Inca Digital introduces Caldera GrandRIP+ for use with its range of wide format printers

“We continually evaluate and approve a variety of software solutions in order to give Inca users’ maximum choice and the flexibility to optimise the performance of their Inca printers,” says Heather Kendle, Inca Sales and Marketing Director. “Caldera has a strong and established reputation as a RIP supplier to the wide-format sector and one of the decision factors was the ability to run the software on a Mac or Linux operating system. We have worked closely with them to develop drivers specifically for our range of Inca printers in order to ensure the seamless compatibility, reliability and maximum productivity that Inca customers expect.”
“Inca is a leading wide-format manufacturer and we are very pleased that they recognise the power of our production solutions,” says Valery de March, Caldera OEM Director. “GrandRIP+, featuring our unique APPE (Adobe PDF Print Engine) implementation in a wide format production RIP, is now fully operational and optimised for every Inca printer model to provide significant productivity and quality benefits.”

The Caldera GrandRIP+ supports a wide range of input file formats including PostScript and PDF, in addition to standard image file formats. Support for ICC profiles together with sophisticated pre-flight and preview of jobs enables accurate ‘no surprises’ printing, including automatic detection and simulation of spot colours based on media profiles. Advanced layout, tiling, step-and-repeat and nesting features optimise output of very large, mixed or repeating jobs while minimising processing time and use of ink and media. For sign-making applications these features, enable rapid and efficient assembly and installation.

In addition to the Caldera GrandRIP+ the Inca portfolio of RIP solutions also includes the Wasatch SoftRIP and ColorGATE PRODUCTIONSERVER6 RIP.
