Allows two presses to be set up with the same plate queue average readings from a job to get an overall score. generate your own standards based on previous jobs or typing in your own values. add a comment or instruction to any job or measurement. search the database by job name, press, operator, client, score, standard, comment, date, time etc. sort jobs by name, press, operator, client, score, standard, date. register company details on pressSIGN OnLine upload measurement reports to pressSIGN OnLine email measurement reports directly from pressSIGN across the sheet consistency score when reading full width colour bar with Eye-One and pressSIGN extended ruler trac light scoring system for quick and easy understanding of press sheet
