Evaluation of Single- and Multicolor Map and Chart Reproduction Equipment.

Abstract

This report covers the results of the investigation to determine the ability of state-of-the-art printing technologies to meet the military requirements for a quick reaction/limited quantity map and chart reproduction capability. The processes covered are aimed at meeting the requirements for single and multicolor reproduction. These requirements include: input, output, speed and quality of the reproduction, as well as restrictions on size, weight and environmental operating conditions. Covered in this report are the printing technologies which are considered to be the best candidates. Each of the methods are briefly described and the acceptable, marginally acceptable, and unacceptable characteristics as they relate to the military requirements are discussed. Specific additional comments are made about several of the processes and a representative list of manufacturers for each process is included. (Author)
