e hue of the swatches is less important than inspecting the quality of `

white rectangles that should be present within each swatch.

e top four rows consist of your CMYK swatches, varying from 100% `

to 5% tint.

e CMY row indicates the tints produced using only the CMY `

channels.

e MY, CY, and CM rows each consist of only the two channels com- `

bined, which are then varied from 100% to 5% tint.

For the rows “MY+C” through “CM+K,” in each case there are the two `

channels combined, with the third varied from 100% to 5% tint.

e ﬁnal row, CMYK, indicates the tints produced using all four CMYK `

channels.

CADlink Tech Support. For a newer target, please refer to the

Proﬁle Test Chart.

e gradient bars along the bottom are a useful indica- `

tor of problems in grayscale gradient (should be uni-

form).

For the various images, there are many ﬁne details that `

can become blurred if there is not enough ink being laid

down.

Likewise, the image colors are used to conﬁrm that good `

saturated red, orange and yellow are being produced.
