A well made Dupont 'DP10' proof from a AQ4
machine acceptably matches the
targets and tolerances of the paper type 2 colour space and TVI curve B in
the ISO 12647-2:1996 specification. In fact the proof when compared with a
near perfectly ISO calibrated press print looks almost identical. There is a
slight difference in greys between the two prints - the Dupont proof being
slightly green or the ISO print being slightly warm depending on your
preference. Either way the similarity between the proof and print is very
good.
In the ISO 12647-2:1996 the gray balance standard was 50 C, 40 M and 40 Y.
System Brunner, if I remember correctly, used for Eurostandard 50 C, 39 M
and 39 Y.
Would that explain "Slightly warmer"?
Globalstandard from System Brunner as used in the US had other values.
In ISO 12647-2:2004 Gray balance is not a major issue anymore.
