Idealliance, a global thought leader in the graphic
communications industry and a non-profit organization with 11 strategically
located offices around the world, announces that both the HP Indigo commercial
digital presses and the HP Indigo Label & Packaging presses have been
certified with Master Elite Level ISO/PAS 15339 Certification designations.
Idealliance ISO/PAS 15339 Certification is an element of the Idealliance
Digital Press Certification for digital printing press manufacturers, allowing
OEMs to certify and demonstrate press aptitude capability as it relates to
capability to print to specified color spaces and color tolerance control.
By achieving the highest level of the Idealliance
Digital Press and Master Elite Level of Idealliance ISO/PAS 15339
Certification, HP Indigo presses clearly demonstrated not only their capability
to print to the largest color gamut, Universal Extra Large CRPC 7, within
CIEDE2000 tolerances as specified in CGATS TR 016-2014, but also their
capability to hold color consistently.
“This certification is a significant differentiator
for OEMs such as HP Indigo,” said Timothy Baechle, Idealliance Vice President,
Global Print Technologies & Workflows. “It offers buyers of technology
empirical data upon which to base their purchasing decisions as well as
offering print specifiers great confidence in production coming from HP Indigo
technology. It is important to note that in achieving this certification, HP
Indigo sheetfed presses driven by the HP SmartStream digital front end, held
tighter tolerances than outlined in the Idealliance ISO PAS 15339 Master Elite
bracket, which is an outstanding achievement. Our congratulations go out to HP
Indigo and its entire technical staff for their tremendous work in achieving
this status.”
“We are proud to be the first digital printing
company to have received the Idealliance ISO PAS 15339 Certification,” said
Aviram Iluz, Color Management Product Marketing Manager, HP Indigo. “This achievement
is a testament to our commitment to continuously innovate in the realm of color
and print quality and enable our customers to drive higher margins and grow
their businesses by winning color critical clients. The ability to provide
superior color that is accurate, consistent, and repeatable, sets our customers
a step ahead of their competition. We are grateful for Idealliance’s consistent
effort in driving the printing industry to achieve the highest performance in
creation, production, and delivery of graphic communications.”
