Presetting Ink Keys via Network
|
With InkZone Perfect, Digital Information offers an interface between prepress and press that’s equally powerful and economical.
First, the solution provides networked ink key presetting, so color start-up is accomplished in a fraction of the previous time, bringing a clear increase in productivity. What’s more, InkZone generates a database of your settings, allowing corrections and continuous improvement in results over time.

Drag & drop: straightforward operating with mouse or touch screen
|
|
This makes InkZone Perfect a component that’s indispensable on the road to a standardized printing process.
Consider the following: As you use InkZone Perfect, it compares the computed preset data with the corrected values during each press run. By reading back the values measured throughout the print run, the calibration curve for a given set of printing conditions can be continuously corrected and will gradually approach an optimum. When it comes to repeat orders, that means a further boost to the speed of set-up sequences, significant savings in paper, and a permanently stable, high-quality printing process.
|
Using the appropriate hardware components IZ Card, IZ Strip, IZ Tape, IZ eFloppy and IZ Wire, ink key presetting with Ink-Zone Perfect can be realized on almost all offset presses.
An investment in extending your workflow to the pressroom with InkZone Perfect from Digital Information is worthwhile. From the hundreds of printers using InkZone worldwide, experience shows the ROI horizon to be only a few months away.

Monitor calibration - the first step to accurate colour
A properly calibrated monitor is essential for colour critical work such as digital photography or graphic design. A profiled screen gives you a trusted source for viewing your images, meaning when you build profiles for other digital devices you can be confident in the results.
We stock the Silver Haze Pro monitor calibration device from Quato the leading manufacturer of high end colour accurate displays from entry level to advanced. These monitor profiling solutions provide colour accurate LCD, CRT and laptop calibration; the whole process can take less than 10 minutes.

How GrafiLite can help
Working near a window during daylight hours is one way to make sure you are assessing colours in the appropriate light. But what happens when it gets dark? Your source of natural light is gone, and once again you are faced with potential inaccuracy and inconsistency of colour. GrafiLite provides a convenient, portable source of simulated daylight, meaning you can benefit from daylight conditions anywhere at any time.
Remember, it is not just lighting conditions that can affect the appearance of colours; surrounding colours can affect your judgement too. With this in mind, the GrafiLite has been designed with a non-distractive, neutral grey lamp surround. Each GrafiLite is also supplied with a neutral viewing mat, providing a surface which will not affect the appearance of colours – meaning the colour of your desktop will not prejudice image assessment.
