They might have been ex-Philips people (like most of the country) but they
were not owned, to my knowledge, by Philips and never purchased by Paterson--
which went down the Jordan and were purchased, I think, my Nova.
Lici used some very special sensors from Japan and got some investment capital
to shift the technology to digital publishing. The result was the company
Spectrostar BV (Color becoming Spectro) and Ihara Electronic Industries
(the makers of the sensor) then picked up a largish minority share. I think
they somehow morphed into Avantes (not clear on what happened)..

Make copies of the manual.. and read it.. and read it.. And think a lot--- the
CS-3000 is not the most "user friendly" gadget ever made.. and the manual is
not that great.. some things even wrong.. and there are lots of ways to use it
that are not in the manual.. etc. etc.
