Abstract

A method of coordinating the utilization of a color control system and a defect detection system on a printing press includes acquiring image data and processing the data by a comparison to template image data and the generation of color error data and print defect data. The method further includes the steps of selectively enabling and disabling the color control system and selectively enabling and disabling the defect detection system based upon the color error data and the print defect data.
