The company focuses on NCR sets, pads and business forms but client demands for increasing amounts of direct mail and transactional print have meant Multisets has had to deal with more exacting process colour requirements.
The project was managed by Paul Sherfield of the Missing Horse Consultancy and covered training and the development of colour-managed workflows covering the main paper stocks used for process colour printing to meet ISO 12647/2.
To help reprofile images the company installed Alwan CMYK Optimiser colour server and callibrated lighting conditions for consistent viewing including installing GTI D50 viewing booths at some locations.
Multisets director Iain Cox said: "We now have some of the best software and hardware in place to enable us to meet our clients' expectations in this area.
"We are seeing the benefits of using a colour-managed workflow every day. And because of the system and training, the company, as a whole, is much more confident and competent when dealing with colour issues."
The company is extending the project to a programme of client education, with training for larger clients, site visits, and making its ICC colour profiles and other key colour tools available.
Sherfield said: "This was a challenging project. Controlling narrow-width business forms presses to an ISO 12647/2 printing condition is unusual, but it was made easier by the enthusiastic directors and staff at Multisets and their wish to improve their product."
