Colour Care
A ColourCare contract will ensure that your printing equipment, whether inkjet or laser, large format or small, prints at the best possible quality and gives the best possible colour match.
A benefit of having colour-managed printers is that the colours between different devices will become much more accurate and consistent. Our colour specialists will check and calibrate your machines at regular intervals and make sure that your printer continues to reach the required consistent standard. Another benefit of having calibrated machines is that you will often see an improvement in sharpness and detail.
Until recently, the quality of colour printing has all too often been in the eye of the beholder without containing any objective or pre-defined criteria. It was a case of ‘industry experts’ trying to implement a colour standard based on what they thought was visually correct to the eye.
We use Fogra as the standard when setting up your workflow. Fogra is an independent and globally recognised organisation for implementing ISO standards in the graphics industry. Fogra implements ISO printing standards that are now recognised as the industry standard for offset, web and flexographic printing. By adding an UGRA-Fogra test wedge to your prints, you are able to verify that the colour is correct and remove any doubt over colour accuracy.
By setting up your colour workflow correctly, different paper stocks will produce matching results and can simulate the relevant ISO standard for the ultimate finished product. This means that your customer is able to visualise how the final product will look all the way through the various stages of the design process.
Whether you just want better colour from your printers or an accurate Fogra-calibrated workflow, a Colyer London ColourCare contract will ensure that the output from your own printing machines is as accurate as possible and is the best possible quality that your devices can produce.
