West Press: Mastering Each Process

West Press customers benefit by getting the very best color management control available. "The G7 process allows us to provide them with 100 percent-verifiable accuracy of color reproduction throughout the entire workflow, from digital image to the final printed press sheet," adds Johnson.

Attaining G7 Master Printer status also prompted the shop to become more environmentally aware of the products it was using. The company now uses a single-step ethylene, glycol-free fountain solution; inks that contain 79 percent soy-based renewable oil resins; and its solvent VOC emissions are now only 32 grams/liter.
