The shift between different printing processes, the use of various substrates or changing printing conditions are still associated with a lot of work and time in prepress and data processing. Customized color profiles help to overcome these problems. With the latest release of GMG ColorServer, the color management expert presents for the first time a direct connection to GMG OpenColor, which enables the automated use of specific separation profiles in the workflow.

Many systems create prototypes that only resemble the final product. With the Epson SureColor SC-S80600, coupled with GMG OpenColor and GMG ColorProof, as well as a portfolio of prototyping substrates, users can finally create packaging samples that are color accurate, meaning they look and feel just like the final product. A variety of prototype substrates is available to the user, including shrink films, folding carton materials, metal foils, self-adhesive label materials, transparent films and even transfer foils for producing mock-ups on actual production media.

Johannes Betz, Head of Marketing and Academy at GMG, will give a lecture on Friday, September 27, 2019 in the Inks & Coatings Masterclass at Labelexpo Europe on "Digital Color Communication - from the ink kitchen to the customer". In hall 11, room 1101, he will speak at 9:00 am on how color is communicated today, the usage and visualisation of color references and new possibilities of digital color communication via color cards.
