Ricoh releases neon Touch7 Colour Guides

Ricoh launches the world’s first neon Touch7 Colour Guides.

The four digital neon Touch7 Colour Guides enable the consistent reproduction of 1,520 colours when running neon pink and neon yellow toners on the five colour Ricoh Pro C7200X digital colour sheetfed press.

Richard Ainge, founder and CTO of Touch7, said, “Every colour in these world-first digital neon colour guides uses a neon toner to produce bright, vibrant, punchy results and extend the gamut of the Ricoh press. They range from deep saturated red colours, violets and blues to subtle pastel shades. Their creation as a fifth colour file is simple and logical.”

Eef de Ridder, vice-president, Graphic Communications Group, Ricoh Europe, said, “Colour guides have long been associated with Pantone but its neon and pastel colour guides are not suited to digital production. The Touch7 guides feature 1,520 digital colours and there is no need to mix spot colours or inks, which can result in inaccuracy, waste and additional costs. The guides allow the effortless and highly affordable creation of visually stunning and captivating printed results. They support inspiring design and engaging print that prompts a reaction.”
