GMG ColorServer: Fully Automated Conversion to Any Output Color Space
Varying printing conditions, substrates and printing standards across different locations can make it challenging to maintain a consistent brand appearance.
This is why automated, accurate color conversion is essential. GMG ColorServer uses GMG's industry-leading MX technology to automatically convert RGB, CMYK and mixed data into industry-standard or customized output color spaces.
GMG ColorServer delivers press-ready data in no time, providing reliable color consistency throughout the production chain. Its advanced color management technology is designed to optimize print data for different printing conditions while maintaining the intended color appearance.
Save Ink with GMG InkOptimizer
GMG InkOptimizer can reduce ink consumption by up to 20%, depending on the printing process and substrate.
By increasing the proportion of black while reducing CMY components in the separation, GMG InkOptimizer applies advanced UCR/GCR strategies while retaining the intended color appearance. This form of under color removal helps stabilize gray balance and optimize the overall printing process.
The result is a more stable print run, improved drying and run performance, and higher print quality — at lower production costs.
Visibly Better: GMG's MX Technology
With GMG ColorServer, your data is ready to print in no time.
GMG's MX technology, integrated into GMG ColorServer, provides high-end color space conversion for reproducible print results. The technology preserves the black channel, stabilizes sensitive color areas and delivers exceptional shadow detail.
The result is consistent colors, smooth gradients, high image quality and excellent detail in the shadows — providing visibly superior results compared with conventional color conversion solutions.
GMG's color conversion technology is designed to maintain the integrity of the original data while optimizing it for the target printing condition. This makes it possible to achieve a consistent color appearance across different printing processes and substrates.
Your Digital Printing Assistant — GMG SmartProfiler
GMG SmartProfiler is an integral part of GMG ColorServer Digital, providing an intuitive, step-by-step workflow for calibrating, recalibrating and profiling digital and large-format printing systems.
With GMG SmartProfiler, users can create profiles for specific printer–medium combinations quickly and easily, without requiring extensive color management expertise.
The system guides users through the profiling process, including the printing and measurement of test charts. Once the process is completed, GMG SmartProfiler automatically creates the required color profiles and resources and publishes them to GMG ColorServer.
Input documents can then be dropped into the corresponding hotfolder, and GMG ColorServer automatically optimizes them for the profiled printer–medium combination.
Reliable Control — Even Under the Most Challenging Printing Conditions
Changing substrates, printing parameters or the use of spot colors can require customized color conversions.
GMG ColorServer provides a flexible solution for these requirements. When combined with GMG OpenColor, customized printing conditions and spot-color definitions can be integrated into GMG ColorServer, enabling reliable and seamless color conversion for complex production environments.
GMG OpenColor can provide the color profiles and spot-color libraries required by GMG ColorServer, allowing the system to optimize input data for the specific target printing process, substrate and ink configuration.
This is particularly valuable in packaging production, where different substrates, printing processes, special colors and customized printing conditions are common.
Automation and Performance
GMG ColorServer simplifies and automates prepress color management.
Its client-server architecture automatically distributes the processing load, enabling high throughput and reliable processing even when handling large amounts of data. Multiple clients can access the central server, while automated hotfolder processing allows jobs to be processed with minimal manual intervention.
GMG ColorServer can also be seamlessly integrated into third-party workflow systems. API, REST API and XML-based job ticket hotfolders provide flexible options for integrating color management into existing production workflows. Supported workflow environments include systems such as Esko, DALIM and Enfocus.
The result is a faster, more automated and reliable prepress workflow — from incoming print data to press-ready files.
GMG ColorServer — Automated Color Management from Input to Output
From RGB, CMYK and mixed data to the final output color space, GMG ColorServer automates the entire color conversion process while maintaining color accuracy, black-channel integrity and consistent appearance.
Combined with GMG OpenColor and GMG SmartProfiler, it provides a complete color management workflow for conventional, digital and multicolor printing — helping transform complex color conversion into a reliable, repeatable and automated production process.
