WASATCH COLORIP UPGRADE

BREATHE NEW LIFE INTO YOUR ROLAND PRO II



Roland devices are well known for quality and durability. When you tune up your PRO II device with Wasatch, the profits from your original Roland hardware investment continue to grow.

Compatibility for today and tomorrow
Install your upgrade on any computer using Microsoft 2000, XP, or Vista. Now you can print more file formats including the latest Adobe CS3 file types.

The Colorip Upgrade combines your existing drivers with the full SoftRIP package. As the graphics industry standards continue to evolve, you will always have the ability to upgrade your software and maintain compatibility.

Premium Color Using 16-Bit Rendering
Colorip had only an 8-bit color pipeline. SoftRIP's 16-bit color rendering produces output that is truly faithful to the original source image. Color subtleties and gradients in raster images are maintained with enormous detail. Vector gradients are perfectly smooth at any output size. The difference is particularly dynamic when printing with lower quality consumables.

The Wasatch Colorip Upgrade is fully compatible with your current Colorip the imaging configurations. In many cases, SoftRIP will actually produce better quality results purely by using your existing profile with the 16-bit color pipeline.

Familiar Colorip interface with new direct-to-layout tool
SoftRIP lets you choose between the traditional Colorip workflow and the new more efficient alternatives. Direct-to-Layout uses the full width of your media as a digital canvas. Drag-and-drop images into the layout window from the integrated file browser and prepare them to print as a part of your overall print run. Resize, rotate, mirror, add/remove copies, and nest images without leaving the layout view.

Layout Before RIP for Nesting with Auto-Rotation
SoftRIP's Smart Nesting tools create efficient layouts automatically, whether you prepare your images directly in the layout window or hold single jobs to arrange later. Smart Nesting™ with auto-rotation changes image orientation to effortlessly maximize media savings. Wasatch RIPs each image individually so you don’t have to reprocess jobs to use them in new layouts. Create blended layouts later by nesting new images together with pre-RIP'd files from your print queue.

Streamlined Interface
Since the last release of Colorip, Wasatch has flattened the SoftRIP interface so the most powerful screens are now the easiest to get to. The Queues Manager has become a tab on main screen for easy access, with instant updates as jobs are processed. Settings unit options such as nesting gab and hold for layout have also moved to the main screen.

More Than Just Hotfolders
SoftRIP's power isn't limited to the RIP station. Any PC or Mac on your network can use SoftRIP to print using a regular web browser. SoftRIP's server tools are simple to setup on networked workstations and even easier to use.
