Abstract: | Digital printing is affected by several parameters including printer and paper type which determine the final printed color gamut and the quality of reproduction. For investigation of those effects, tests were done on the three types of laser printer and six types of paper with different properties of whiteness, roughness, and gloss. The gamut volume was generated by Eye-One spectrophotometer, ProfileMaker, and ColorThink software. Properties of the different types of paper were measured by the atomic force microscopy, spectrophotometer and, goniophotometer. Results showed that the reproducibility was considerably dependent on the type of printer and type of paper. High whiteness and gloss increased the color gamut volume, while high roughness decreased the reproducibility of the printer. Tests on paper properties showed that whiteness had the most significant effect on color gamut volume. |
