Zarządzanie barwami ICC oznacza przepływ zleceń, który jest przewidywalny, spójny i powtarzalny od uzyskania obrazu przez wydruki próbne do końcowego wyniku. Aby uzyskać przepływ zleceń w druku, należy skalibrować urządzenia i utworzyć profil ICC dla każdego komponentu, w tym aparatu, monitora, projektora, skanera i drukarki.   Dlaczego warto kalibrować i profilować? Aby uzyskać najlepiej dopasowane barwy, należy skalibrować każde urządzenie, które uczestniczy w przepływie zleceń w celu ...

Softproofing – the ability to simulate how an image will appear in print right from your monitor – can save a lot of time and effort in your printing workflow. Although many photographers already rely on it, anyone who designs, approves, prepares or prints brand and color-critical images can also benefit. With softproofing, designers can create with actual specified colors (no more trial and error!), project owners can approve layouts without physical proofs (predictable color!), and...

Phone and computer screens are the window into the digital world of color, but if you are approving colors via email or text you need to be aware of the limitations.  For starters, each of your devices relies on a different color model to display color. Input devices – your camera and monitor – use the additive color model to display color. They start with darkness and add red, green, and blue light to create a spectrum of colors. Printers, on the other hand, use the s...

Today, with help from Digital Imaging Expert Scott Martin of Onsight, I will share tips and tools to help printers profile textiles for a consistent digital workflow. While smooth textures can often be measured using traditional digital tools, fabrics with texture or specular reflections (like coated canvases) can cause issues. It's a lot harder to achieve ...

Chociaż druk cyfrowy istnieje od wielu lat, branża przechodzi dramatyczne zmiany. Pozytywną stroną technologii druku cyfrowego jest wykorzystanie bardziej trwałych farb, tuszy, oferujących wyższą niezawodność, dłuższą żywotność druku oraz ogólną oszczędność kosztów i efektywność. Jednak te zmiany oznaczają również, że drukarnie muszą dostosować swoje sposoby działania, aby pozostać konkurencyjnymi.   Według  Allied Market Research, globalny rynek cyfrowego dr...

We’ve all done it. Snapped a picture on a digital camera or smart phone, sent it to the computer, made a few adjustments, then sent it off to print…. only to be disappointed. The sky looks green. Grandma’s hair is purple. The contrast is so far off you can’t even see that cute little puppy. Stupid camera. The struggle is real for so many people, from hobbyist to professional photographers, graphic designers, and professional printers. Let’s look into this all-too-common mystery of the off-color ...
