Member price: $1,440.00
Non-member price: $1,695.00

SpotOn!TM is an easy-to-use process control tool with a powerful visual dashboard for tracking on-going press and proofer conditions.  SpotOn! makes it easy for any print shop to test and generate charts showing the consistency of their printing and proofing processes.  By adding a 29-patch control strip to press sheets and scanning it with an i1TM spectrophotometer, SpotOn! allows you to achieve and maintain optimum results to GRACoL® and SWOP® specifications.  SpotOn! monitors presses and proofers for:

  • Solid ink density variations
  • Ink Solids and Overprints compared to ISO standards
  • G7 Neutral Print Density deviation
  • TVI (dot gain)
  • Gray Balance deviation
  • Average Deviations over time
  • Density to DeltaE Trends
  • Density to NPDC, TVI Trends

SpotOn! software is easy to use.  You do not have to be an engineer or a press expert to use this tool and understand what the reports are telling you.  Plus, by monitoring the printing process, printers will be able to maintain tight tolerance during press runs, thereby, producing higher quality products with less re-do's.  SpotOn! helps printers produce more consistent results, match proofs better, reduce waste, and improve customer satisfaction.
