Get Consistent Output Across Devices with Printer Color Matching
For users with multiple Roland DG printers of the same model and ink type*, VersaWorks 6 offers printer color matching to ensure consistent color output on every print. Print and scan values from a printer and transfer the color values to matching Roland DG devices to compensate for color differences from one device to the next.
This new color matching feature gives print users the distinct advantage of printing large-scale jobs, high quantity jobs and recurring customer jobs on multiple devices.
Special Colour Plate Generation
Users can attribute Gloss, White or Primer ink to areas of a design in the actual RIP, prior to printing. This is a convenient tool when working with EPS or PDF files that don’t have spot color attribution. By recognizing the pixel data, VersaWorks 6 can fill the entire image or generate fills inside or outside of the print area.
Maintaining Clipped Position
Add Cut Lines Directly in the RIP with New Cutting Line Feature
Create cut data directly in VersaWorks 6 by extracting PDF data from your design file to use as a cut line. This smart new RIP tool offers intuitive new cut line features to make print output even easier.
Predictive Ink Calculator for Unattended Printing
A predictive ink calculator estimates the amount of ink needed for each job, enabling unattended printing. When there is not enough ink to complete a print job, VersaWorks 6 will notify you before printing.
