Ink Saving and Quality Improvement

The INK SAVER module of PRESS MATCHER has been developed to not only create substantial ink savings on press but to also optimize the entire production process.

With an ink reduction of usually 20 percent or even more, not only a significant cost reduction is achieved, but also a substantial increase in print quality.

An overall lower ink coverage optimizes print contrast and enhances visible details. Spot and brand colors are also displayed more precisely.

Printing with less ink automatically leads to faster drying times and significantly increases your production speed. Print capacity that can be used for new customer orders. As a result, you can process more print jobs from your customers at the same time!

Besides that, negative effects from environmental factors are also minimized. Banners and signboards are less susceptible to fading and abrasion.

Printing more jobs means more profit; usually, INK SAVER pays for itself within less than a year.

More details:

Ink savings and cost reduction
With INK SAVER, substantial ink savings of at least 20 percent are achieved. Depending on the print process and the colors, users report even higher savings. This is particularly true in large-format printing, where advertising materials like posters or banners are reproduced.

Printing with less ink means cost can be significantly reduced. Typically, the investment usually pays for itself within one year. In addition, ink saving has many other positive effects, such as
reduced print head wear.

Quality improvement
Paradoxically as it may seem, high-speed inkjet printing benefits from substantial quality improvements when ink usage is reduced.

The most noticeable improvements are increased contrast and shadow detail, as well as improved rendering of spot and brand colors – especially those in the red area, typically a challenge for
high-speed inkjet printers.

Faster drying times
Ink usage and total ink coverage is greatly reduced. This allows for significantly faster drying times and therefore higher production speed. Increased productivity means more sales and higher margins.
Environmental resistance
A lower total ink coverage can also prevent negative impacts of environmental factors. Prints become less susceptible to fading and abrasion, for example. This is an important asset for promotional material.
Increased workflow productivity
INK SAVER uses device link profiles for converting job data. This ensures a fast and smooth production process and short processing times, even for very large jobs. IPDS environments are fully supported.
Environmentally friendly
With INK SAVER there are not only economic benefits, but also benefits for the environment. Reducing total ink coverage is by no means a negligible contribution to making your processes more environmentally friendly. This is especially true for processes that use large amounts of UV inks, as these inks have the highest savings potential, resulting in less ink waste.
Long-term experience & color expertise
We provide simple-to-use software solutions for all of your needs related to color management, proofing, prototyping, certification and quality control - the best and effective way to optimize your entire production process. Our proofing solutions are complemented by a large portfolio of specially developed substrates for creating color-accurate proofs and packaging prototypes.

    X GAMUT

    Achieve accurate spot colors and brilliant images - simply using CMYK+X

    Special colors are especially eye-catching, but to work with them requires effort and expense. Extra inventory, higher prices, frequent color changes, and subsequent wash-up and press downtime all add up to reduced flexibility in job processing and significantly impact the whole production workflow.EDP Award WinnerLogo

    As a result, the printing press is not used to the best of its potential, and productivity drops. That costs time and money.

    With X GAMUT, the fully automatic color management software for extended color printing on digital and conventional presses, spot colors can be accurately reproduced by using a standard fixed 7 or 8 color ink set (CMYK+X). Commonly, orange, green, and violet are added to CMYK.

    That means you do not need to mess around with special ink mixes anymore. This considerably streamlines the production process since no press wash-ups, changeover times are necessary, greatly reducing ink inventory and waste. As a result, the software helps to reduce allover costs enormously - for printers and clients alike.

    However, X GAMUT is not only ideally suited to reproduce spot and brand colors precisely. The perfect match of software features and intelligent workflow tools in X GAMUT enable printers to leverage the full gamut of the press and ink set so that images are brilliantly printed in all detail – without the need for special inks. This has made X GAMUT an important tool in the photo printing industry, too.

    XG EN Gears


    More details:

    Spot color reproduction and correction
    With X GAMUT you can reproduce spot and brand colors easily, accurately, and reliably with a fixed set of extended process colors. Typically, orange, green, and violet are used, but many other combinations are possible.

    No matter which ink configuration you use, X GAMUT makes optimal use of your printer’s entire color gamut and reproduces spot and brand colors very precisely. The colors can also be optimized and verified.

    Increasing image color saturation
    Another important field where the strength of X GAMUT comes into play is the reproduction of RGB data. The color management software makes optimal use of the extended color gamut and delivers stunning print results with vivid, saturated colors – perfect for photo printing applications.
    Separation and optimization of spot colors and images
    The key to a perfect result is the intelligent separation of the measured color into the extended fixed set of process colors used in the printing process.

    Spot and brand colors are replaced and reproduced without any spot inks while maintaining visual and colorimetric integrity. The conversion process optimizes the color data by reducing the number of separations to a minimum, thus minimizing the risk of moiré and clouding.

    As a positive “side effect” this also reduces the total ink coverage, leading to shorter drying times and a leaner production process.

    Creation of multi-color profiles
    With X GAMUT you can easily create multi-channel profiles that can also be used in other applications.
    Test chart generator
    The built-in test chart generator allows you to create custom test charts for your printing presses. These test charts are essential for the CMYK+X color conversion process to characterize the color space of your printing system.

    X GAMUT supports all commonly used measurement devices, including the latest models from X-Rite, Konica Minolta, or Barbieri.

    Management of spot color libraries
    The X GAMUT software includes standard spot color libraries from Pantone and HKS. In addition to that, you can also create your own libraries and import and edit color data via CxF. There is also a direct interface to the CXF CLOUD to communicate all colors with all of their spectral properties easily and quickly all over the world.
    Central control
    Trust is good, control is better: With our easy-to-use software CERTIFIED users are able to quickly verify prints for color accuracy and to store and evaluate all kinds of data from different devices in a central location. This gives every authorized user a detailed overview at any time.

    More details:

    Automated repeatability and consistent colors
    Different operators on different days? Jobs that need to be reprinted periodically? PRESS MATCHER is the answer.

    Color balance is automatically maintained, day-in, day-out, and the patented technology guarantees to achieve ideal print results - even after a longer period of time, anywhere around the world and across different devices and printing processes.

    Neutral Gray
    Due to changes in the environment, print-outs vary from day to day as the gray balance shifts. Ideally, the system should always remain a perfect balance between Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow also called neutral gray. Achieving this manually is challenging and can be time-consuming.

    PRESS MATCHER is the first solution in digital printing that recognizes color shifts and automatically compensates them.

    Smooth gradients
    Gradients are a quality characteristic. Smooth gradients depend on an optimal color management setup and an interaction between calibration, paper profiling and neutral grays.

    The setup of this balance can be very time-consuming and cost-intensive. PRESS MATCHER unifies all these steps into one single process, ensuring that colors stay repeatable and stable.

    Standardization
    PRESS MATCHER complies with industry printing standards, like GRACoL, SWOP, FOGRA, ISO Coated, and Uncoated. More recent standards such as PSO Coated v3 (FOGRA51) or PSO Uncoated v3 (FOGRA52) are also supported.
    Normalizer
    Not all digital files are created in the same way. User errors, nonstandard desktop applications, and legacy file formats lead to unprintable files and production downtimes.

    PRESS MATCHER’s normalization functions take the worry out of this by automatically creating clean printable files. This guarantees a stable and seamless print production process.

    Wide gamut workflow
    PRESS MATCHER’s wide-gamut workflow makes use of the print device´s entire color gamut. This ensures high-quality RGB color reproduction with stable and reproducible print results. Wide gamut color matches can be optimized iteratively. Different input color spaces such as sRGB and Adobe RGB within the same PDF are handled perfectly, as ICC input profiles and rendering intents can be set individually.

    This workflow is the ideal way to render RGB data – with vivid saturated colors and stable neutral gray tones. This is important for the production of photo books, posters, banners, signboards, and
    similar products.

    Saving cost & optimize processes
    PRESS MATCHER‘s INK SAVER module enables you to reliably optimize your ink and toner consumption. This has a positive impact on print quality and your entire production processes, such as better shadow details and shorter drying times. Please follow the links and discover all benefits.
    Spectral data
    With PRESS MATCHER you can also create and process CxF/X-4-defined spectral color data. The use of spectral data allows you to match spot colors and overprints perfectly and consistently. To create, edit, and analyze spectral data, we recommend the use of our CXF TOOLS application.
    Central control
    With the EVALUATE certification software, prints can quickly and easily be checked for color accuracy. The direct interface allows all data from different devices and locations to be collected and evaluated centrally, giving you a detailed overview.
    Long-term experience & color expertise
    We provide simple-to-use software solutions for all of your needs related to color management, proofing, prototyping, certification, and quality control - the best and effective way to optimize your entire production process.

    Our proofing solutions are complemented by a large portfolio of specially developed substrates for creating color-accurate proofs and packaging prototypes.

    CERTIFIED & EVALUATE

    Simple and effective quality control for proofs, press sheets, digital and conventional print systems

    Simple and effective quality control is essential for delivering optimal print results and consistent quality. Ideally, the system informs the user, whenever a device or process deviates from a set standard and requires optimization or user intervention.

    CERTIFIED enables you to easily measure and evaluate color wedges on any proof or press sheet. Color wedges for commonly used standards such as SWOP, GRACoL, 3DAP, FOGRA are included and custom color wedges can be added easily.

    To verify spot colors, users can create their own color set by selecting spot colors from a library or entering its LAB values. CERTIFIED measurement results can be printed on a self-adhesive label to be put on the proof or as a detailed report.

    The intelligent tool provides company-wide overviews, detailed reports, and trend analyses - all with just a few clicks. Clear facts help you to avoid any discussions about color problems.

    The web-based software can be easily integrated into existing infrastructures and workflows. It is extremely effective and flexible and at the same time easy to use thanks to its intuitive wizard-based user interface.

    Optionally, it connects to the EVALUATE web server, to which the measurement results of all monitored devices are automatically saved. The data can be accessed and evaluated from anywhere in the world via a web browser.

    CXF TOOLBOX & COLOR CLOUD

    Organize & communicate brand colors with all spectral properties – easily & effectively

    Communicating colors simply but precisely is becoming more and more important in our globalized world. Especially brand owners do not want to compromise when it comes to color reproduction. Why should they?

    EDP Logo 2021From initial design to the digitally or conventionally printed product, color communication always needs to be reliable, effective, and easy. The ability to organize brand color information with all of its print-related properties is the essential basis for that.

    CxF is the key. With this format, it is not only possible to transport all characteristics of brand and spot colors.

    Since it is an open standard, CxF can also be used immediately by anyone involved in the production process. This makes CxF data the ideal basis for an uncomplicated management and exchange of spectral color data – locally or in the cloud.

    CXF EN Gears

    With CXF TOOLS you can quickly generate, manage, and analyze CxF data. Even existing libraries can be corrected easily.

    Comprehensive digitalization of color optimizes the coordination and production processes and makes them much faster and less expensive. This ensures that media designers have exact specifications at hand and use the correct color at any time. CxF also assures correct ink formulation by the ink manufacturer. By embedding CxF data in the artwork file, you can be sure that it always contains the latest color information relevant to the printing company.

    The result is consistent color reproduction in every print run and perfect brand colors worldwide!
