Pixel perfect - working with CMYK & RGB - A comparison of printed samples (2008)
Presentation / Conference
Parraman, C., Laidler, P., & Wang, Y. (2008, October). Pixel perfect - working with CMYK & RGB - A comparison of printed samples. Presented at 'New Ways to use Print Technology ...On Paper', University of the West of England, Bristol

This workshop compared different pre-printed samples on a range of fine art materials, which range from Japanese papers to fine art canvas. These samples demonstrate a very broad range of surface qualities and differences in the gamut of the printed...

Specifying colour and maintaining colour accuracy for 3D printing (2008)
Journal Article
Parraman, C., Walters, P., Huson, D., & Reid, B. (2008). Specifying colour and maintaining colour accuracy for 3D printing. Proceedings of SPIE, 6805, https://doi.org/10.1117/12.766540

Advances in rapid prototyping technologies have led to the emergence of three-dimensional printers which can fabricate physical artefacts, including the application of surface colours. In light of these developments, this paper asserts that the need... Read More about Specifying colour and maintaining colour accuracy for 3D printing.
