Abstract

In gravure printing ink in printed flexible packaging considering the characteristics of the study more accurate color management options and results were as follows. When applying G7 calibration, P2P of the target GRACol G7 evaluate the delta $L^*$ and delta $F^*$, CMY and K-scale average of the results of delta $L^*$ and the highest tolerance G7 average of 1.5 and 3.0 are included in all the best. In addition, the average delta $F^*$ and super delta $F^*$, G7 tolerance by being included within the scope of color management, G7 calibration was possible. Target IT 8.7/4 CMYK, when applied to the calibration G7, Color gravure printing machine is applied to the average of the previous decreased from 12.4 to 3.6. In addition, if a digital proof is EPSON WT 7900 the average color applied to the previous reduction from 5.24 to 0.74 because of the gravure printing color proofing system was effective in the management. G7 calibration by applying the reference print profile of the Epson WT 7900-G-icc, the average was 0.74 coloration, and gravure-G-icc cases, the average color of the 3.60 per GRACol average of all the five colors below were included within the allowable range. Thus, the flexible packaging gravure printing color management of printed after applying the first G7 calibration, the results refer to the press by the profiling, and where best to take advantage of the profile creation was good.
