On-Site Seal Printing Inspection
When clients have a strong emphasis on the final print quality and color accuracy, there is an option called "on-site inspection." This allows for real-time color checking and adjustments.
What this means is that clients can be present at the printing site, giving instructions such as "This part looks a bit too blue" or "Can you make it a bit lighter overall?" to achieve the perfect color. This is the essence of on-site inspection.
Benefits
The main advantage is that you can ensure the color meets your satisfaction. In most cases, color proofing is sufficient, but for those with a strong preference for color accuracy, on-site inspection is a good option.
Additionally, if you wait until the product is completed, you can take it home with you. Of course, you can also leave immediately after checking the color, and we will take responsibility for the shipment.
Who Uses This Service?
Designers responsible for final output, salespeople from printing companies, and manufacturers tend to use this service. Additionally, some come as overseers when the color produced by another company was unacceptable, and failure is not an option. Others visit as a pre-check for future orders.
How to Request
To request an on-site inspection, simply inform your contact at the time of the quote or after placing your order. We will then coordinate the printing process and your visit schedule.
Cost
There is no charge for on-site inspection.
Procedure When You Visit
We will have the target color as close as possible before you arrive. First, you will check this and provide specific instructions.
Since the color of the printed material does not change instantly even after adjusting the ink or density, you can wait in the waiting room or watch the color change in the printing area.
Our waiting room is equipped with Wi-Fi, so you can work while you wait. Recently, some customers even played shogi (Japanese chess) while waiting (laughs).
Waiting Time
The waiting time depends on the number of colors and items, but it generally takes about 10-15 minutes for one color change. The total time will vary depending on how many colors and items need adjustments. Some people leave after giving an OK immediately, while others stay for the entire day.
On-Site Seal Printing Inspection Summary
On-site inspection is effective when you want to ensure the final color is just right. It's a good last resort when there's no time for color proofing or when the project cannot afford any mistakes.
