Leading RIP software manufacturers confirm: BARBIERI electronic plays an important role in the wide-format digital imaging and screen printing industry. As Barbieri’s special color measuring devices are implemented in these leading RIP the whole printing and color management workflow becomes much easier.

A very crucial and important part in the digital printing process is the RIP software. Besides many other tasks, the RIP is responsible also for correct linearization of the digital output device as well as for Color Management. For both a spectrophotometer is needed to get the colorimetric data. BARBIERI electronics’ special color measuring devices Spectro Swing and Spectro LFP are designed according to the specific needs of the wide-format digital imaging and therefore the leading RIP software manufacturers implemented these devices. A complete list of such RIP software can be found [here].

Thanks to this RIP support, the whole printing workflow and color management becomes much easier. The spectrophotometer is driven directly by the RIP which guides you step by step through the whole process. Printer linearization and ICC profile creation for all media used can be done quickly and easy. Thanks to this support color management is part of a whole workflow and not a separate task anymore.
