What exactly are you printing and what press are you printing with?

If you could give a little more background on what equipment you're using and what result you need to achieve or what problems you are encountering I'm sure many here could give you some ideas.

3- Solna 125 "18x25" (1-Color)
4- Solna 225 "18x25" (2-Color)

Default Quality checking

First you need a densitometer - to check solid ink density, dot gains for the halftones or dot area.

SWOP- specifications for web offset printing - the solid ink densities are specified by this org. that includes dot gain and its grey balance. This is the specifications followed by US printers.

ISO coated - this is more stricter than SWOP. But this one has deeper color or better color gamut in a sense.
