Abstract

A method for the determination of print parameters of a printing machine, particularly a flexographic printing machine, comprises the following steps: First, a print form () is provided and mounted on a print cylinder (). Then, at least one high-resolution image of the surface of the print form () is recorded by means of a 3D camera (). On the basis of the at least one high-resolution image a height profile of the print form () is determined and then a simulated print image is calculated on the basis of the height profile and an initial set of print parameters. Finally, optimized print parameters are determined by checking and/or varying the print parameters of the initial set. For this purpose, a simulated print image is calculated again after the print parameters have been varied. In addition, a test stand is specified on which such a method can be carried out.
