its Capabilities in Mexico

Who helped one of the world’s largest manufacturers of liner board improve their printing quality in Mexico? Jefferson Smurfit reached out to Schawk for a technical analysis of the print conditions at their plant in Mexico. The goal was to push their process color work as far as possible within the technical constraints imposed by the process and substrate. Jefferson Smurfit also required true-to-life color proofs that accurately represented what would be achievable on-press.

Schawk provided graphics consulting and prepress, first analyzing the plant’s printing capabilities before producing film negatives and prepress proofs. The result? Jefferson Smurfit’s process color work in Mexico is no longer characterized by the typical symptoms of low line screen rulings on linerboard. Process color work now has greater highlight detail and smoother vignettes.

Print quality is better than ever, color proofing is more accurate and reproducible with technical consistency. Jefferson Smurfit successfully increased its print production gamut capabilities allowing them to deliver a higher quality product to their customers while at the same time eliminating inconsistencies on-press. This gives Jefferson Smurfit an important competitive in this market. Open up color in your world. Consult with Schawk to find out how.
