    I1Profiler is used to create device profiles for printers, monitors, scanners, etc. When a RIP-based workflow is being used, the RIP is responsible for ink restrictions and linearization. Therefore, ink limiting/ restrictions are performed in the RIP rather than i1P.
  2. X-Rite Profiling

    Ink limit step is performed prior to the linearization as described above. There is a file to output and make ink restriction decisions from. The other issue that you are facing is that the SAI RIP must build/ process the ICC Profiles, and they cannot be directly imported from external color...
  3. Suggestions Color Management Education

    Your understanding is not wholly accurate. In addition to the internal procedure, several RIPs offer support for Latex 36x and 500 Series printer to directly address the on-board i1 spectrophotometer in the printer. This allows the software RIPs color engine to be used for profile creation...

    In that picture, the leader is PVC banner,and the print media is self-adhesive vinyl, but could be almost any class of print media. Masking tape is resistant to the heat that the printer is capable of delivering (a maximum of 116c/ 241f). The take-up reel runs the same, with or without a...
  13. HP 365 latex starting to get head crashes

Many users take small 2-5 foot long butt rolls of PVC banner media (13-18 oz) and affix to the front of the print media before loading into the printer. The leader is ideally the same width as the print media, as this makes loading...

    This is a great point. Traffic and safety sheeting such as HIP and Diamond Grade reflective films are a very expensive and relatively rigid class of medias. Using a reusable leader when loading the printer with these films saves a significant amount of media, minimizes the potential for...
