Validation Tool 115 output according to an industry standard. On completion of the validation check, the Validation tool generates a report indicating if the validation passed or failed. The report also presents the results of the tests on all the ISO standard categories. The Validation tool supports the following devices: ● Konica Minolta Intelligent Quality Optimizer ● Konica Minolta FD-9 spectrophotometer ● Konica Minolta FD-7 spectrophotometer ● Konica Minolta FD-5 spectrophotometer ● X-Rite i1 spectrophotometer ● X-Rite iSis spectrophotometer To achieve the best color match the print engine must meet the following preliminary conditions: ● Have a color gamut that is similar or bigger than the aim ● Have good uniformity of the printed area ● Have stable colors from print to print ● Use paper stock similar to the aim paper stock ● Have a fresh calibration to the tested paper stock ● Have a new custom destination ICC profile of the tested paper stock When these conditions are met, you can run the Validation tool and generate a report that shows if the validation passed. When performing the next round of Validation tests of the same paper stock there is no need to create a new destination profile, you only need to recalibrate. If the report indicates that the validation has failed, it is probably because there is no match with one or more of the above conditions. You can check which category failed and try to correct it.
