A Case for G7 Printing in Packaging

Finally, once you have the process optimized you need to validate that the process is repeatable—every day, every shift, with every operator. Just having spectrodensitometers press side and taking measurements is not proof either. Track a few jobs between presses, shifts, and operators to identify where there may be inconsistencies requiring more attention. Now obviously, process control is not unique to G7 or gray balance. It is one of those 101-level concepts that we all know we should do, but often we don't treat it with the importance it deserves. Just like a musical instrument, the longer you put off checking and tuning your process, the further it drifts from its desired calibrated state.
