9、 Color Description:

1. Printing colors cannot be requested based on the color of the screen or print. When filling colors, do not use spot colors. When making, be sure to refer to the% of CMYK color values for filling colors. Otherwise, color differences caused will not be returned.

2. When the same file is printed in different times, there may be slight differences in color, such as coffee, dark green, deep purple, etc., which are more prone to color cast problems and are normal.

3. Do not use four colors of C: 100, M: 100, Y: 100, K: 100 for black text. Large color blocks with a total color value of more than 250% can easily cause back printing (sticking) during printing.
