Do not judge if you see a difference (you should see a difference between every target), you want to judge where you would “accept” the difference.

Your e-Factor is 7.

An E-Factor of 7 is representative of how many commodity-based printers and large “Web to Print” printers reproduce color. A blind audit of the top ten “Web to Print” printers in North America proved that 80% of them delivered E-Factor’s of 7 to 15. It is important to understand that if you must have a 7 E-Factor, you will need to speak with your printer and be very clear about your expectations. Most printers that print commodity work will not know what their E-Factor is, so be sure to clearly communicate your expectations in order for your requirements to be met.
