PrintFactory V6 Production - Wide Driver for HP Latex R1000 - Annual Subscription
PrintFactory is a unique production RIP that offers time-saving features that help:
- Control Color: Device Link Profiling removes room for error by doing CMYK to CMYK conversions.
- Lower Ink Costs: Gain more control over the black channel to improve neutral tones. The software offers true rendition of color that allows you to save up to 20% in ink costs while maintaining a low delta e difference.
- Smartly Prep Jobs: PrintFactory Editor is Rip agnostic and works with Windows, macOS, and Linux. Editor is also a powerful design package allowing you to adjust fonts, typos, and sizing errors. It works with PDFs, PSDs, TIFFs, JPGs, EPS, and AI file types.
- Waste Less Media and Speed up File Processing: Most RIPS amend your existing file with new data for layouts, etc. PrintFactory doesn’t move PDFs or create them. Instead it makes XML instructions for file handling. This increases processing efficiency and reduces wasted layout instructions that might add to the overall print size when creating bleeds, etc.
PrintFactory is a versatile and scalable print software that enables job preparation to take place where it’s most convenient, eliminates the need for users to be tied to a single RIP, and prevents bottlenecks caused by last-minute changes. PrintFactory is an independent software developed by printers who understand the importance of improving workflows and color management. With support for over 3500 devices, it seamlessly integrates with external systems, enabling two-way communication and providing valuable feedback.

ENFORCE RECALIBRATION SCHEDULES
PrintFactory Calibrator with VISU™ allows for the iteration of existing Print Media Modes (PMM) to compensate for minor changes in the environment. Recalibration is done by comparing a patch of 532 colors in the new environment to previous measurements stored in the Calibrator. The process is step by step and uses a photo-spectrometer to quantify the difference using ‘CIE LAB DeltaE’ measurement.
This ensures ongoing accuracy across your production site.
