Netherlands-based Color Concepts, software developer for the large format inkjet printing industry, has introduced ColorBase.com – a free collection of print profiles for large format print.

 “At the heart of this platform is ColorBase’s searchable, centralized collection of print profiles for the Large Format Print Industry,” Color Concepts said. 

“Profiles (encoded sets of print parameters that ensure optimal print results for a particular combination of material, ink, printer, RIP software, and print mode) are typically only available via material/printer manufacturers, meaning that print shops and converters currently juggle a variety of profile sources in their day-to-day work.”

       "Simply unprecedented":
  André Venter of Color Concepts

André Venter, ColorBase.com product manager and development lead, said: “ColorBase.com’s Profile Search tool is simply unprecedented. By building a powerful, sophisticated, and centralized profile library, we are creating an unmatched level of convenience for print and sign shops. For the first time ever, these users can find the profiles they need on a single platform - all for free.”

ColorBase.com offers the largest collection of publicly available print profiles ever assembled, the company said. Print shops can currently browse more than a million profiles across a total of 3400 print media on the ColorBase platform.

Alongside its profile library, ColorBase.com also has a growing collection of product videos and tutorials, and is the home of Let’s Talk, the Color Concepts’ industry talk show hosted by CEO Marco Roos.

"Access to these tools and videos are absolutely free, and always will be," Color Concepts said.

“This is just the beginning. The colour and material information contained within ColorBase’s impressive profile library is incredibly powerful and versatile. On this foundation of ‘structured data’, Color Concepts is building an entire suite of both free and premium tools that print shops can use to optimize their print performance. Upcoming features offered on ColorBase.com include an ICC Creator that users will be able to operate directly in their browser, and E-Learning functionality so that anyone in the industry can work through courses and improve their skills. In short, ColorBase.com members have a lot to look forward to.”

Registration and membership are free to all.
