Use Fiery Verify Assistant

You can start Fiery Verify Assistant from Command WorkStation when Fiery Color Profiler Suite version 5.1 or later is installed on the same system as Command WorkStation 6.3 or later. You do not access Fiery Verify Assistant from the main window of Fiery Color Profiler Suite.

  1. In Command WorkStation, connect to the Fiery server for which you want to test the color precision of a job.
  2. Select a printed or held job that has the print settings that you want to evaluate, and do one of the following:
    • Click Actions > Color Verification.
    • Right-click on a job and select Color Verification from the menu.

    Make sure to select only one job. Fiery Verify Assistant cannot be started if multiple jobs are selected.

    Fiery Verify Assistant starts in a separate window.

    Note: The Command WorkStation window is not updated while Fiery Verify Assistant is running. You must exit Fiery Verify Assistant to continue using Command WorkStation.
  3. Select a Verification preset and click Next.

    Verification presets specify the reference color space and the tolerances for the verification test. Pick the preset for your preferred CMYK reference (such as Fogra, GRACoL or CRPC) and the tolerance setting.

    For digital print production, the recommended tolerance is ISO 12647-8 "chart". If you want to create your own Verification preset, click Edit.

  4. Select the measurement instrument and specify warmup pages if desired, and click Print.

    Warmup pages are beneficial if the printer has not been used for a period of time.

    Click Settings to the right of the instrument selection to configure spectrophotometer settings such as Measurement mode.

  5. Retrieve the pages from the printer and follow the on-screen instructions to measure the page. (Discard any warmup pages.)
  6. When you are done measuring, click Next to view the results.

    Fiery Verify displays the results including passed or not passed status, and a summary of the verification settings.

    Click View Detail to view a detailed report. Fiery Verify displays the reference values compared with the measured values and indicates pass or fail for each value. To record the results, you can print a report or a label.

    Click Print Report to create a detailed report in PDF format.

    Click Print Label to print a certification label that can be applied to a print or proof.
