Overview
EFI Colorproof XF, a professional-level RIP, enables you to manage color in a new dimension by providing you with all the tools to produce the best color possible and to master any proofing or printing task, including producing ISO 12647-7 / 8 compliant validation printing and contract proofing. The solution caters to ad agencies, prepress businesses, publishers, newspapers, packaging companies, full-service printing houses, semi-professional photographers and print shops.

Feature Highlights

Is a Flexible Cross-Platform Client/Server Application
The solution is easy to set up, configure and use because of its application wizards and intuitive user interface. It allows you to easily manage each job, output configuration and location in a remote proofing environment, regardless of whether or not you work in a Windows, Macintosh or mixed environment!

Integrates Easily with Open Standard Workflows
Colorproof XF is focused on supporting industry standards, so it can be easily integrated into open standard workflows. As a result, you can do tasks such as produce ICC-compliant proofs according to ISO12647-7 or G7, or process PDF/X files or Pantone Goe spot colors. In addition, the Ugra/Fogra media wedges v2.2 and v3.0 and the IDEAlliance control strip are included.

Is Simple and Fast to Use
The solution is simple to use, so you can pick it up quickly due to its user-friendly interface, tutorial wizards, automatic modes and preconfigured workflows.

Comes in Modular Concept to Provide Maximum Flexibility
Colorproof XFs modular architecture allows you to customize it to meet your specific needs and operation size by adding the appropriate product or output options.

Offers Fully Automated and Remote Proofing Workflow for Quicker Turnaround
The combination of Colorproof XF with the latest printer technology and the embedded spectrophotometer lets you maximize your productivity with an automated workflow. The technology handles each step of the color measurement process automatically from linearization, profiling and calibration to optimization and verification. It also enables you to print labels directly on the output.

In addition, the solutions integrated remote proofing technology lets you easily set up remote proofing workflows and ensures consistent proof results at any location in your remote environment. By adding EFI Web Control Center, a Web-based application for remote control and distribution of proof jobs and the latest printers with embedded spectrophotometers, you can profit from the most efficient remote proofing workflow ever. Speed up your production and save money on expensive courier services.

Adapt to Specific Job Color Requirements with the Dynamic Wedge
The Dynamic Wedge is a dynamically created control strip that shows a jobs key and spot colors for verifying and, if required, optimizing the jobs color accuracy. It is perfectly suited for color-critical print jobs where a static wedge (e.g., Ugra/Fogra media wedge) does not reflect the key colors adequately or spot colors at all.

Supports Adobe PDF Print Engine v2.0
Colorproof XF supports the latest technologies for streamlining and enhancing workflow communication such as the Adobe PDF Print Engine.

Offers Perfect Matching and Spot Color Simulation
Powered by Bestcolor technology, Colorproof XF ensures perfect color matching for key and spot colors. It even comes with the DIC, HKS, Pantone and Toyo spot color libraries.

Achieves Maximum Productivity with Comprehensive Production Features
The solutions tools transform your printer into a fast and efficient production device. These features include tiling, step & repeat and color adjustments. In addition, its outstanding nesting capabilities lower your production costs dramatically by decreasing paper waste. Plus, an optional comprehensive cutting solution allows you to cut your print jobs and produce anything from contour-cut graphics to packaging mockups.
