EFI has announced worldwide availability for its latest wide- and superwide-format inkjet Fiery proServer.
Designed for EFI Vutek printers, Fiery proServer Version 6 is an advanced digital front end system to drive wide- to superwide-format inkjet printers. It features Fiery Accelerated System Technology (FAST) RIP, which processes PDF files up to seven times faster than before. It also delivers high-performance colour management workflow, supports FOGRA PSD Print Check, and is compatible with more than 540 printers from numerous major manufacturers.
John Henze, vice president of marketing for EFI Fiery, said: ‘This represents the first time that EFI FAST RIP technology has been available to the inkjet production market, which provides a unique performance benefit. This release marks a new age of high-performance production front ends for the sign and display graphics market.’
FAST RIP acceleration technology improves processing for the Adobe PDF Print Engine as well as the Adobe Post Script Interpreter (CPSI). A combination of file compression algorithms and efficient memory management redefines how complex images are analysed, resulting in ‘blazing fast PDF processing times’, said EFI.
UK customer Mitch Konstantinovic of Kamset has already upgraded to Fiery proServer 6, and described FAST RIP as ‘a complete game-changer’
