Selection Comparison between Automatic and Manual Proofing Methods for Ink Proofing Machines
This article compares manual and automatic proofing methods for ink proofing machines. Manual proofing relies on the operator's experience, offering flexibility and lower initial costs, but it suffers from poor consistency, making it suitable for research and development or low-frequency usage.
The ink proofing machine's color development and ink distribution pressure are not set correctly, making the printed sample sheets unacceptable.
The ink proofer is crucial in printing quality control, as it ensures the even distribution of ink on materials by adjusting pressure. If the pressure is not properly calibrated, the proof may exhibit issues such as uneven color and inconsistent ink layer thickness, rendering it unsuitable as a reference for printing.
