Who is looking a little bit closer into this sector has certainly noticed that there are a lot of new printing devices coming into the market and that there are continuously new and the most strange materials to be printed. The customer, however, asks to have color fidelity also on these special media. It is therefore of utmost importance to create ICC profiles also for these type of materials in order to be able to apply Color Management.
BARBIERI electronic has recognized this problem and has developed the new spectrophotometer Spectro LFP RT (Large Format Printing). After the extremely successful models Spectro 100xy and Spectro 50xy all the experience and know-how has been integrated into the new Spectro LFP RT.

Use
The Spectrophotometer Spectro LFP RT is an automatic measuring instrument for both reflection and transmission mode to create ICC profiles (International Color Consortium) and is used in modern Color Management for digital output of images.

Application fields
• Creation of ICC profiles for digital output devices for most different materials (both reflective and transparent)
• Single measurements of logo-colors (Pantone) with subsequent check of the color-true printing
• Use as a densitometer to determine density values for films and papers

Technical characteristics
• 3 reading modes:
- Automatic measurements
- Single measurements
- Density measurements
• The following materials printed on large format inkjet-printers can be measured automatically: papers, vinyl, textiles, cardboards, plastic plates, gypsum plates, wood, glass, stone and ceramics plates.
• Able to measure heavy and thick materials
• For reflective and transparent media
• Measuring aperture adjustable from 2 to 6mm
• High quality electronic components and modern assembling system
• Robust transport unit
• Compatible for Macintosh and PC
• Extremely high measuring precision and repeatability
• Creates high quality ICC profiles
