The Evolution of the Proof
The proofing process is progressing. Here’s an update on some of the latest ink-jet, toner and virtual solutions.
The Epson 880 series printers have selling prices starting at $1,995 for the 17? version while the HP DesignJet Z-series start at $3,400.
In addition to ink-jet printing systems, many in-plants also use their color laser printers to produce proofs. These printers produce acceptable quality for many organizations and are considerably less costly from a supplies perspective. Also, color laser printers can quite adequately mirror the performance of toner-based digital color presses.
