Free Try-Before-Buy Workflow's RIP Options
Polkadots Software Inc, a pre-press workflow developer specialising in database driven workflow automation for the Harlequin RIP has released the latest version of Rasterize-it 6.4.
The Techno.lab and Canon system creates a formidable proofing system for high end colour.
The first installations have been a great success and we are looking forward to gaining a significant market share.
Any user requiring critical repeatable colour should not buy a proofing system until they have seen Techno.lab." Mark Keeley of Velmex said: "As UK distributor for Canon large format printers we have had significant success within the high quality photographic, fine art and business graphics markets.
The Canon printers offer super high quality output at speeds many times greater than other similar devices.
It was a natural decision to extend our system-based range to the proofing market where high quality, consistent colour is required." He added: "After looking at many software options it became clear that Techno.lab has all the features, quality and stability that we were looking for.
The quality of the software is confirmed by the number of installations recently within the European wide proofing sector and putting this with Canon's award winning MircoFine technology gives us a superb all round proofing system." The standard system includes the Canon w6400 or w8400 printer, Techno.lab proofing RIP software, Profile generation software, proof certification software and a spectrophotometer.
Siliconcrag said that the tools allow clients to make their own profiles and have total control of their colour and keep it in tolerance at any time.
Softproofing to PDF, JPEG is a standard feature with all systems, therefore clients can approve their Ripped proofs via the internet prior to print, added the company.
The full system is available for demonstration at Velmex Distribution's London showroom.
