Presslink continues to keep up with the latest technology in the printing and graphic arts industry. Soon, it will implement the GRACoL 7 Technology

GRACoL 7 methodology is based upon actual press commercial sheetfed runs to ascertain typical, good, press conditions. Over fifteen printing providers contributed measurements that were averaged together and finally refined to define the new GRACoL 7 recommendations for exceptional printing.

GRACoL 7 or the G7 Process is a departure from using density solely for press calibration, now including spectrophotometry to measure neutrality. The result is an improved color balance across multiple printing presses and printing technologies including Web, Sheetfed, Newspaper, and Flexographic.

General Requirements for Applications in Commercial Offset Lithography (GRACoL) was developed by IDEAlliance to improve communications and education in the graphic arts by reporting the influence and impact of new technologies on commercial offset lithography
