Upgrading to a new sheetfeeded press and a new CTP (Heidelberg Suprasetter), I have been repeatedly told by the local dealer, that I should profile the new press that is about to come next month.
This kind of belief is making me having some second thoughts on my up to now workflow, which was based on ISO coated V2. That is how I was converting colors from RGB spaces and also printing
Proofs with GMG soft and Epson 4800-9800 printers and I was mostly happy color-wise. Now this gent insists I could achieve much higher CMYK space, using a custom made profile. He actually demonstrated
a 3D color space difference between ISO coated and a custom profile, which appeared to be much larger to my surprise. Could that be possible with modern inks? Wouldn't that be very difficult to maintain-upgrade and how many problems would that cause to my workflow? I would like to read your opinions on this matter.
Many thanks to all,
George
