The problem
Profiles did not reliably connect the on-screen view with output, and repeat jobs required further corrections. The complexity of the previous system meant only experienced color specialists could intervene.
Implementation example
UK-based Signtech faced recurring mismatches between screen, output, and previous runs. PrintFactory’s white paper describes its move to DeviceLink profiling.
Prepared and reviewed by the CRINTAC team
published capacity increase
stated DeviceLink profile creation time
Profiles did not reliably connect the on-screen view with output, and repeat jobs required further corrections. The complexity of the previous system meant only experienced color specialists could intervene.
Signtech introduced PrintFactory with DeviceLink profiles. Direct conversion into each printer’s space and recalibration against an initial reference state were used to align devices and substrates.
The white paper reports a production-capacity increase above 25% and DeviceLink profile creation in under 10 minutes. The team could maintain color more independently and reproduce earlier jobs more easily.
The result is published in a PrintFactory white paper. Profiling time and capacity depend on the printer, substrate, measuring instrument, settings, operator, and production process.
