The Paper Influence on ICC-Profiles

An ICC-profile created for a printing press or a printer includes all parameters that influence the colour rendering. These consist of the influence of the press and the materials used as paper, ink, blanket and plate. Many graphic arts companies use different paper qualities as well as different printing presses. There is an evident risk, that the amount of profiles that has to be made and used, easily can become too large to be handled in the workflow in a practical way.
