Kodak Approval
The Kodak Approval proofing system was introduced in the 90s by Kodak in the market. With a Kodak Approval system outstandingly accurate halftone proofs and production Dummies could be produced.
Due to the high cost of consumables (market prices for Kodak Approval proofs are up to 100 Euro / A3 sheet) and the long processing time in the proofer and the elaborate laminating of the the proofs, Kodak Approval system are now only rarely found in the market. They were replaced by the faster, cheaper and in the color rendering significantly better and more accurate inkjet proofing systems.
