Norbert D’Souza, director of Access Print says, “More print buyers are asking for ISO compliant printed product so we felt it was important for our current and future customers to prove our ability to produce print and proofs to this standard.”

Access Print Solutions chose the ISO printer of Australia and New Zealand programme offered by colour specialist Kayell Australia. The audit included the evaluation of monitor calibration, lighting conditions, proofing, Ctp plate creation and finally a print run of 2000 impressions.

Luke Wooldridge, colour specialist at Kayell supervised the audit, he says, “The team at Access Print Solutions started moving towards an ISO based workflow last year. They already had most of the processes in place to print to the ISO standard and just needed a few pointers to match the standard.

“ISO certification is an ongoing process which is audited annually to ensure the processes required to maintain ISO quality are maintained.”

D’Souza believes the achievement will bring a number of benefits to his company. He says, “The ISO process has allowed us to quickly match our proofs and we have managed to reduce waste and increase productivity. Implementing the ISO workflow has had a positive on our organization, people and customer service.”
