You can do it ALL - from the ONE PRINTER! |

Print directly from your favourite Graphics program.
MultiRIP will work with any graphics artwork program (ie. CorelDraw, PhotoShop, Illustrator ...even Word) that you can print from. MultiRIP will install an independent driver that allows your settings in your graphics program (ie. the size, shape and angle of your halftones) to print directly through the RIP software.

Halftone Screening.
MultiRIP allows the use of halftone screening, thus turning your inkjet printer into a low-cost imagesetter. You can specify the screen frequency/angle at print time or you can select from one of our pre-defined screen ruling sets. MultiRIP comes with custom density curves for eight different types of film positive media.

Page Previewing. You can preview individual pages in both the output queue and the "processed jobs" queue. This can save a lot of time if a mistake is caught before expensive media (and time) is wasted. |

Job / Page Priority.
Allows users to change print priority on a per-job and per-page basis. When manually inserting jobs in the RIP or re-printing jobs that have been ripped; simply use the slide-bar to set values from 1 to 99 (just like Window's Print Manager) or enter the number by hand. The job or page will then assume it's new print priority. When printing from applications (Quark, PageMaker etc.) select the priority in the print settings dialog. |
............................................................................. |
Re-Print Pages without Re-Ripping.
Allows you to re-print individual pages or colours from a separation with a few simple clicks of your mouse. Once the job has been processed, simply open the job item in the queue, select the pages you wish to re-send to the printer. Select the number of copies and click "Print Selected Pages". THe selected pages will be sent to the output queue. When making multiple copies, the pages can be "stacked" (1,1,1,2,2,2,3,3,3 etc) or collated (1,2,3,1,2,3, etc)

ICM/ICC Based Colour Management.
Supports the use of ICC and ICMs for colour management. The user can select the colour space of the input CMYK and RGB as well as the out ICM if they desire. All media types included with MultiRIP have been pre-linearized and the manual selection of an output profile is seldom needed. If the user has created a custom output file, however, MultiRIP uses it per request. You can select the ICC/ICMs at print-time or right at the RIP control panel when manually inserting PostScript or PDF files or re-processing previous jobs. A utility is included in the software which alls you to add ICM name entries into your PPD so that they appear at print-time in the print configuration dialog. |

Print Composite Proofs from Pre-separted PostScript Files. MultiRIP allows you to print composite pages from PostScript separation files. This feature is very useful, as you can use the composite output to check for trapping and moire, you simply use it as a proof to show the customer. If using halftone screening for output, you can select the angle and frequency for CMYK and spot colours. |

|
Print Separations from Composite PostScript or PDF files.
MultiRIP allows you to print CMYK separations from a composite PostScript files or PDF files. If using halftone screening for output, you can specify the angle and frequency for the CMYK separations.
|
............................................................................. |
Density Calibration. MultiRIP includes the Q-Curve™ utility which will allow you to apply a density curve to your composite or separated job. You can curve the colour plates individually or apply the same curve to all. You can use the graphical curve interface or enter the desired density numbers. |
