Global Graphics, one of the leading developers of software platforms for digital printing, has launched Version 11 of the Harlequin RIP, which transforms design and prepress data into a format that can be printed and feeds those pages to the press. The Harlequin RIP is compatible with a wide range of PDF design tools and compliant with industry standards.
The new version, Harlequin 11 offers improved inkjet output quality, more controls for variable data printing, and contains new features for labels and packaging applications. It also introduces a new feature whereby each graphic is rendered only once even if it is used in multiple positions on a page. Harlequin 11 is available in two editions – the Harlequin Host Renderer 11, which powers the digital front ends used in high volume digital production environments; and, Harlequin MultiRIP 11 for conventional and light digital production printing.
At drupa 2016, Global Graphics will introduce the Harlequin Multi-Level Digital Screening engine. This engine is part of a new service the company will introduce to inkjet developers at drupa, that sees technicians measure test prints from single-pass greyscale presses, and process the results through the new Digital Print Quality Optimizer tool. This tool calculates optimized patterning and overlaps for the variousink drop sizes available, to overcome common high-speed inkjet press problems such as streaking and mottling.
