Insurance - Dreaded Pantone Color Consistency Issues

Industry:     Insurance

Situation:    Insurance Company – 300 employees

Challenge:    Dreaded Pantone Color Consistency Issues

  • Could not consistently reproduce corporate Pantone color for new logo.
    • New logo design was critical to maintaining the new corporate image.
    • If these could not be produced internally, jobs would need to be outsourced resulting in higher costs.
  • Could not reproduce new marketing materials because of large areas of heavy black coverage.
  • Needed to print accurate Pantone colors from Adobe Acrobat and InDesign - Mac platform.
  • Could not manage Pantone colors from these applications with current device – were looking at outsourcing - which would mean higher costs.

Solution:    ImagePress C1,  ImagePass T1

  1. Improved color fidelity and accuracy by using the improved color printing capabilities of the ImagePress C1.
  2. Improved color control of Pantone colors by using the Spot-On Feature in Command Workstation and the color workflow features of the ImagePress Mac print driver.

Results:    Speedy PDFs and Increased Efficiency Plus a Bonus: Tracking

  • Saved more than $500 per month (approx.) in anticipated outsourcing costs by printing the marketing materials in-house on-demand - $6,000 per year (approx.).
  • Projects with tight deadlines are produced in-house and will not be affected by dependency on outsourcing vendors, who have at times not met the company’s deadlines.
