed copy with the soft proof serving as the color reference. The luminosity produced by the at least one standard light source is variable, so that the luminosity produced by the at least one standard light source can be adjusted to match a brightness achievable on the true color monitor to match a contrast achievable on the true color monitor during the display of the soft proof.Type: GrantFiled: August 16, 2007Date of Patent: January 25, 2011Assignee: MAN Roland Druckmaschinen AGInventor: Florian Fejfar

Publication number: 20100212526Abstract: A method for producing a printed product on a web press, wherein a plurality of printing substrate webs which are to be printed are held ready at a plurality of reel splicers of the web press. The plurality of printing substrate webs are transported respectively through at least one printing form-based printing unit of the web press for the static printing of an image on the plurality of printing substrate webs which does not change for printed copies of the printed product.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 26, 2008Publication date: August 26, 2010Inventors: Peter Schulmeister, Robert Weiss, Florian Fejfar

Publication number: 20100214615Abstract: A method for producing a printed product, wherein at least one printing substrate webs are transported through at least one printing form-based printing unit for static printing of at least one printing substrate webs with a printed image which remains unchanged for printed copies of the printed product. In addition, at least one of the statically printed printing substrate webs is printed inline dynamically with the static printing in a region of at least one printing device of the web press without a printing form with access data, e.g., a prize code, which is individualized for at least some printed copies. Here, information content, such as a prize, which extends beyond the printed product can be accessed by the access data for a purchaser of the printed product over an interactive medium, such as the Internet. Access data specific to a target person and/or a target group are printed in the printed copies as individual access data.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 26, 2008Publication date: August 26, 2010Applicant: manrolanad AGInventors: Peter Schulmeister, Robert Weiss, Florian Fejfar

Patent number: 7750920Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating a color reference for an image to be printed for visualizing the same on a true-color monitor is disclosed. Lower-resolution image data are generated from high-resolution raster data for the image to be printed which are obtained from page description data for the image to be printed. The lower-resolution data are converted into display data which serve as color reference for the image to be printed and which can be visualized on a true-color monitor. An actual transmission characteristic is ascertained. The actual transmission characteristic ascertained is compared with a specified (desired) transmission characteristic, where, on the basis of this comparison, a correction curve is calculated which is required to arrive at the desired transmission characteristic starting with the actual transmission characteristic. The display data are ascertained using the calculated correction curve.Type: GrantFiled: July 16, 2007Date of Patent: July 6, 2010Assignee: Man Roland Druckmaschinen AGInventor: Florian Fejfar

Patent number: 7707002Abstract: The present invention concerns measures for the space-optimized determination of printing-related measured values. With the aid of a tone value and/or color gradient in a control patch and a suitable measuring device, it is possible to obtain, in a smaller amount of space, adequate or even detailed information about the printing process. Correcting values necessary for the automatic control of the printing operation can be determined on the basis of the information thus obtained, which can be also be continuously acquired due to the space-optimized tone value and/or color gradients.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2006Date of Patent: April 27, 2010Assignee: MAN Roland Druckmaschinen AGInventors: Florian Fejfar, Armin Weichmann

Publication number: 20090086002Abstract: A method for printing a substrate web in a rotary printing press is disclosed. The substrate web to be printed is conveyed through a printing form-based printing unit for static printing of the substrate web with a print image that does not vary for the print copies of a printing job, such that at least one static print page is printed in the longitudinal direction of the substrate web per revolution of the form cylinder and several static print pages are printed on the substrate web across the longitudinal direction of the substrate web. In addition to static printing, the statically printed substrate web is printed dynamically with a variable print image in the area of a printing form-free printing device of the rotary printing press such that the print format of the printing form-free printing device extends in at least some sections over at least two statically printed pages.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 26, 2008Publication date: April 2, 2009Applicant: Manroland AGInventors: Peter Schulmeister, Robert Weiss, Florian Fejfar
