Colour validation
Learn about colour validation tests
VarioPrint i-series colour validation tests and the output profile accuracy test provide you an
objective method to evaluate the colour reproduction on the media you select. The reference
printing conditions of the default colour validation tests are already defined, as well as their
quality levels and tolerance levels.
The pre-defined FOGRA and IDEAlliance colour validation tests verify against digital print
certifications. When you want to check the colour reproduction of the printer against other
printing conditions, you can define your own colour validations tests.
The output profile accuracy test verifies how accurate the output profile fits the colour
reproduction properties of the media.

Benefits of colour validation tests
You can perform a colour validation test for several reasons:
1. You want to know if the printer is able to print the colours on the selected media according to
a reference printing condition.
2. You want to know if the printer is able to print the same colours on the selected media over
time.
3. You want to check the colour reproduction against: FOGRA Print Standard Digital
Certification, FOGRA Validation Printing System Certification, or Idealliance Digital Press
Certification Program.
4. You want to check the colour reproduction on the selected media against your own reference
printing condition. Therefore, you create your own test and define your own printing
condition, quality levels, tolerance levels and metrics.
Digital print certification
The available pre-defined, industry standard colour validation tests meet one or the following
digital print certifications.
1. DPC: IDEAlliance Digital Press Certification
