DuPont™ Cromalin® b-series is the first and only drop-on-demand inkjet proofer that
can automatically keep itself calibrated. A robotic calibration module on the inkjet’s printhead includes a specially configured Gretag “Eye-One®” spectrodensitmeter that feeds data to the DuPont™ CromaNet™ proof server. As a proof is printed, the calibration module verifies that the printer is operating at a consistent and known level of performance so that the ink and media profiles used to create the proof will remain accurate. This automated calibration eliminates some of the variables that can be caused by manual calibration, such as speed, pressure, and human error.
Automatic Calibration
Auto Calibration with an on-board spectrophotometer measures a color chart as it is being printed by the Cromalin® b-series print heads. The color chart contains 328 color patches, including extras for establishing accurate grey balance. In addition to the accuracy delivered by having an online spectrophotometer, the new feature reduces calibration time from 7 to 3 minutes.
