Press Fingerprinting & Characterization
One-time forensic lab analysis capturing your offset press's unique "DNA" — dot gain curves, density profiles, tonal reproduction and gray balance. Achieve predictable color, reduce waste, and provide audit-ready proof for brands/suppliers — no on-site visit needed.
Our Expertise & Results
We deliver traceable, repeatable data to optimize plate curves, tighten tolerances, and ensure consistent matching. Printers typically achieve significant makeready time reductions (5–20%+ via better pre-press and fewer trials) and substantial waste savings from faster starts and stable runs.
Backed by GMI and G7 expertise, this provides defensible proof for brands, streamlined workflows for printers, and measurable ROI (fewer reprints, quicker approvals, higher-value jobs).
Who This Helps
Print Service Providers — Documented performance for better plate curves, tighter tolerances, G7/ISO prep, quicker makereadies, premium contracts.
Brands & Agencies — Supplier consistency verification with defensible data for audits, multi-printer alignment, reduced reprints.
Printers Pursuing Certification — Baseline for GMI, G7, GRACoL, or ongoing checks — ship sheets only.
What You Receive
Detailed branded PDF report (executive summary + full data)
Visual charts — dot gain curves and density profiles
Raw CSV data file for RIP calibration or internal QC
Pricing & Details
$2,995 (one-time fee per press)
Curve4 instruction add-on available (contact for quote)
Turnaround: 7–10 working days after sheet receipt
