Tuesday, May 19, 2009 — Techniques for Color Control with Digital Output DevicesThis session will cover how-to techniques to trouble shoot different color control issues for any color output device. When a file does not render as expected, the problem lies in one of three areas, either the files is bad, the RIP is not configured properly, or the printer/substrate is not performing properly. This session will cover a methodical process to determine not only where the problem is coming from, but also great strategies to solve the problem. There will be hands on lessons in this workshop.
