MeasureColor and the IntelliTrax2 automatic scanner empower confident management of digital color targets!

Release Time： 2026-03-24 00:00:00.000

MeasureColor empowers confident management of digital color objectives.

Effective management of digital color targets and ICC profiles has always been critical for delivering consistent, high-quality results. Without a structured system, color control can easily be lost, leading to printing errors, waste, and increased production setup time.

This is precisely where the MeasureColor Color Target Manager comes into play. It delivers a centralized, intelligent solution that empowers printers to confidently organize, maintain, and deploy digital color standards—ultimately building a smarter color target management system.

MeasureColor’s Color Target Manager offers a smarter way to manage digital color targets. It organizes color data into color books and groups them by printing conditions—defined as the combination of variables such as printing process, ink type, substrate, and measurement conditions (M conditions).

This structure enables you to:

● Store a universal color target that can be used under various conditions

● Assign a specific target under the relevant print settings.

● Organize the colors into a primary color and secondary colors.
Seamless integration with your workflow

Whether you operate a traditional offset, flexographic, gravure, or digital printing workflow, MeasureColor ensures that your color targets remain consistent across departments and print locations. The Color Target Manager supports:

● Direct import/export of standardized file formats.

● Instant access to targets from quality inspection or the printing workshop tools

● Integration with CxF-based ink color-matching software.

● Access the PantoneLIVE Standard Library to ensure consistent color reproduction across various substrates and printing processes.

By ensuring that all operators work from a single source of truth, you can reduce variability and achieve faster, more consistent color matching across different print runs.
Why It Matters: Print Quality Starts with the Right Target

Poorly managed color libraries often lead to confusion and material waste. With the Color Target Manager:

● Operators always use the correct version of the color target.

● Keep ICC profiles up to date and easy to apply.

● Spot color differences are tracked and minimized.

● Color decision-making is based on spectral comparison rather than visual comparison.
