Print Quality Scoring: Friend or Foe?

PRINT QUALITY SCORING: FRIEND OR FOE?
PRINT QUALITY SCORING: FRIEND OR FOE?
With the advent of the spectrophotometer, flexographers’ ability to measure color and establish pass/fail limits has greatly improved the quality and consistency of the printed product.
Building on that ability, the print quality score has pushed to quantify not just a pass or fail, but also distance from a perfect match.
The print quality score helps gain a better understanding of the metrics that might go into a quality evaluation, even ones that can’t be measured with a spectrophotometer.
Get an inside look at print quality scoring from a brand that requires it, agencies who monitor it, and printers who control it to improve print quality and consistency.
