Color Reference Cards are printed for agencies, printers, publishers, separators ...anyone who wants to control color reproduction quality!

Color Reference Cards

T-Reference Card


T-RefTM is a printed Standard Reference Material (SRM) for agencies, printers, publishers, separators ...anyone who wants to control color reproduction quality! T-RefTM consists of a printed sample of white, yellow, cyan, magenta, and black circular SWOP ink patches, with readings calibrated to the ANSI Status "T" response, and with calibration traceable to National Institute of Science and Technology primary references.

Enhanced T-Reference Card


Enhanced T-RefTM includes both Status "T" and Status "E" certified readings. Status "E" is the ANSI standard for European wideband transmission densitometer response. With the Enhanced T-RefTM you can use this SRM to check your transmission densitometers for both North America and European customers. Both T-RefTM and Enhanced T-RefTM consist of a laminated card packaged in a protective folder.

Custom X-Rite T-Reference Card


Custom X-Rite T-RefTM is a printed Standard Reference Material (SRM) for agencies, printers, publishers, separators ...anyone who wants to control color reproduction quality! The Custom X- Rite T-RefTM consists of a printed sample of white, yellow, cyan, magenta, and black square SWOP ink patches, with readings calibrated to the ANSI Status "T" response, and with calibration traceable to National Institute of Science and Technology primary references.

Lab Reference Card


Lab RefTM is designed to allow colorimeter, spectrophotometer, and hybrid color measurement device users to verify that their equipment can measure colors accurately in terms of CIE specified values. Subtle differences in the design, calibration, and operation of this equipment can lead to different units yielding different colorimetric values, even when measuring the same sample. In turn, the difference in these values can create uncertainty about the accuracy of any one unit as well as confusion in the communication of CIE data.
