WhatPackaging? (WP): What does Tec4Check software do?
Vishnuu R Kamat (VRK): MediaCheck systems provide its client-server architecture with a largely automatic, pixel-based comparison in the RGB colour space between a PDF-to-PDF file in the pre-press and the print (leaflet, folding carton, label or any printed sheet) to a PDF file on the shop floor.
WP: Perks on the shop floor?
VRK: The system automatically identifies differences between reference and sample wherein each deviation found is displayed on the screen and can be edited by the operator. All the interactions on the part of the operator associated with a job can be found in the automatically generated test report.
Documented interactions and information include status and comments of a deviation, test and reference parameters, operator name and time stamp of individual actions.
Due to its high degree of automation (fully automatic up location and identification independent of the rotational position at multiples of 90-degrees), capitalising on modern processor technology and highly efficient test algorithms it calculates an optimal test result within a very short time.
The resolution used by the workflow system is selectable between 300-, 400- and 600-dpi and can be optimally adapted to the test conditions and stored in separate parameter sets.
WP: Intergable options?
VRK:The system can be extended with further modules for example braille decoding and measurement, print-to-print, and 2D codes.
WP: When was it launched/announced?
VRK:The print inspection software was launched in 2008, 15 years ago. And, its updates are introduced yearly.
WP: What is the target market?

WP: What’s the USP?
VRK:A 21CFR-compliant software, MediaCheck software workflow version provides a unique client-server architecture making it easy to validate and administrate at a lesser investment.
