GRACoL/G7

What a difference a little variance makes…consistency matters

SWP has the honor of holding a GRACoL Master Qualification. G7 calibrates proof-to-press and press-to-press across any printing method.

G7 benefits include:

• Faster make-ready
• Greater consistency
• Higher quality
• ISO standard press output
• Reduce costs
• Less waste
• Decrease turn-around times
• Avoid re-makes
• Acquire print predictability: know what you’ll get on press-before you get there

G7 stands for quality under contol, using a color spectraophotometer. In this case, a SWP pressman does not “eyeball” the color. Instead the pressman monitors the spectometer at 50-sheet intervals.

Color Spectophotometer benefits:

• Measure color bars on sheets
• Records in database
• Pressmen check against standards
• Maintains color balance throughout job
• Simplifies future reprints
• AAA-assured accuracy always
• SWP processes leverage technology
• Assure color and finish consistency
