Our Mission

To advocate offset printing as viable media through analytical process control, CIM, project management, capital goods procurement, education, and adherence to the current industry standards (CIP4/JDF, CIE l*a*b*, ICC Profiling, GRACol, SWOP).

Color Statement

Paradigm Graphic Arts Consulting, Inc. believes that the printing press should be considered an automated, predictable, calibrated output device in a color-managed, digital workflow.  To that end, we believe and endorse the shift toward CIE L*a*b* for color measurement and press control.

FFundamentally print buyers don’t care about make-ready waste. uPrint buyers do care about executing on their customers' demands of faithful quality reproduction of  advertisements, merchandise, and proofs. 

IIf you are in the business of communicating color…which all printers are…it is paramount that your internal and external communication of color are in a form that is universally recognized within the industry.  To that end, we also advocate the use of CIM tools like CIP4/JDF, for process control.
