A closer look at the Inspectors
Print Inspector
Provides an online dashboard which shows the color accuracy of each printing device. Email notifications can be scheduled to alert key staff before problems arise.
Instrument Inspector
In the real world, measuring instruments are not always accurate. The Instrument Inspector enables you to check the precision of your devices and "harmonize" them.
Lighting Inspector
The Lighting Inspector allows you to verify your lighting is correct. Along with the Color Inspector, you can precisely select color palettes under specified lighting conditions and visually see the affects.
Substrate Inspector
Paper is often underestimated in the printing process, but in the typical four CMYK process, substrate is a fifth color.
