FULL STORY
Committed to helping customers maximise their investments in meeting ever-increasing demands for high-quality colour output, the Kodak Print On-Demand Solutions Group has announced receiving the prestigious FograCert Validation Printing System certification for its Creo Color Servers family of products.
Certification by the Fogra Graphic Technology Research Association recognises the added value that Creo Color Server Technology brings to the printing industry by delivering consistent and predictable colour results time after time. Creo Color Servers are known worldwide for their outstanding colour and image quality, offering advanced handling of extended colour gamut with up to 7-colour separations to achieve excellent results in colour rendition.
‘This certification from Fogra is an important achievement for us and our customers,’ said Hezy Rotman, general manager, Kodak Printing Workflow Solutions. ‘Not only do digital printers require high-quality colour-they need to be able to count on the colour quality each and every time they execute a print job. Their livelihood depends on this level of colour consistency and predictability.’
Furthermore, certification from Fogra recognises Creo Color Servers' outstanding colour performance, managed by automated colour management and image enhancement tools that provide a consistent, accurate reproduction of offset-oriented colour gamuts from digital presses. The collaboration of Creo Color Server professional colour management and industry-leading printing systems provide commercial printers the ability to predict and produce vibrant images consistently.
Fogra, based in Germany, promotes print engineering and its future-oriented technologies in the fields of research and development, and enables the printing industry to utilise the results of this activity. Fogra certification is awarded through participation in an elaborate and demanding test program. The concrete list of certified combinations can be found on the FograCert Website (Fogra report number: 23652).
