See Live Color-Logic Demonstrations in the Sharp Booth at PRINTING United EXPO 2024
04/09/24 09:53
West Chester, Ohio, USA; September 2024 -In the Sharp Electronics booth at PRINTING United expo in Las Vegas, September 9-12, show attendees can see live demonstrations of the Color-Logic metallic system. Color-Logic--the undisputed world leader in metallic color communication and embellishments for every printing process--is now included with every SHARP BP-1200S 6-color digital press. At the show, graphic designers and prepress personnel can see exactly how Color-Logic has simplified the metallic embellishment process by reducing hours of work and expensive trial press runs to just a few mouse clicks. A major feature of the Color-Logic suite is the ability to design once and print out any file using SHARP silver toner with CMYK on paper, or using SHARP white toner with CMYK on metallic stock.
Commenting on the display at PRINTING United expo, Mark Geeves, Color-Logic Director of Sales and Marketing, said: "Color-Logic has partnered with Sharp Electronics to show the utter simplicity of the Color-Logic design process. Printers considering a digital press purchase should be particularly interested because the Color-Logic process has vast implications for both printer prepress personnel and graphic designers preparing metallic files and other embellishments for printing. Color-Logic significantly shortens the design, prepress, and on-press time required for virtually any print job calling for metallics."
Also being demonstrated in the Sharp booth (and included with the SHARP BP-1200S 6-color press) is the Touch7 software suite developed by the same team that produced the renowned Color-Logic metallic software. With Touch7, graphic designers and prepress personnel can take full advantage of expanding color gamut using the SHARP pink fluorescent toners available on the new SHARP press.

01/08/22 08:34

To date, more than 70 digital press and printer models using metallic and white inks or toners to print on paper--or white inks or toners to print on metallic substrate--have been certified by Color-Logic.

The fact that virtually every digital press and printer manufacturer choses to work with Color-Logic signals the wide-spread acceptance and need for Color-Logic software to enable successful metallic color communication and the creation of print embellishments."
Geeves continued: "Most certification processes in the print industry focus on quality, reproducibility, and repeatability--all very important to our process. Unlike other certifications, however, the Color-Logic certification is about the ability of the printer or press--based on the substrate, inks and coatings used, as well as press conditions--to produce metallic embellishments for the 924 Color-Logic metallic hues. We focus on how to differentiate print; our color charts and test form--consisting of three 12-inch by 18-inch sheets, or 10 feet of a web roll of paper--seek to demonstrate to brands, agencies, and printers what can be done at the design stage using the Color-Logic plug-ins and palettes for Adobe Creative Cloud. The world today is about differentiation and personalization. Our efforts with our press and printer manufacturer partners are focused on helping our printer customers achieve differentiation and personalization for their brand clients in significantly less time and with less pressroom waste than is possible without Color-Logic today."

Color-Logic More Than Doubles Gold Colors Available to All Licensees – Offering Particularly Important for Printers Considering new Digital Presses
24/01/22 09:21
West Chester, Ohio, USA; January 2022—Color-Logic has announced that the number of different gold colors available in its basic Color-Logic license has been expanded from 25 to 55. For most jobs, Color-Logic users will no longer find it necessary to stock gold inks or substrates, or to match golds using trial or error. Color-Logic Director of Sales and Marketing Mark Geeves, discussing the palette expansion, said: "Many digital press manufacturers now offer silver and gold inks or toners to compliment their traditional CMYK inks or toners. But without Color-Logic, these presses are limited to a single gold color. Color-Logic licensees now can offer their customers 55 different gold options--and these golds can be used not only as spot colors in designs but in the many embellishment options available in the Color-Logic software. Perhaps even more important, digital press owners no longer need to waste precious production time swapping out silver ink or toner to run gold."

Color-Logic Enables Digital Variable Metallic Data Printing Using Adobe InDesign
25/10/21 09:07
West Chester, Ohio, USA; October 2021— Designing for digital printing is fast becoming a critical issue for agencies and freelance graphic designers. The ability of digital processes to support variable data printing means that designers for both commercial printing and packaging must learn how to handle the complex files involved. Add metallic printing to the equation, and many designers become overwhelmed with preparing the necessary white ink masks, as well as the peculiarities of merging databases with otherwise simple print files. To address these issues and to vastly simplify the graphic design work involved, Color-Logic has prepared a detailed tutorial specifically detailing the steps involved, using the Color-Logic software with Adobe InDesign to produce print files guaranteed to clear all the hurdles presented by digital presses.
Variable data printing on digital platforms is nothing new, but Color-Logic brings an entirely new dimension when digitally printing on metallic substrates with white ink or toners for commercial print applications. Digital printing with white ink or toner on metallic stocks requires designers to make a white ink mask. If any change is made to an element, font, or image, a new white ink mask is required unless the designer is using Color-Logic. By using Color-Logic at the design stage with the digital output on metallic stock, a design can include variable foil colors and embellishments in fonts, elements, or images. Coupons, magazine covers, wedding invitations, greeting cards, posters, and tags are just a few of the applications appropriate for variable data metallic digital printing.
Adobe InDesign now has variable data support built in, so by using InDesign with the Color-Logic Design Suite, any designer can easily add metallic variable data into their clients' printed marketing pieces by using a licensed and certified Color-Logic printer. To demonstrate the ease and strength of the Color-Logic/Adobe InDesign combination, Color-Logic has released a short video explaining how digital metallic variable data printing can be used to create a striking magazine cover. The video can be seen at here. The Color-Logic system is compatible with most major digital cut sheet pressed (HP Indigo, Ricoh, Xeikon, and Xerox) with white ink and a RIP compatible with Color-Logic.
Discussing the Color-Logic/Adobe InDesign breakthrough, Mark Geeves, Color-Logic Director of Sales and Marketing, said; "Many industry reports attest to the value of variable data printing and metallics as relates to quality and consumer appeal. The 280 Color-Logic metallic colors and unlimited embellishments, together with Adobe Indesign, is a game-changer that drives up response rates for all commercial print applications."

Color-Logic Broadens Certification of Ricoh Pro 7200sx Cut Sheet Presses to Include New Ricoh Silver Toner
18/10/21 09:07
West Chester, Ohio, USA; October 2021— Color-Logic has broadened its certification of Ricoh Pro 7200sx Series cut sheet presses to include those now available with Ricoh silver toner. Discussing the certification, Mark Geeves, Color-Logic Director of Sales and Marketing, said: "We are pleased to certify the Ricoh Pro 7200sx series cut sheet press with Ricoh silver toner. Using this press, certification test prints on Ricoh-certified papers--prepared using files produced with Color-Logic software and run using the new Ricoh silver toner--met the criterion required for Color-Logic certification. Color-Logic licensees can be confident this press series with silver toner meets the stringent Color-Logic standards."
Geeves added: "The Color-Logic System™ is the only color communication software for use with metallic toners and metallic based substrates. The Color-Logic palettes enable licensed Color-Logic printers to provide 250 metallic colors, of which 25 are shades of gold, utilizing Ricoh silver toner or silver-based substrates. The Color-Logic palettes enable designers or printing prepress personnel to create embellishments for each color, from which printers can produce truly differentiated materiel on the Ricoh Pro C7200sx series presses."

Color-Logic Adds 30 New Metallic Gold Colors
03/06/21 09:10
West Chester, Ohio, USA; June 2021— Color-Logic—the leader in metallic color communication and print embellishments—has more than doubled the number of metallic gold colors available to Color-Logic licensees. The 30 new metallic gold colors, together with the 25 gold colors previously included with the Color-Logic System, enable licensed Color-Logic printers to provide their clients with 55 unique metallic gold colors by utilizing only one metallic silver ink, toner, or substrate. The 30 new metallic gold colors bring the total number of Color-Logic metallic colors to 280. No longer is it necessary to stock gold inks or substrates, or to match golds using trial and error.
Discussing the issues facing printers using silver or gold in their digital presses (or considering one of the new digital presses offering a fifth-color station for metallic inks or toners) Color-Logic Director of Sales and Marketing Mark Geeves commented: “Manufacturers of digital presses are beginning to offer silver and gold inks and toners to complement traditional CMYK inks and toners. But without Color-Logic, digital printers are limited to a single gold color, while Color-Logic licensees can offer their customers 55 different gold options. And these golds can not only be used as spot colors in designs, but in the many embellishment options offered by Color-Logic as well. Digital press owners using the Color-Logic System no longer need to waste precious production time swapping out silver ink or toner to run gold."
Regarding the importance of the announcement to printers using cut sheet metallic substrate in digital presses, or rolls of metallic substrate in wide format printers, Geeves said: "Color-Logic automatically produces the white ink masks required for printing on metallic substrates. The availability of 55 predictable and reproducible metallic gold colors significantly reduces file preparation time and eliminates frustrating and repetitive on-press color matching.”
Color-Logic licensees may produce their own swatch books, using their substrates, press standards, inks, and coatings. The print embellishments offered by licensed Color-Logic printers enable internal or external graphic designers to dazzle clients with metallic colors. The dramatization and personalization options available with the Color-Logic System provide the most economical and most easily implemented embellishments available to printers.

21/04/21 09:16
West Chester, Ohio, USA; April 2021— Color-Logic CoFounder and CTO, Richard Ainge, who also developed the Touch7 Neon process, recently briefed PRO Members of PaperSpecs on the power of the new fluorescent inks available on the latest digital presses.

Color-Logic Celebrates Ten Years of Making Metallics Manageable
03/06/19 10:11
West Chester, Ohio, USA; June 2019—In early 2009, into the teeth of the most severe recession ever suffered by the printing industry, Color-Logic introduced its Process Metallic Color System--the only graphic design software package that simplifies and standardizes metallic print production, creating foil printing using white ink/toner or silver ink/toner. Since that 2009 introduction, the Color-Logic system has remained affordable and easy for both conventional and digital printers to implement. A key Color-Logic feature links printers with graphic designers and brand managers, making them partners in the successful execution of metallic designs.
Color-Logic was developed by Chief Technology Officer Richard Ainge and Director of Sales and Marketing Mark Geeves, both of whom remain active in the company. Today Color-Logic is supported by virtually every digital printing press manufacturer offering white ink/toner or silver ink/toner. Color-Logic has consistently worked with press, substrate, and coating technology partners around the world and has evolved with process and equipment technologies.
After ten years, Color-Logic has installations in more than 50 countries, and in the past three years some 90 percent of Color-Logic sales have occurred outside the United States. In 2019, sales to printers with digital presses are expected for the first time to exceed those to conventional printers. Labels and packaging are particularly strong markets and consistently demonstrate a speedy return on investment in Color-Logic. For printers using any process, Color-Logic offers educational videos and easy-to-follow training that enable designers to quickly understand the technology and use it to produce metallic files that are consistently reproducible without seemingly endless trial-and-error.

Color-Logic To Deliver Brand Solutions for Printers at PRINT 17
29/08/17 08:35
West Chester, OH; August 2017—Color-Logic--developer of the Process Metallic Color System--has received the coveted MUST SEE 'EMS award, in connection with PRINT 17, the international graphic arts exposition to be held in Chicago in September. The award recognizes the security features licensed Color-Logic printers can offer their brand clients, in addition to the striking printed metallics produced on digital presses. Said Mark Geeves, Color-Logic Director of Sales and Marketing, in accepting the award: "Color-Logic Security-FX for digital presses is economical and enables virtually any brand to bring products to market faster while making them difficult to counterfeit. The Color-Logic Security-FX technology is executed at the design stage, which means it integrates well with the quick turnaround available when digital presses are used. See everything Color-Logic can do in PRINT 17 Booth 4813."
Richard Ainge, Color-Logic Chief Technical Officer added: The Color-Logic security process incorporates dynamic special metallic effects that vary as the printed piece is moved. In addition, using the Color-Logic software, subtle watermarks can be embedded within metallic areas of a package design. These watermarks might, for example, be used to produce a subliminal logo branding effect in the label or package background. More advanced designers may use the Color-Logic software to create extremely complex security features such as colored and gradated metallic guilloches, or invisible ink separations generated from photographic images. Regardless of which available techniques are used, the Color-Logic system can add shine and security to product packaging that is limited only by the designer's creativity."

West Chester, Ohio, USA; August 2017—At PRINT 17 in Chicago, Color-Logic--developer of the Process Metallic Color System--will show how printers can use conventional, digital, and hybrid printing presses to differentiate products for corporate and brand clients. "The world today is about brand," said Mark Geeves, Color-Logic Director of Sales and Marketing. Around the world, printers need strategies, technology, and marketing skills to help their brand clients differentiate themselves from competitors. In addition to demonstrating our easy-to-use software, at PRINT 17 Color-Logic will display physical samples showing what can be produced on the many and varied printing platforms we support."
Richard Ainge, Color-Logic Chief Technical Officer, added: "Color-Logic works diligently to develop technology relationships with press and printer manufacturers, substrate (paper, plastic, and foil) producers, coating companies, and RIP manufacturers around the world. Thus we are able to provide printers and converters with the most economical solutions and the fastest return on investment.

Color-Logic decorative effects are done at the design stage, which reduces manufacturing costs and time to market.

SAi Flexi software awarded global certification for Color-Logic’s Process Metallic Color System™ – Accreditation represents accelerated productivity, higher-quality output and reduced production costs for users
Salt Lake City, Utah, USA – SA International (SAi), the leading provider of software solutions for the professional sign making, wide-format digital printing and CAD/CAM for CNC machining industries, has announced that its industry-leading Flexi software has been fully certified by leading color communication systems manufacturer, Color-Logic, for use with its Process Metallic Color System™ for the wide format and sign markets.
As Color-Logic’s flagship product, Process Metallic Color System™ allows users to easily incorporate complex metallic colors into wide format prints. With the certification of SAi Flexi 11 and 12 for use with all metallic-capable inkjet printers, print providers can produce a host of applications, including posters, billboards and premium signage. This represents a haul of benefits, in particular the assurance of accelerated productivity, higher-quality output and reduced production costs by reducing mistakes.
“Typically, workflows are constrained to CMYK, making the preparation of a metallic job quite laborious,” explains Dean Derhak, Product Marketing Director at SAi. “Thanks to the partnership, customers can seamlessly allocate the metallic components early in the design phase using Process Metallic Color System™ with the confidence that Flexi will accurately output this to the printer.”
The more streamlined design-to-print process allows wide format print providers to dramatically reduce the time-consuming manual steps required, crucially accelerating their turnaround time.
Enhanced competitive edge through extended applications offering
In addition to an optimized workflow, the ability to offer premium metallic print applications enables companies to differentiate their signage and stand-out from the crowd.
“The capability to extend their business offering to include specialist, attention-grabbing prints enables print service providers to elevate existing projects to new heights and differentiate their service offering from the competition,” says Derhak. “In doing so, users strengthen their ability to retain existing clients as well as maintain their competitive edge.”
This latest certification by Color-Logic follows the recent accreditation of SAi’s Flexi and PhotoPrint RIP software with Color-Logic’s Touch7 extended colour gamut system.
SAi’s Flexi software is fully certified for Color-Logic’s Process Metallic Color System™

Color-Logic showcases unique method for variable data metallic print, available for HP Indigo Digital Presses
02/05/16 08:47
West Chester, Ohio, USA; April 2016—Color Logic, the leader in decorative and reflective color communications systems, has introduced a new method for efficient and flexible variable data printing in metallic colors on metallic substrates. The method leverages the combined capabilities of Color Logic’s Process Metallic Color System™ and HP Indigo Digital Presses, providing a unique advantage for HP Indigo users.
The demand for personalization and localization in packaging and labels continues to grow at a rapid rate, with brands needing to better address their target markets, increase the security of their products, and meet the growing demand for more SKUs.
A recently released movie by Color-Logic demonstrates how brands can leverage HP Indigo Digital Presses with white ink and the Color-Logic software to enhance their high-end packaging with personalized messages and versioning. The short clip shows how to add variable content to metallic text, metallic sequential numbering, and even metallic images, across a multitude of print applications.
“The innovation behind this world-first lies in Color-Logic’s unique way of generating white ink plates,” said Richard Ainge, Color-Logic’s CTO. “Previously, archaic methods of generating a white ink plate, such as with manual image processing and masking, meant that VDP could not be done in metallic, since each VDP element would require a unique white ink mask.
“In the past, a job with 10,000 VDP names to be added in would require 10,000 individual white ink masks. Now, with Color-Logic, those white ink masks are automatically generated in the RIP as the file is processed. This makes the whole process far more efficient and flexible, ensuring VDP content can be made metallic, in any one of the 250 metallic colors offered by our system.”
Gershon Alon, WW Manager, Workflow Solutions at HP Indigo, added: “HP Indigo white ink and CMYK, combined with the Color-Logic software on metallic or pearl substrates provide brands with the benefits of variable data printing, while conveying the luxury associated with metallic. This is a real differentiator in the world of digital print and is available with the use of HP Indigo and Color-Logic technology.”

Color-Logic Director of Sales and Marketing Mark Geeves also commented: "Printed sheets from the Xerox Color 1000i Press with the EFI Fiery DFE were shown to attendees at Graph Expo 2015 in Chicago, where the reaction to Color-Logic metallics was very positive. Color-Logic is pleased to work with Xerox and EFI to bring the Color-Logic process to printers eager to broaden their offerings."
Developed for brand managers, product managers, corporations and advertising agencies, the Process Metallic Color System gives licensees the ability to differentiate themselves and their clients from the competition by simplifying the design and print production process and implementing eye-catching decorative effects into their branded products and associated collateral. The optional metallic silver dry ink in the Xerox Color 1000i press, together with the Color-Logic software, turns standard designs into sparkling examples of metallics. The Color-Logic system is compatible with offset, inkjet, flexography, digital presses, screen printing, and gravure processes. It is ideal for packaging, pouches, direct mail, point-of-purchase material, signage, postcards, literature, booklets, labels, shrink sleeves, calendars and much more.
