Why do UV flatbed inkjet printers need proofing before printing?

2020-03-17

     The uv flatbed printer does not need plate making, plate printing, and repeated color registration, and no matter it is a simple fast color pattern, a full color pattern or a gradient pattern, it can be printed at one time, the printing image is fast, and the finished product is finished. Therefore, uv flatbed printers must do pre-press testing and proofing before mass printing.

     The pre-press proofing of the universal flatbed printer is the connecting process between pre-press production and the official start of printing. It is to allow customers to check the final printing effect before printing in order to make changes, so as to avoid errors in the mass printing process. When the time comes It takes time and effort to make changes. Flatbed printer pre-press proofing can also have the following effects:

     Universal printer pre-press proofing can help customers check whether the text, images, colors and page settings contained in the printed pattern are correct, so as to make timely modifications. Especially the color of the pattern is the most difficult to control in printing, because different printing materials, inks, and dot gain rates will cause changes in the color of the printed pattern. Therefore, it is possible to conduct a proofing test before mass printing to see if the color is consistent with the design color, and make changes in time before mass printing.

       The pre-press proofing of the uv flatbed printer can be used as a contract sample between the printing manufacturer and the customer. The final printing effect needs to be consistent with the contract sample, and the contract sample is best printed out shortly before the mass printing work, so as to avoid fading and distortion of the sample due to the long storage time.

       Pre-press proofing of uv flatbed printers is an important basis for printing quality control, and it is also a tool for communicating with customers. If customers want to do what they want, what effect they want, and whether they are satisfied, they can print out the sample first, discuss the effect, and modify it after completion , and then mass-produced. Pre-press proofing can reduce disputes between printing manufacturers and customers due to unsatisfactory printing effects, saving time and effort.

       The printing operation of the universal printer is convenient and the printing speed is fast. You only need to prepare the pictures to be printed in the computer, and then click print to start the printing work, realizing one-click printing. We need to process pictures or design patterns before printing. At this time, we are required to use drawing software. What drawing software are commonly used in universal printers?

       The most widely used drawing software for universal flatbed printer printing and drawing is PS. The full name of PS is Adobe Photoshop. It is a bitmap image processing software developed and developed by Adobe Systems. It is widely used and is one of the most popular application software for windows system. The expertise of PS lies in image processing, editing and processing of existing bitmap images and using some special effects to combine different objects together to change the image to achieve the ideal picture effect. PS is used for graphic design, advertising photography, video creativity, architectural design renderings, etc.

       CorelDAWGraphicsSuite, referred to as CDR, is often used when flatbed printers print drawings. GraphicsSuite is a vector graphics production software developed by Corel Corporation of Canada. CorelDRAW can be used for both vector graphics and page design, as well as image editing. Simple operation can realize a variety of dynamic special effects and real-time effects of dot matrix images, commonly used in presentations, color pages, manuals, product packaging, logos and other design editing.

       Adobe illustrator, or AI for short, is often used by designers who make pictures for universal printer printing. Adobe illustrator is a vector-based graphics production software launched by Adobe Systems. Adobe illustrator is an industry-standard vector illustration software used in publishing, multimedia and online images. It is a very good image design processing tool that provides rich pixel drawing functions and smooth and flexible vector graphics editing functions to quickly create design work Process, design image size can be scaled freely. The biggest feature of AI is the use of Bezier curves, which makes vector drawing with simple operation and powerful functions a reality. AI is widely used in printing and publishing, poster book typesetting, professional illustration, multimedia image processing, etc. It can also provide high precision and control for line drafts, and is suitable for producing any small design to large complex projects.

       In addition, if the customer has special requirements, linear software needs to be installed. Universal printer pre-press image processing is very important. The higher the precision of the image produced, the better the printing effect. Only when the pattern is clear and vivid can the ideal printing effect be achieved.
