Press release submitted on behalf of Color-Logic

Color-Logic, the world leader in metallic color systems and print embellishments, has certified the ColorByte ImagePrint UV RIP for use with the Color-Logic metallic color system. The intuitive RIP integration and white ink linearization of the ColorByte RIP vastly simplifies the production of Color-Logic metallic colors and embellishments.

For the certification, ColorByte submitted the official Color-Logic test form, produced on a Fluid Color UV inkjet printer using white plus CMYK inks on metallic stock. Testing confirmed that all Color-Logic metallic colors, decorative effects, and embellishments printed correctly.

In addition to properly supporting Color-Logic embellishments, ColorByte has incorporated an intuitive Color-Logic interface directly into the ImagePrint UV RIP. This streamlined workflow eliminates the need for printers to perform special setup procedures or manually configure the RIP to print Color-Logic files. Operators simply bring the supplied PDF into the RIP and print.

The ColorByte ImagePrint UV RIP also offers white-ink linearization capabilities. Precise control of white ink is essential when printing Color-Logic files on metallic substrates because the white ink determines how much of the metallic surface is revealed or suppressed. The ColorByte linearization technology accurately and consistently reproduces Color-Logic metallic colors and effects across the entire tonal range of the file.

“ColorByte has done more than ensure that ImagePrint UV correctly supports Color-Logic embellishments,” said Mark Geeves, Director of Sales & Marketing. “The company has developed an intuitive interface that makes the production process exceptionally simple for printers. Its white-ink linearization capability also provides the control required to reproduce Color-Logic metallic colors and effects properly throughout the complete tonal range.”

Certification of the ColorByte ImagePrint UV RIP provides print service providers using compatible UV inkjet printers with a tested, straightforward workflow for producing premium metallic applications and print embellishments.
