Countdown to Drupa: Xerox eases colour management for inkjet
Xerox is helping print providers reduce the time consuming, process-intensive colour correction procedure for production inkjet presses. Print shops running inkjet presses without an inline spectrophotometer, regardless of manufacturer, can maintain consistent colour from job to job with Xerox’s IntregratedPLUS Automated Color Management (ACM) solution. Without any additional hardware investments, the ACM solution maintains accurate colour with the use of a scanner and laptop., Business

With no colour expertise required, the solution automates colour correction processes, decreasing the number of steps and drastically reducing the downtime of a press from hours to minutes. Simply scan a printed sheet, send it to the cloud via ACM and the details are delivered back in minutes.
With built-in automation capabilities, the solution ensures that print jobs are achieving predictable and accurate colour throughout the entire production process. ACM can improve productivity, increase workflow efficiencies and simplify color management so print providers can focus on getting more jobs through their shops. The system provides specification feedback for press operators along with procedures for any out-of-spec engine that requires color maintenance.
“IntegratedPLUS Automated Color Management reduces workflow complexities and increases accuracy with automation of press monitoring, profiling and spot colour updates,” said Mike Lacagnina, World Wide IntegratedPLUS Business Manager, Xerox. “At Drupa, we’ll be showcasing how this solution reduces workflow steps from 34 to nine on the Xerox Rialto 900 inkjet press.”
