🛠️ What is Make-Ready?

Make-ready refers to the sheets used to set up the press before the actual print run begins. These are necessary for:

• Color matching

• Registration alignment

• Ensuring proper print quality

Make-ready sheets are not part of the final job, but they are consumed in the printing process — especially when running multiple jobs or versions.
