Quality is not derived by tests, trials and experiments. It is derived by people with a will to identify them. We have the resource and research going hand in hand.
Print quality is not quantitative in relation to inks. It varies from place to place, printer to printer and time to time. Printing inks has no all-risk insurance and at best, quality tests just allude to the performance - actually guarantee nothing.
In general, inks are exacting and tailor-made. Therefore, what quality means to us is a resultant of step-by-step workings
