How to avoid it: Start evaluating applications with an eye toward the right color technology rather than relying on what type of equipment is currently installed.
In the first scenario, a processor gives little thought to the sizing and type of equipment that will be needed for a given application and color technology.
This thinking limits the ability to apply the best color technology for each application, which in turn can affect quality and competitive ability.
