The ChromaQA software is very user friendly and it seems to be designed for the printer. We were able to quickly get the system installed, our staff trained, and have already noticed shorter color match times on press. Currently, we have the Techkon software in use to check and maintain color on our 4 presses along with the QC of all inks coming out of our ink room.
