What is the minimum delta E variation for the iGen, hardware-wise.
I know that delta E's don't tell much, but my point is to mention that you are not dealing with a very stable device as far as color consistecy goes to begin with... add uncontrolable variables from the off-set side (since you do not have them) and it will be, as mentioned before, literally a moving target.
You can try profiling the iGen and the off-set presses (you would need to have them run targets for you and either you profile an average of 20 targets or pick the one you want to "match").
Find out from Xerox of the iGen is capable of holding... Can you let me know? I am curious.
The thing here is to educate the market that once you move to POD you value proposition changes. Perfect color matching to off-sets should not be the goal for iGens or Nexpresses (maybe not even Indigos), they belong to a different market layer. The added value to POD is time to market, varibale data support, and lower break even as far as cost per unit... Can we sell this? Tough call...
