Using ChromaBlast ColorSure™ and Custom Palette
I. Introduction
ColorSure
is a method for reproducing exact spot colors. There are four main
components of the
ColorSure System
:
1)
the
Transferred Palette
;
2)
Color Finder
;
3)
Custom Palette
; and
4)
the
CorelDRAW
and
Adobe
application palettes / swatches.
1.
ColorSure Palette
: This is your main color palette that includes a wide variety
of commonly used colors.
2.
Color Finder
: If a color you need is not on the
ColorSure Palette
, the
Color
Finder Tool
allows you to locate the exact custom color you are looking for.
3.
Custom Palette
: With the
Custom Palette
feature, you can add new custom
colors to the existing
ColorSure Palette
mentioned in
Step 1
.
4.
Application Palettes:
You can add your
Color Finder
colors to an existing
application palette, or you can add multiple custom colors to new,
custom palette files (
*.cpl, *.acl,
etc.).
II. Printing the ColorSure Palette
The first step: Print and transfer your
ColorSure Palette
to the
various substrates you will be using. Most likely you will have customers who
desire precise colors. Having your
ColorSure
palette available allows the
customer to choose the color from the palette that is the closest match to
what they want, and this gives you a starting point for finding the exact
custom color that will match your customer’s needs.
To print the ColorSure palette, follow the steps below:
• Click
‘Start’
and navigate to the
‘Printers and Faxes’
folder. Right-click on
your
ChromaBlast WorkForce 30
icon and select
‘Printing Preferences’
from
the menu. You may also open
ChromaBlast WorkForce 30
from within an
Adobe
or
Corel
program by going to
File, Print,
and choosing the
ChromaBlast
WorkForce 30
printer from the pull-down menu. Click
“Properties”
to open
ChromaBlast WorkForce 30
. Select the
ChromaBlast WorkForce 30 Tab.
• Choose the paper size you will be printing the palette to (
Letter, Legal, etc
).
• Select the speed / resolution of the palette –
High Speed
or
High Quality
.
• Be sure to check the box to mirror your print, click
‘Print Palette,’
and then transfer
the palette to the previously selected material.
• You now have a visual representation of how the
ColorSure Palette
colors will
appear on that particular texture, tone, and weave of material.
