Commercial, packaging and specialty printers can reduce waste, boost profitability, and grow their print business by keeping their colour data digitally connected from design through to production.
At PRINTING United, taking place from October 18-20 in Atlanta, X-Rite Incorporated and Pantone LLC will demonstrate how a connected ecosystem of colour measurement, specification, formulation, and quality control solutions helps printers simplify print workflows, exceed brand requirements, and improve print quality.
‘As the costs of materials and inks rise, print providers need integrated solutions that streamline workflows to better manage shorter print runs, last-minute design changes, and tighter colour tolerances,’ said Jon-Michael McCartney, Director Print and Packaging, X-Rite. ‘At PRINTING United, we will demonstrate how production printers of all sizes can add consistent, precise colour quality control into their workflow – during specification and design, throughout formulation, on press, and in the finished product. With a digital colour workflow, print providers get to approved colour faster, saving time, and improving productivity while reducing ink and material waste.’
Visitors Can Explore X-Rite’s Comprehensive Range Of Colour Workflow Solutions, Including:
EXact 2™ Portable Spectrophotometer: X-Rite’s most versatile, connected, and easy-to-use measurement device for optimising the print workflow, from formulation through quality control. It offers enhanced accuracy and speed, non-contact video measurement and zoom technology, onboard Wi-Fi, and software connectivity, and can measure across substrates.
ColorCert Suite: providing an overall view of print quality and colour performance through a single number score, this tool ensures compliance with brand specifications.
InkFormulation Software: delivering fast, accurate, consistent ink formulations, this software handles formula creation, storage, approval, and retrieval for offset, flexo, gravure, and screen-printing inks.
NetProfiler Device Optimisation Platform, a cloud-based platform that validates and optimises spectrophotometer performance, ensuring colour consistency between devices and across the print and packaging supply chain.
Reducing colour appearance variability, the i1Pro 3 Plus Colour Profiling Device allows printers to create ICC profiles for almost any substrate, including paper, film, textiles, vinyl, and other materials, and calibrate digital presses for the highest colour accuracy.
Designed for mid to large-sized commercial printers, the IntelliTrax2 Pro automated scanning solution provides instant feedback on job performance with direct integration to the ColorCert Suite. It is a G7® Press Control System Certified by Idealliance® and supports PSO and ISO print specifications.
In addition, attendees will learn how an X-Rite G7™ Certified Expert can help print owners achieve G7 compliance. X-Rite also offers support services to keep digital workflows running smoothly with a range of device maintenance plans.
