Wasatch Computer Technology, Salt Lake City, a developer of RIP and print management software, in a partnership with wide-format printer manufacturer Epson, Long Beach, Calif., will bundle their SoftRIP RIP software package with with Epson’s new SureColor SC-F6000 and SC-F7000 roll-fed dye sublimation printers in North America, South America, China, Singapore, and Taiwan.
Both the 44-inch SureColor SC-F6000 and the 64-inch SC-F7000 provide quality output up to 720 x 1440 dpi on all leading transfer papers. These new printers are the first dye sublimation models from Epson and all the components, including ink, printheads, printer body, and optional accessories, are designed and manufactured by Epson. Wasatch SoftRIP has features tailored for the dye sublimation and digital textile printing markets, making it the perfect solution for these printers. SoftRIP’s Press Curves and Calibration Curves make it easy for users to construct color profiles for processes that suffer from extreme dot gain, such as dye sublimation and digital textile printing, and helps maximize the benefit of SoftRIP’s 16-bit color rendering pipeline.
