G7: Standard Interpretation

After using the Print Standard Verifier tool to check if the printing process of your organization conforms with the G7 standard, the verification ends with a series of values that we will now explain.

G7® standards have their own checking targets. If you choose to verify several G7® standards, you will have to print and measure several targets in a row.
