Hi Paul,
However it's not easy to evaluate standard conformity of inks correctly.
This requires extremely expensive equipment (printability tester, lab
environment, ..) and the use of another international standard: ISO 2846
not ISO 12647-2.
So all you can do in real live is printing on your production press and
compare with the aim valaues of 12647-2.

Florian

Hi Paul,
Florian is right stating that the control of ink is very expensive and
requires a lot of equipment and experience.
Some research institutes such as UGRA are providing these measuring services.
I know that some vendors (such as BASF and SunChemical) provide those
measurements too. It's not free of charge!
Most probably BASF/K+E ( I don't remember their new name, right now) in the
UK will be able to do that too.
I copied this e-mail to the UK branch
