A new rotary gravure-offset printing unit is constructed by paralleling a gravure plate cylinder, a blanket cylinder and a impression roller. A Muti-Unit Gravure-Offset Printing Press(MUGOP) equipped with a series of the 3 printing units is utilized for roll-to-roll fine printing. Its core technology is precise over-piling printing of fine patterns. The severe problems of 'slurring' and 'doubling' in typical offset printing are unavoidable, which can be eliminated by applying a soft pad-type blanket cylinder and the unique 'true rolling' technique. Nip pressure between the blanket cylinder and the plate cylinder is measured by the constant pressure control system which equipped with load cells attached on the cylinders' axes. The running circumference of the blanket cylinder is increased to reach the same circumference of the plate cylinder as the pressure increasing, so that the specifications of the blanket cylinder is determined by the relationships of its shore hardness, diameter and nip pressure. When a softer blanket is used, a blanket cylinder of smaller diameter could give higher nip pressure. Realization of the true rolling technique on the MUGOP makes multilayer printing possible as well as fine printing in printed electronics.

Since domestic offset print quality control depends on the experience of persons in charge rather than objective data, the standards from the data are needed for the well-organized quality management of high-quality prints. Based on the ISO standards, now the standard specifications, such as GRACoL 7, SWOP 11, SNAP, G7 in America, and EURO Color, ECI, BVDM in Europe, and Japan Color 2001, Japan Color 2004 in Japan, are employed. There exists KS for domestic standards. However, since it has been directly imported from ISO Standards, there are discrepancies in printing materials and media. Although the quality management of commercial prints has been focused and studied. For this circumstance, standards are needed for the production of prints to meet international standards. This paper aims to find out suitable ways to approach domestic printing standards using densitometric method and colorimetric method. Printing experiments on this study were performed with domestic process color inks(Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black) and domestic coated papers, under the same conditions as the actual commercial printing processes. In densitometric method, how to set up the optimal solid print density was studied through three tests such as the ways to match solid print density and print contrast to GRACoL standards respectively, and the way to get the highest contrast. In colorimetric method, how to get solid print density with the minimum color difference between the $CIEL^*a^*b^*$ color specification values in GRACoL standards and the measured color specification values in prints, was studied.

For the color offset printing, it starts with input of data. The past days, drum scanner or flat scanner used to input of data, but now it changes gradually into using of digital camera because digital camera become popular. The high quality digital camera saves as a data(RAW format), sRGB which have built in digital camera, or Adobe RGB format. sRGB of ICC(International Color Consortium) profile is a standard color gamut of digital camera. Distribution of color gamut in sRGB is less than Adobe RGB have a distribution in ICC profile. sRGB also can not be expressed in some specific part, because distribution of color gamut in sRGB is not able to cover all parts in ICC Profile of international standards CMYK. It is more popular to use Adobe RGB than sRGB to do high quality offset printing and software basis color setting in Europe and Japan. In spite of this data basis, there is a difficulty of doing color correction between the color proofing prints and the final prints. To see how the software color setting effects to RGB data, this thesis will use Gretag Macbeth ColorChecker 24 patch which has the most general natural color chart to compare sRGB and Adobe RGB to check the differences of color changes. It will use the several factors that came out from the process of making ICC Profile to figure out the optimum In-house profile. It also compares the differences of using matt paper and glossy paper to do best quality color proof offset printing, and how the Rendering Intent effects the proof print.

Producing printing plate is essential progress to do offset printing. In this Film-less period, the more PS plate becomes extinct, the more the age of the Plate-Making of Exposure declines the place to stand. To do offset printing, the CTP (Computer to Plate) is taking a place of PS plate that covers speed, quality and economical problems. The biggest advantage of using CTP is that laser directly goes to the plate, thus there are no dust from the Plate-Making of Exposure. It is also theoretically able to print $200lpi{\sim}300lpi$ as well as print 1751pi, because it has over 2400dpi resolution. The high quality printing could be available inside of the country, if printing machine keeps the optimum condition in offset printing. The CTP has many advantages, however there is a difficulty for the operators to preserve the equipment. The actual circumstance is that they cannot make a decision about how many dots need to be generated, and also it is necessary to know how to establish the setup at RIP on CTP to make the optimum condition output. If offset printing machine keeps the optimum condition, it would be able to print up to high quality printing however it is hard to comment what is the optimum condition for the printing machine. Anyone could say easy subjectively that machine is in the optimum condition, however it is objectively hard to estimate by number. In this research GATF / Plate Test target used to analyze the image and to make numerical value of the optimum condition of the CTP. It also used GATF / The sheep fed test printing 5.0 to know the density of the color representation, dot gain and gray balance for the optimum condition of the print machine. The purpose of this research is to represent the ISO 12647-2 which is the international standard with domestic printing equipments.

Currently, environmental contaminants that can cause Aromatic types of hydrocarbons, less than 1% made of Aromatic Free kind of used products, soybean oil products with linseed oil with the products, rice products using a wide range of environmentally ecological ink since 2000 is released quickly. All materials used in printed material, if the green is the best way to print the composite materials in industrial applications, because each process on the print quality and productivity, there can be many differences in this experiment because it accounts for a large proportion in the print general ink in the ink section and the International color standards(ISO2846-1:2006) certified ecological ink were compared. Therefore, in this paper has the ink released from the same company, each common general ink and ecological ink in the same condition which results were focused on whether the emerging international color standard(ISO 2846-1:2006) recognized for environmentally ecological ink printed color reproduction of the actual offset(color reproduction) how conformity to ISO 12647-2 standard color on the basis of the offset would check Color Reproduction. Based on the results of the experiments of this study, given the ecological ink coated paper, uncoated paper both color difference and the gamut of the ISO 12647-2 standard is suitable for ecological ink, the ink's color gamut reproduction, even more than existing international standards, there is no confirmed that the correct color reproduction possible. Using environmentally ecological ink industries is expected to respond to environmental policy.

In printing, managing color means that how closely its color reproducts and printing supplier meets customers' requirements. When applying device profiles, it depends on properties of the devices. But color management of domestic digital prints is accomplished more scientifically and objectively than any other printing. According to this paper addresses a method of evaluating between proof prints and offset prints which are produced by identical date on the field. We evaluate two cases normal proof prints and domestic offset prints based on standardized color data analysis and subjective data analysis. We gathered objective data by measuring solid density, $CIEL^*a^*b^*$ and ${\Delta}E^{*_}{ab}$. Furthermore, we evaluated the offset prints and proof prints through human eyes to decide the ranking.

Because of high demand of color quality of the prints, proof prints are more important for end-user to predict and correct the final prints directly as an intermediate. Thus, proof prints can be used as a reference to take minimum ${\Delta}E^*ab$between the originals and finals in the field. The advantage of proof prints is to predict and correct color easily through the RIP(Raster Image Processor) without printing plates and plate making steps. While, it is thought that the proof systems are almost equivalent to the press in the past, present proof systems are more simple to take proof prints more easily due to the automation and digitalization. This paper addresses a method to perform an accurate profiling according to proof paper types and find optimal proof papers which meet proofing requirement. Although proof papers are matched with ISO 12647-7, we were trying to reduce ${\Delta}E^*ab$, In addition to the above, through the Gamut Mapping and Iteration, We were trying to find optimal proofing conditions.

탈묵 펄프는 자원재활용을 통한 환경 보존과 원가절감이 가능한 유용한 제지원료로 주로 신문용지와 화장지의 제조에 사용되고 있다. 국내에서는 신문고지의 상당 부분을 수입 에 의존하고 있으나 외국에서도 자국의 자원 및 환경보호를 위해서 재활용율을 증대시키기 위한 노력을 경주하고 있기 때문에 수입고지의 품질이 저하되고 있으며, 이는 다시 국내 신 문용지의 품질 악화로 이어지고 있다. 또한 환경문제가 세계적인 관심사로 부각됨에 따라 환경친화적인 탈묵 방법으로의 전환이 요구되고 있는 상황이다. 국내로 수입되는 신문고지 에는 오프셋 인쇄물 뿐만 아니라 플렉소 인쇄물이 포함되어 있다. 일반적으로 신문인쇄에 널리 쓰이는 오프셋 잉크는 기존의 알칼리 해리와 부유부상법에 의해 제거가 비교적 용이한 특정이 있으나, 플렉소 잉크는 친수성 안료로 구성되어 있어 알칼리 조건에서 탈묵할 경우 에 잉크 업자의 크기가 매우 작아져서 부상 탈묵에 의한 백색도 증가 효과가 크게 저하되는 문제점을 지니고 있다. 플렉소 인쇄물의 탈묵 개선을 위해 세척법이 효과적인 것으로 알려 져 있으나 국내에서는 설비 및 공정 상황으로 비추어 볼 때 불가능하다고 판단된다. 따라서 본 실험에서는 플렉소 고지가 함유된 신문고지의 탈묵 효율을 향상시키고 환경친화적 탈묵 기술을 접목시키기 위한 일환으로 중성 탈묵기술의 적용 가능성 및 이에 효과적인 탈묵제를 탐색하고자 하였다.이를 위해 본 실험에서는 일반적인 비이온성 계면활성제를 이용하여 알칼리 조건과 중성조건에서 탈묵을 실시하여 탈묵 효율을 비교하였다. 또, 플렉소 고지를 이용할 때 심각 한 문제점의 하나인 백수의 오염 정도를 탁도 COD 등으로 평가하였다. 그 결과 중성조건 과 알칼리 조건에서 수율은 큰 차이가 없었으며, 백색도는 중성 조건에서 탈묵한 경우에 약 1 1% 높았다. 백수의 탁도와 COD는 중성 탈묵을 실시할 경우가 알칼리 탈묵시보다 약 50% 감소하여 플렉소 고지의 탈묵에 비교적 효과적인 것으로 나타났으나, 플렉소 고지의 문제를 완전히 해결할 수는 없었다. 그래서 플렉소 고지의 중성 탈묵에 적합한 새로운 탈묵기술을 탐색하기 위하여 알킬 아민을 첨가하여 탈묵성을 조사하였다. 알킬 아민을 적용한 결과, 탈 묵 펄프의 백색도는 알칼리 탈묵에 비해 약 6% 증가하였으며, 백수의 탁도와 COD는 알칼 리 탈묵할 때 플렉소 고지를 첨가하기 전보다 낮아졌다. 탈묵 수율은 알킬 아민을 적용한 경우 최고 10% 정도 낮아지는 문제가 발생하였다. 그러나 부상탈묵에 의한 회분 제거율은 알칼리 탈묵에 비해 2배 이상 증가하는 결과를 얻을 수 있었으며 탈묵 펄프의 여수도가 7 70% 이상 개선되는 것으로 나타났다.
