This paper reports the development of an automatic system for mixing offset printing ink. The ink mixing process is important in industrial fields where paint and ink are used. In particular, there is a demand for automating the process of producing spot colors, which involves mixing a small quantity of high-viscosity ink. The authors designed, fabricated, and experimentally tested an automatic mixing system that employs the revolution and rotation of ink and the transmission by belts. The performance of the ink mixing system was verified by conducting numerous experiments to determine the effect of rotation direction, speed, ink container axis angle, and ink amount. Conditions suitable for mixing offset ink are presented for use as guidelines for producing spot colors.

The general commercial printing meets the customer's diverse demand by using spot color besides process four color. Especially, by using spot color for printing the enterprise's logo or specific color, we can see the effect of printing is getting better. The objective of this study was to examine the quality of spot color reproduction with Inkjet for 2 types of paper and Dye sublimation in ICC-based color management system. ICC profiles were generated for each device using ECI 2002 visual target and evaluated for the accuracy of each printer's color profile. The test chart consisting of Pantone color 1140 was selected to test the quality of spot color reproduction.

Recently, the trend in the printing industry includes shorter run lengths and with fast turnaround times. As new markets have made it possible to produce small quantities of high-quality color products at affordable price, the general commercial printing meets the customer's diverse demand by using spot color besides process four colors. Especially, by using spot color for printing the enterprise's logo or specific color, we can see the effect of printing is getting better. With the combination of the right software, ink, media, and device can be treated as a digital proofer for spot color printing, providing significant time and cost savings compared to conventional procedures. The objective of this study is to investigate the quality of spot color proofs printed by ink-jet and dye sublimation proofer using ICC-based color management system. An Epson Stylus Color 3000 ink-jet proofer combined with Best Color Proof XXL RIP was tested for glossy and matte paper. 3M Rainbow dye sublimation proofer was examined using 3M Rainbow controller ver. 4.1 RIP on the manufacturer recommended proofing paper. ICC profiles were generated for each device using ECI 2002 visual target and evaluated for the accuracy of process 4 color reproduction. The test charts consisting of Pantone color 1140 was selected to test the quality of spot color reproduction.

To evaluate the quality of commercial dehydrated tea-products, the relationships between particle sizes, densities, moisture absorption & desorption and color appearance were studied by using Hunter-lab tristimulus colorimeter and spectrophotometer. Among the tea-products was held no significant relation between particle sizes and color appearance but red ginseng extract powder (RGEP) was included L, a and b values when was reduced particle size. appearance color of tea-products indicated red-orange color, L, a and b values were ranged 32.7 to 48.0, 4.0 to 10.0 and 5.6 to 18.0, respectively, densities of tea-products ranged 0.232 to 0.898 g/ml and increased L values, Hunter's a/b ratio values was included in 0.61 to 0.90. Color stability in this products was well agreed with decrease of total color difference value ($\Delta$E) and chromaticity difference value ($\Delta$C) of the Hunter-lab color data.

The color image of the brand comes first and is an important visual element that leads consumers to the consumption of the product. To express more effectively what the brand wants to convey through design, the printing market is striving to print accurate colors that match the intention. In 'offset printing' mainly used in printing, colors are often printed in CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Key) colors. However, it is possible to print more accurate colors by making ink of the desired color instead of dotting CMYK colors. The resulting ink is called 'spot color' ink. Spot color ink is manufactured by repeating the process of mixing the existing inks. In this repetition of trial and error, the manufacturing cost of ink increases, resulting in economic loss, and environmental pollution is caused by wasted inks. In this study, a deep learning algorithm to predict printed spot colors was designed to solve this problem. The algorithm uses a single DNN (Deep Neural Network) model to predict printed spot colors based on the information of the paper and the proportions of inks to mix. More than 8,000 spot color ink data were used for learning, and all color was quantified by dividing the visible light wavelength range into 31 sections and the reflectance for each section. The proposed algorithm predicted more than 80% of spot color inks as very similar colors. The average value of the calculated difference between the actual color and the predicted color through 'Delta E' provided by CIE is 5.29. It is known that when Delta E is less than 10, it is difficult to distinguish the difference in printed color with the naked eye. The algorithm of this study has a more accurate prediction ability than previous studies, and it can be added flexibly even when new inks are added. This can be usefully used in real industrial sites, and it will reduce the attempts of the operator by checking the color of ink in a virtual environment. This will reduce the manufacturing cost of spot color inks and lead to improved working conditions for workers. In addition, it is expected to contribute to solving the environmental pollution problem by reducing unnecessarily wasted ink.
