Re: Riso Riso FR3950 ep-a

The differences between the computer options are kind of hard to understand, until you consider the FR line was made with the computer technology available in the 1980s/1990s in mind, then it starts to make a weird sort of sense if you think about it.
It's a shame really. I liked the FR line when it wasn't obsolete, and if you have one that works well on its own you have a gem and you should run it hard until it physically falls to pieces. Just don't expect it to operate like newer machines, because it can't.

Like IT responded, your older FR cannot quite understand the newer print interpolation. An older RIP, like the SC3500 would probably produce great results when teamed up with a PC running Win95, but because of advancements in technology, the older machine can only guess at what the end result should look like now. Kinda like a font substitution thing, it will try it's best to give the results, but it just doesn't have all of the correct information.
