At the time that we purchased RIPit's OpenRIP® Flexo with KOOLKolor™
proofing, KoolToning™ halftone simulator and PerfectBLEND™ hybrid
screening, we had been looking for over a year at RIP / Workflow
solutions that would improve our turnaround time and quality.
We chose OpenRIP Flexo due to the fact that when we ran test on real
life “difficult” jobs, it gave us the best results. OpenRIP Flexo is versatile,
easy to use and offers smart features which automate production and
increase accuracy.
The RIP drives both our 54” color inkjet plotter and a 44.5” x 35.5”
imagesetter, plus... gives us the ability to see a monitor preview or
output an inkjet proof of ripped files so we can check die positions, fonts,
halftones and traps, even on our printed proofs. Once a file is approved,
the same exact file is then sent to the imagesetter.
RIPit's Service and Tech Support Departments are great! If we need them,
they are very quick and helpful. After having this RIP in place and
working for several months, it's hard to imagine how we ever got along
without it.
