This thesis attempt is to determine if there
is a widely applicable color build logic that
results in the least amount of variation in
package printing. Specific attention will be
given to 4C vs 7C build logic as well as no
GCR vs. maximum GCR logic. Total Area
Coverage (TAC) for each build will be
calculated as a measure of relative ink
consumption.
Inks act as levers on the color tint build.

1
Maximum GCR results in the least color variation.
2
A color build logic using 7C and Maximum GCR results
in the least color variation.
3
7C build logic results in the lowest ink consumption.
