Method for controlling the metering of ink in a printing press, printing substrate, printing plate and printing press having a device for creating halftone image data

摘要

A method for controlling the metering of ink in a printing press uses a control unit for comparing measured color values established on a print control strip to target color values and for controlling the metering of ink in the inking units of a printing press. The method is distinguished by the fact that the halftone of the measurement fields used for establishing the measured color values in the print control strip is independent of the halftone of the printed image. A printing substrate, a printing plate and a printing press having a device for creating halftone image data are also provided.

主权项

1. A method for controlling the metering of ink in a printing press, the method comprising the following steps:
comparing measured color values established on a print control strip with target color values by using a control unit; controlling metering of ink in inking units of the printing press by using the control unit; independently providing a halftone of measurement fields in the print control strip used for taking color measurements and a halftone of a printed image; and the halftone of the measurement fields of the print control strip reacting insensitively to an effect of defects in a printing process and the defects being doubling or slurring.
