This field allows the user to default an exact amount of material spoilage independent of Makeready Spoilage. Typically this applies to a web press, and will allow the user to enter spoilage sheets to “web” the press.
This spoilage factor is not a function of signatures, lots, inks, plates or sides but can be added onto these other spoilage values.
For Example:
Makeready Spoilage : 125/color
Press Setup Spoilage : 200
# of Colors : 4/4
Makeready Spoilage = (4 x 125) + 200 = 500 + 200 = 700 sheets
