Hello,
I am involved in bringing a sheetfed press to ISO 12647-2:2004 printing standards for
paper type 1, 2 and 4. Therefore, I measured all common printing stock that this
particular customer uses with a Gretag Spectrolino, and ranked them according to the
conformity of the Lab values for these particular paper types. It was no problem finding
paper fit for types 1 and 2, but every sample I took of his uncoated white stock was too
blue. The b* values were going from -6.4 to -7.2 (white backing).
My advice to him was to get some Zanders Zeta Matt white, because that was used for the
Altona tests.
Is there any other paper that qualifies?
Best wishes,
