matching industry references and that job repeatability and reproducibility are within desired expectations, and they can also be used to accurately iterate plate curves to bring the press into G7 conformance. This enables dedicated press runs to become a thing of the past. ChromaChecker has a number of predefined G7 Calibrated Control Bars for different press ink key widths and key zones. Chroma- Checker subscribers have full access to the ChromaChecker library.


Conventional Press without Export Capable Automated Measurement Devices that Can Export Data


ChromaChecker has engineered G7 Calibrated Control Strips that can be measured with portable measurement instruments (like scanning i1Pro and Exacts) that allow you to position small strips within the press sheet. This data can also be used to accurately iterate your plate curves to bring your press into G7 conformance.


Benefits to Benchmarking Devices— Productivity and Profitability gains


Many companies do not understand how their output devices manufacture color related to precision and accuracy, and yet, it is imperative to understand these two attributes in order to troubleshoot and fix your color process if it is not meeting expectations.


• ChromaChecker will significantly reduce waste because operators will know if current prints are


sellable, and if not, stop printing immediately eliminating unnecessary waste.


• Most companies print any way, any day. They have very little precision or accuracy and their customers don’t complain if their expectations are not met; they just go elsewhere.


• Some printers have better control of their output devices and have scanning spectrophotometers to assess their process, which provides consistency but not accuracy.


• Some printers don’t have scanners but do update their profiles, or G7 tone curves, regularly, giving them decent accuracy but not great consistency.


• The best printers have both consistency and accuracy and do not print jobs over again. They are correct the first time and they know it, and they can prove it to their customers. These are the printers that make up less than 15% of the industry and make more than 10% gross margin on sales.


The person who submits the print with the lowest E-Factor compared to GRACoL will win a free iPad mini.
