‘Nu’ From Phototype

NuDot created its original technology, GR3, to improve printing on high-holdout substrates where hydraulic pressure builds up between the plate and substrate, giving rise to dot gain, mottle, and poor ink lay. “We were the ones who proved this technology was viable,” says Gary Russell, NuDot product manager. The premise is disarmingly simple. Asserts Russell, “If you can control dot gain, you can help control variability.”
