With the onset of wide format inkjet technologies into the commercial printing market one of the biggest questions to arise is, how do we evaluate and define quality of the print.

The best way to diagnose a printing problem, control color conditions, and optimize press operation is to analyze press performance regularly. Printing Industries of America carries a variety of test forms to help do just that.

Understanding how to correctly expose and process plates, as well as film, is a critical part of process control in the prepress department. With the advent of CTP systems and digital printing, these imaging controls have moved to the forefront of the pursuit of quality print.
