IDEAlliance Expands Certification Program

IDEAlliance, Alexandria, Va., the certifier of systems, skills, materials and facilities in media production, has announced the addition of wide-format inkjet printing systems to its programs of system validation and certification.

The IDEAlliance Wide/Grand Format Inkjet System Certification Program certifies original equipment manufacturers' roll-fed and flatbed large-format printing systems to established tolerances for quality and efficiency. Systems are evaluated for printing, production and application qualities for a specific ink-and-media combination. Results of the program inform prospective and current large-format users on which systems meet their production and market needs, as well as how to achieve consistent quality from their printing systems.
