Software With In-RIP Imposition For Digital Print
One Vision has introduced a new version of Speedflow Impose 2.2, its imposition software for commercial and digital print.
Plug Ink Save In will be on display for the first time during two industry events - America East in Hershey, PA, from March 13-14 (stand 17) and Nexpo in Orlando (both USA) on April 21 - 24 (stand 1867).
The product uses four-dimensional (4D) colour management techniques to reduce the amount of costly CMY ink required in the printing process and maximise the amount of less expensive black ink - without affecting image quality or appearance, it is claimed.
Plug Ink Save In's interface is claimed to facilitate parameter setting and adjustment without demanding third-party expertise.
In addition to ink cost reduction, users are claimed to benefit from enhanced printing quality and increased productivity, as set-up times can be reduced and fan out and web breaks can be avoided.
Siobhain Towell, vice president of marketing at One Vision,said: "We are excited to be putting advanced cost-cutting ink savings features in to the hands of printers and publishers with the introduction of Plug Ink Save In.
In building it, we took in to consideration the requirements of our customers, who cited the need for a customisable, yet flexible and straight-forward approach to ink management in their pre-press production processes." She added: "We strongly believe that we have accomplished these goals in developing Plug Ink Save In." Plug Ink Save In requires Asura 8.2 and Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition, Windows XP Professional, Service Pack 2, or Windows 2000 Professional or Server, Service Pack 4.
The software is designed to be compatible with most existing software from third-party vendors and pricing is based on configuration and individual requirements, said the company.
