Abstract
Most media used for POP display are not paper-based substrates. Finding an appropriate digital print configuration becomes crucial for color reproduction of display media. In most situations, running a digital printer wide-open without ink restriction will not achieve the most accurate, repeatable color. A third-party raster imaging processor (RIP) software interprets raster and vector data files for a specific postscript printer in either RGB or CMYK mode. By controlling CMYK inks directly, RIP software can provide better control for accurate digital color reproduction while reducing ink consumption. The purpose of this project is to reduce ink usage while achieve accurate/repeatable digital color reproduction for display media by establishing a digital print configuration with RIP software for tested display media. Four commercially available display media (DuPont Tyvek, Polypropylene, Satin Cloth, and Vinyl) were used in this study. A third-party RIP software, CGS ORIS Color Tuner, was used to control an Epson Stylus Pro 4800 inkjet printer. The ink usage was determined in terms of amount of ink restriction. Color reproduction quality was evaluated in terms of color gamut volume and inkjet-hooking diagram.
