Better for printing than fabric

My Capsure is approximately 50% accurate with Solid Uncoated Fanbook and completely inaccurate with colored jerseys. I spoke to Pantone tech support. They said that for fan books it should be 99% accurate. Sometimes some colors are rendered correctly. He's almost always wrong with pastels. Right now we're working with 4525 and 453, dark gold and greenish beige, and they're usually wrong. When I recalibrate it, the accuracy improves for a while.

Pros
  • An easy to understand color chart shows the difference between a standard and a sample.
Cons
  • Available in black only

It's not a spectrophotometer, it's just a PMS color matcher

If you're looking for a device that will easily match the PMS colors of your samples, this is probably the perfect option. The documentation says there are RGB, CMYK and LAB values. Well, something like that. But not really. What it does is match the closest PMS color and then give you the LAB values of the PMS color itself. It does not show the actual LAB values of the sample.

Pros
  • Create and store up to 20 references with the averaging feature for maximum accuracy.
Cons
  • Available in white only

I chose Pantone's CAPSURE Color Matcher tool to use with Color Bridge and I love it! I tried it out for the first time a few days ago - I placed my Kona Cotton Solids…
