Achieving consistent color quality is a critical aspect of the printing industry, as it directly affects the final product's accuracy and appeal. In this study, we introduce a comprehensive approach to ensuring color quality in the proofing process. We propose a three-step approach to quality-managed proofing, consisting of calibration, proofer verification, and proof verification. Our approach emphasizes the importance of controlling the proofer and maintaining the standard condition throughout the entire proofing process. By implementing this three-step process, industry professionals can effectively manage color quality, leading to more accurate and reliable printed products. Our discussion and conclusion sections further explore the unique aspects of each stage and the practical implications of our proposed approach. Future research may investigate the application of quality-managed proofing to various printing technologies and its potential impact on overall print industry standards. © 2023 IEEE.
