New Checkr-Matte printing method
One of the features that distinguishes Spyder Checkr Photo is how they created the color target cards. Datacolor’s new process combines color-fast inks with museum quality paper stock to deliver exceptionally rich, ultra-matte colors and the deepest black for outstandingly accurate and true color calibration that will stand the test of time.
Datacolor’s commitment to color accuracy was key in every aspect of Spyder Checkr Photo’s development; from the selection of premium paper that conforms to ISO 9706 standards, meeting exacting requirements for age-resistance, to high-quality inks that offer long-lasting color integrity.
