APR to Host Seminar on Expanded Color Gamut for Flexo
All Printing Resources (APR) announces that the company, in conjunction with Esko and BOBST, will hold a two and a half day seminar June 19-21 at the company's Glendale Heights, Ill., Technology Center. The seminar is open to all printers and converters and will present the continued developments of 4-color and 7-color expanded color gamut (ECG) flexo printing. An event highlight will be live press runs on APR's in-house BOBST flexo presses including press set-up, make-ready and all the process control required for a productive and efficient pressroom.
With the marked rise in digital press adoption rates, printers and converters are seeking uniformity between their conventional and digital print formats and the APR June seminar will help companies achieve greater color parity between conventional and digital processes. Catherine Haynes, Technical Training and Resource Specialist at APR comments, "This is an ideal workshop for printers and converters that have multiple print processes and are looking for similarity between different systems. With digital printing, converters have to move away from spot color printing and essentially using ECG with flexo is doing the same thing. It's a way to do more graphically and to achieve colors that weren't viable with only using spot colors because, like with digital, there's a fixed set of inks that are being used."
The seminar is designed for printing professionals interested in better understanding the processes, tools and systems required for successful implementation of ECG and G7. Due to the hands-on components of the seminar, a multitude of personnel departments and job functions will benefit from attending including prepress, marketing, sales, plant management, and process engineers. Seminar sessions will target topics from design to prepress image conversions, to pressroom ink selection, to process control. Live software and pressroom exercises will be incorporated each day.
