The problem

Neon greens and electric blues look great on screen but ink can't print them, and near-black shadows block up. Blender has no CMYK.

The fix

Print Prep Pack fixes colours at the source, in your materials. Hue and lightness stay the same; only the over-saturated part is toned down.

Features

• Check Colours: lists out-of-gamut and crushed-shadow colours in all, selected or the active material
• Make Print-Safe: pulls flagged colours just inside the printable range; textures and links untouched
• Revert: every original colour is stored
• Print-safe 39-colour palette and shader node group
• Paper presets: coated, uncoated, newsprint, photo inkjet
• Principled Base Color, Diffuse, Subsurface and RGB nodes

Who it's for

Blender users preparing models or renders for print.
