1 Scope
This document specifies a test method for preparation of test prints produced with
liquid printing inks , either water-based, solvent-based or radiation cured printing inks as used in flexography and gravure printing. Such test prints are intended to be
used for reflection-based measurements, such as colorimetry and optical density as
well as for testing light fastness, and the resistance of printing inks to mechanical and chemical attack regarding either printing ink and/or substrate. This document is not applicable to inks for ink jet printing.
