EFI has made available the newest upgrade to its EFI XF software series, adding new features to all EFI XF products, including EFI Fiery XF for large- to superwide-format production printing; Fiery XF for Rastek, Vutek, and Jetrion, as well as EFI Colorproof XF. The new upgrade features include:
• EFI cutting engine support: Dedicated Cut Server provides a seamless connection to 1200 cutters and routing tables from 70 manufacturers. The software generates cut marks for single jobs, nestings, and step-and-repeats. The Cut Server option can drive up to eight cutting engines at a time. And, a new Print & Cut option enables one-step printing and cutting.
• Enhanced linearization: Includes a new wizard for the creation of advanced linearizations for any Vutek printer/ink/media combination. Automatically calculates and recommends various ink limits and linearization parameters while allowing customers to easily and visually verify linearization settings.
• RGB contone driver, linearization, and profiling: Includes RGB contone drivers for many Epson and Canon printer models. The RGB drivers ensure smooth color gradations, increased RIPing speeds, and simplicity of profile generation.
• Improved Optimizer functionality: Optimizes matching between CMYK ICC reference and RGB, CMYK, CMYKOG, and CMYKRGB media profiles.
• Spot color overprint/measurement devices: Improves spot color overprint simulation for spot colors; also includes support for the Barbieri Spectro LFP Basic.
• Enhanced Dynamic Wedge: Provides an out-of-gamut warning in Job Explorer for spot colors compared against media profile. It also provides job-specific key colors analysis and optimization of process colors and spot colors, process colors only, or spot colors only.
