The enhancement enables operators of Esko RIP's driving CDI output devices to accurately proof jobs before printing, which Hamillroad claims will help reduce errors and save time.
The update profiles the monitor, spectrally profiles the press then uses both to adjust the one-bit digital data being viewed. The process takes a previously printed job and measures a small number of colours from the job's colour bar, which is cheaper and quicker than using a special test chart.
The software, which costs £1,000, features a gamut check tool so users can instantly see which areas of a job are out of gamut for the monitor being used.
Andy Cave, chief executive of Hamillroad Software, said the Esko RIP support would attract a "wider audience", especially in the packaging and label markets "where the software's power and range of tools available are a natural fit".
