## Who is this for?

| Role | Use case |
|---|---|
| **Print designers** | Convert between CMYK, RGB, HEX, and Lab without leaving your editor |
| **Prepress engineers** | Estimate ink costs, verify color accuracy (Delta E), analyze ICC profiles, run preflight checks |
| **Packaging teams** | Convert paper weights, separate spot vs process colors, cost entire print runs, simulate substrate shifts |
| **Brand managers** | Find the closest entry in your own color palette to any HEX or CMYK value |

## Install

```bash
pip install mcp-print
```

> Requires Python 3.10+. Zero external dependencies beyond the [MCP SDK](https://pypi.org/pro…
