SAN DIEGO, Jun 30, 1999 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- The ColorImage 6000
System, a Fully Integrated Color Proofing Platform that costs under $5,
000 which was demonstrated at Spring Seybold by Imaging Technologies
Corporation (Nasdaq: ITEC), has begun shipping in volume.
The CI-6000 Digital Color Proofing System meets the needs of color
critical print production users, graphics artists, photography studios,
and fine artists. It features extremely high quality image
reproduction, improved productivity, and operational flexibility.
ITEC's newest proofer can deliver proof prints throughout the design
and production process, which saves both time and expense.
"The CI-6000 combines ITEC's strengths in color technology with a
high-reliability Lexmark print engine to create an integrated,
networked, color proofing solution, all for half the cost of the
printing system with which it will compete," said Brian Bonar, ITEC
Chief Executive Officer.
The CI-6000 is a complete high-resolution color printing platform that
includes ITEC's award winning ColorBlind(R) Parachute, a color
management software for superior color accuracy; ITEC's Virtual Color
Network (VCN)to direct color management over the color server network;
and a Lexmark six color ink jet print engine to deliver outstanding
print quality. TheCI-6000 incorporates an external image management
color print server that hasthe power and storage capacity to
simultaneously spool, process, and printjobs from both the Macintosh
and Windows/NT operating environments on thesamenetwork.
At the heart of this advanced digital proofing system is
ColorBlind(R)'s Parachute color management software. Using the
ColorBlind color management engine and ICC profiles, users can produce
accurate, predictable, and consistent color proofs. The six-color print
engine delivers a wide color gamut that includes half-cyan and
half-magenta inks, so gradations are smooth and highlights won't wash
out. The CI-6000 System also includes ColorBlind(R) Edit, a powerful
color-correction and image enhancement application. With ColorBlind(R)
Edit, users can apply various tonal curve corrections and global and
selective color corrections in a device-independent color space.
ITEC's Virtual Color Network provides clients of the color server with
complete control over the color management process. Each client can
create unique setups (folders) on the server that contain specific
processing choices for images and illustrations, for RGB, CMYK, and
GRAY color spaces, as wellas varying rendering intents. Users can
simulate paper color, and otheroutput devices including analog proofing
systems or printing presses. The preview feature allows clients to view
output before printing saving time, ink, paper and frustration. With
standard ICC profiles for Imation Matchprint, DuPont WaterProof, and
Fuji Color Art simulations, the CI-6000 offers critical features needed
for a complete prepress solution.
