Hainburg, Germany / Minneapolis, MN -- CGS Publishing Technologies International, global leader of color management solutions, digital proofing systems and specially formulated media is pleased to announce Impress Communications of Chatsworth, California, has selected ORIS Color Tuner to support its commitment to environmentally responsible print and design solutions while providing the highest quality color.

Impress Communications is a turn-key visual communications company providing Commercial & Specialty Printing, Digital Photography, Graphic Design and Website/Interactive services.  The company has made a major commitment to environmental sustainability incorporating operational efficiencies and leading edge technology solutions like Oris Color Tuner to achieve this goal. The company also supports the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) by communicating the positive impact of using FSC Certified Papers to its customers as a certified chain-of-custody printer.

Production Manager, Jeff Chiarella, stated, "Impress Communications needed a color proofing and management solution that would support consistent color within all departments of the company.  We did our research and discovered ORIS Color Tuner provided the consistency we required for our customers.  Color management is a cornerstone of the Quality Control workflow we have created.

He went on to say, the big differentiator is that CGS provides excellent support.  "All the staff is responsive and listens to our needs.  They have been able to address our requirements and implement the ORIS solutions into our workflow.  We like to deal with a vendor that is a partner not just during the sale, but well after the deal is done."

ORIS Color Tuner provides the functionality to color manage from monitor calibration to offset printing to digital printing.  Every aspect of production at Impress Communications is assured to be consistent day to day through the color managed workflow powered by ORIS Color Tuner.

Commenting on how ORIS Color Tuner helps Impress Communications meet its environmental sustainability objectives, Chiarella says, "Everyday we calibrate our proofers using a spectrophotometer, to assure our proofs are consistent from day to day.  Customers have the expectation of consistent color proofs from one day to the next.  The net result of our dedication to color management equates to less proofs, less remakes and less paper used in the "make ready" process.  The end result is less waste in our manufacturing process, less impact on the environment, and a highly satisfied client."
