How does screening affect RGB-Values?

    I would need the RGB-values of ACI-Colors with screening applied.

    For example:
    I have a hatch with ACI-color 171 where the plotstyle applies screening 40%. According to http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/item?siteID=123112&id=2886443&linkID=2475323 ACI-color 171 has RGB-values of 127.5 / 127.5 / 255.

    What are the RGB-values of the screened color?

    Can i calculate them like this:
    127.5 x 0.40 = 51
    255 x 0.40 = 102
    -> RGB 51 / 51 / 102

    We need to match color-output with some external consultants who can only apply their plotcolors in RGB. They do use the same plotter (hp 1050c) as we have.

    Thanks for any input
