We're moving into the G7 calibration method; we're also getting another printer. Epson 9800 or 9880.
We're wondering if the proofer software (EFI, Oris, gmg) makes any difference on hitting the Gracol 7 specs.. We need to be within a 1.5 delta E of our client.
If it will help; we run Trueflow 3.12 going up to 4 within a week. We're running an epson 10600 with Chroma Pro/Chorma net software.
All we do is drap and drop tiffs over to the ChromaPro to proof our layouts. Backed up dyluxes and contact prints.
We checked on the differences between those and EFI seems to be the more user friendly.
But I don't understand what all the others could do for us, especially with the new g7 stuff.
I'm no expert, so I would appreciate some opinions.
Thanks
Rande
PS. Any opinions on G7 would be welcome also.
Is it a good idea getting certified to tweak the curves or is just learning to calibrate good enough?
I'm confused, do you need the ideAlliance curve software to calibrate or just make new curves, if you're certified.
Has anyone gotten their ink companies to come in and get you G7 compliant for free?
Any other thoughts would be great.
Thanks
