Gravure Printability From Laser And Electromechanically Engraved Cylinder, Xiaoying Rong, Jan Pekarovic, Alexandra Pekarovicova

Graphic Communication

Gravure printability comparison of laser engraved and electromechanically engraved cylinders was done on five different substrates. Ink transfer was less reduced on laser print than electromechnaical when printed without electrostatic assist. Print mottle was significantly lower and yellow, magenta and black laser engraved images, while cyan print from laser engraved cylinder had higher mottle on some substrates (SCB, SCA and freesheet). Overall, the print quality than that from the electromechanically engraved one.

Quantitative Analysis Of Icc Profile Quality For Scanners, Xiaoying Rong, Paul D. Fleming, Abhay Sharma

Graphic Communication

ICC profiling software is widely used in the graphic arts industry. The quality of a scanner profile created by profiling software using a single training target is discussed. A more stringent quantitative analysis of the profile quality is proposed. Different targets from different photo paper manufactures are used as the testing targets to compare the quality of the profiles. A grayscale was also used for testing the ability of profiling software to preserve gray balance.
