Description
Colour difference in ∆E76 between the measured and the reference
substrate white. For a side-by-side evaluation, the colour control
strip must be printed with the rendering intent absolute colorimetric.
The reference substrate white is compared to the measured simula-
ted substrate white of the printed media.
Highest colour difference in ∆E76 between the measured Lab values
of the colour patches on the colour control strip and the Lab values
of the matching patches of the reference printing condition.
Average colour difference in ∆E76 between the measured Lab values
of the colour patches on the colour control strip and the Lab values
of the matching patches of the reference printing condition.
The 95th percentile ∆E76 colour difference between the measured
Lab values of the colour patches on the colour control strip and the
Lab values of the matching patches of the reference printing condi-
tion. This means that 95% of all measured patches have ∆E76 colour
differences smaller than or equal to the metric value.
Highest colour difference in ∆E76 between the measured Lab values
of the CMYK solid patches on the colour control strip and the Lab
values of the matching patches of the reference printing condition.
Highest colour difference in ∆E76 between the measured Lab values
of the CMY solid patches on the colour control strip and the Lab val-
ues of the matching patches of the reference printing condition.
Highest colour difference in ∆E76 between the measured Lab values
of the RGB overprint patches on the colour control strip and the Lab
values of the matching patches of the reference printing condition.

the CMYK solid patches on the colour control strip and the Lab val-
ues of the matching patches of the reference printing condition.
Highest colour difference in ∆H between the measured Lab values of
the CMYK solid patches and the RGB overprint patches on the colour
control strip and the Lab values of the matching patches of the refer-
ence printing condition.
Highest colour difference in ∆H between the measured Lab values of
the CMY solid patches and the RGB overprint patches on the colour
control strip and the Lab values of the matching patches of the refer-
ence printing condition.
