Proofing Mode: Ingenious Combination of HP5000 and HP10PS (II)

From the above text, we can see that whether it is the complaints of customers in actual production or the minds of printers, or the future development of digital proofing, they all pose new requirements and challenges to the existing digital proofing model. From the perspective of long-term development, the transformation of the proofing model is imperative.

As a pioneer in the field of proofing in the printing industry, HP is unanimously committed to helping printers and customers solve various problems, and is brave enough to create new ideas and innovations. In response to the current status of digital proofing and its future development, HP has launched a new generation of proofing models, the HP5000 and HP10PS, and selected Rainbow's color management system. This new model not only satisfies the strict requirements for color management in the proofing technology, but also shows the advantages of digital proofing in terms of speed and color through the ingenious combination of the two devices.

1) HP5000

We know that the HP5000 has always been the preferred device for many output centers and inkjet shops, and it has an absolute advantage over print quality and speed.

The HP DesignJet 5000 uses HP's smart printing technology, which includes smart color technology, which is also known as the third-generation "Furtu" color layering technology. Smart color technology allows each primary color to print out 17 different levels of color intensity. These colors can be mutually reconciled to increase the color of the printer palette by 100 times, and to achieve 1200×2400 dpi printing accuracy. Since smart color technology can control the amount of ink of each color ink in each printing position, it can make the color range wider and the transition between colors smoother, which can significantly improve the print quality.

Also attracting buyers is the print speed of the HP DesignJet 5000. The stable and high-speed printing speed is not only a reliable guarantee of production efficiency, but also an effective way to win customers' trust and win customers. The HP DesignJet 5000's print speed benefits from the intelligent Jetexpress technology, which is another important technology in HP's intelligent printing technology. The technology uses a wider print head and increases the number of nozzles on the print head to increase print speed and print quality. The greater the number of nozzles, the faster the printing speed. Printers that use intelligent jetexpress technology typically have 4 to 6 print heads, each with 512 nozzles. The hp designjet 5000 series with its 6-color print head features 3072 nozzles, which increase the printhead's inkjet frequency to 15,000hz and print speeds of 4 to 6 times or more.

2) HP DesignJet 10PS

In this printer, there are six ink cartridges installed, the original cyan, magenta, yellow and black, as well as the new bright cyan and bright magenta, the cartridge ink is based on dye, which includes black, can print real black , guarantee the printing effect of offset printing.

In the same printer, the speed of the HP DesignJet 10 PS is impressive. Printing at 600 x 600 dpi resolution takes 6.55 minutes; printing at 1200 x 600 dpi resolution takes 14.30 minutes. This is obviously less time than similar products. In terms of print quality, at 600 × 600 dpi resolution, text edges less than 8 pt have some glitches; at 1200 × 600 dpi resolution, all text, including 5 pt size, print quality is perfect. With regard to cost, HP DesignJet 10PS printers have 20-30% full-color ink coverage (images) with excellent quality and maximum resolution, according to HP's consumption assessment. However, the ink and paper used are very economical, and the overall application cost is very low.

In addition, the HP DesignJet 10/20PS continues the popular open-edition style of HP's previous printers - the DesignJet 800PS-107 cm, the DesignJet 1055CM-91 cm, and the "mega" and multifunction printer DesignJet 5000 PS with 152 cm print Width and extra proof capacity are printed even on newsprint media.

3) Rainbow Dijet Color Management System

The rainbow color management system CMS developed by Beijing Rainbow Dijet Digital Technology Co., Ltd. uses the ICC standard to manage the color space space of different devices in the workflow, and consists of three parts: First, the device-independent CIE reference color space; Is the device's ICC profile (PROFILE); third is the color management module CMM. Among them, the color management module CMM is the core, it is the use of professional digital proofing software combined with other color management software, fine-tuned color space conversion data integration. These data centered on the commonly used printed materials and processes in the country, and made a lot of in-depth color space model experiments under different production conditions to simulate the printing and proofing results and measured, so the data is accurate and comprehensive, and it is truly suitable for China's national conditions.” Digital proofing is a good helper.

There are already enough promotions on the HP5000 and HP10PS in the market. We don't stress too much here. We mainly want to promote a new digital proofing model, which caters to the development trend of digital proofing and can help printers and customers solve their current difficulties.

For a printer or output center that already has an HP5000, it is a good idea to configure a cheap and practical HP10PS. With accurate color reproduction, high quality print quality, impeccable print speed, and a wide range of sizes, it can work in harmony with the HP5000 to create a new proofing mode. In addition, when the operator is first proofing for a print job, if there are more uncertain factors or only a layout proofing, HP10PS can be selected for small-format proofing, and the customer is satisfied with all elements and layouts on the layout. After the final contract proofing. The benefits of this are: speed, low modification costs, accurate color, and flexible operation.

On the other hand, printing companies can configure a HP10PS printer for long-term fixed customers. Using Rainbow Dijon's color management system, HP's digital workflow proofing portfolio can be easily implemented. The customer can easily achieve a small amount of proofing within the A3 format in his office space, and immediately correct the errors appearing in the proofs until they are satisfied. Then the electronic documents are delivered to the printing factory. In this way, it is easy to solve the dilemma of repeated modifications and round-trips in the past. The production cycle is shortened and the efficiency is improved. Moreover, deploying a cheap printer for long-term customers may be a trick for printers to provide value-added services, strengthen relationships with customers, and win surprises.
