Defines the transparency and colour to be produced by inks intended for four-colour coldset web offset printing when printed under specific conditions on a printability tester.

This part of ISO2846 specifies the colour and transparency to be produced by inks intended for four-colour coldset web offset printing when printed under specified conditions on a printability tester. It also describes the test method to ensure conformance.

This part of ISO2846 is not applicable to fluorescent inks and does not specify pigments (or spectral reflectance) so as not to preclude the use of future suitable pigment combinations and still claim compliance with its colorimetric requirements.
