About

Jonathan Read

Independent print technology consultant based in New Hampshire. I work with U.S. print teams, manufacturers and technology suppliers on site and remotely.

Background

Color science on the production floor.

I’ve spent more than 20 years in digital printing, working across industrial inkjet, wide-format graphics and textiles. I studied photography and color science at Rochester Institute of Technology. My work includes spectrophotometry, ICC profiling, substrate testing and production workflows using Caldera, ErgoSoft and ONYX.

My background also includes technical sales and OEM and reseller enablement. That experience helps when a project needs to work across production, support and the people deploying the technology.
