ORIS Color Tuner system is first through FOGRA

CyraChrome’s contract proofing system from CGS passes all tests with flying colours.

Local prepress and proofing specialist, CyraChrome, continues to set the pace in colour proofing with the news that its ORIS Color Tuner system has been awarded FOGRA certification by the leading European testing agency.
ORIS Color Tuner, developed by publishing software specialists, CGS Publishing Technologies International, is the first automatically-calibratable, drop-on-demand inkjet proofing system to be FOGRA certified. It was also the first proofing system of its kind to receive the comparable North American certification, SWOP, in early 2003.

In December 2004, FOGRA issued its technical findings on different combinations of CGS media and Epson Stylus Pro 4000 printers, citing ORIS Color Tuner as having met or exceeded certification requirements, including for colour accuracy, proof repeatability and consistency over time.

The tests included three CGS papers designed to meet the proofing requirements of publication and commercial printing. The test files included the Altona suite of PDF/X files, which ORIS Color Tuner processed perfectly. All measured test results were well within FOGRA’s requirements for proofing accuracy and quality.

FOGRA certification is especially important for publication printers seeking colour consistency for complex, multi-page jobs printed at multiple print locations worldwide. CyraChrome managing director, Michael Laird, (Pictured) said the award reinforced the superiority of the CGS system in colour critical publishing and printing environments.
“The fact that ORIS Color Tuner has been certified for multiple media types further emphasises its advantage over other proofing solutions on offer in the region and demonstrates once again the ability of CGS to deliver world class industry solutions.

“Our users can be confident that no matter where their input material is sourced from, whether it’s North America, Europe or locally, ORIS Color Tuner will be able to produce colour accurate proofs every time.”
