Choose the Separation for the Artwork
- Spot Color: logos, lettering, cartoons and distinct ink colors.
- Simulated Process: photographic, painted and heavily blended artwork, with profiles for different production needs.
- CMYK Process: dedicated cyan, magenta, yellow and black plates; black generation, UCR, total-ink and tone controls, plus compatible external CMYK ICC/ICM conversion.
- Index: adaptive-palette, solid-pixel separations without AM halftone rescreening.
Review the Plates You Will Output
Select nonadjacent plates, merge only the selected colors and move plates up or down. Review garment proofs and individual films. View, Export, Print and Reprint use your live plates without rerunning automatic separation.
Start from Black Cotton, White Cotton, Polyester or Triblend. White Underbase, Highlight White and Polyester Blocker Gray are available according to the workflow; special plates count toward press capacity.
Control Halftones and FilmRIP
Set LPI, angle, dot shape, mesh-based recommendations, polarity, mirroring, registration marks and film slugs. Documented output settings include 600, 1200, 1440 and 2400 DPI. Save printer profiles and choose Standard, Heavy, Extra Heavy or Double Strike.
FilmRIP uses installed Windows printer drivers. Double Strike submits two passes and may require accurate refeeding. Actual density and dimensional accuracy depend on the printer, ink, film, driver and calibration; generic profiles are not certified setups.
Keep Jobs Repeatable
Use batch queues, sequential exports, job history, reusable recipes and Master Job Packages. Export grayscale TIFF masters, screened TIFF films, PNG proofs, and PDF/text job tickets. Store calibration and selected production reference records with the job.
Business Tools Included
Command Center includes customer records, quotes, invoices, payment records, artwork approvals, costing and inventory. Configured SMTP email supports attachments, with optional IMAP synchronization and an EML fallback. Export invoice line items as QuickBooks and Xero CSV files, also readable in Excel; column mapping is reviewed in the receiving product.
Data Backup and Recovery
Configure daily backups to your chosen storage location. Backups run when Command Center opens after the daily interval; the application must be running. Portable backups exclude email passwords and machine-bound licenses, which need separate setup after moving computers.
Evaluate Your Own Workflow
Advisor, QC and screen proofs guide operator review, not measured press predictions. CMYK, Index and ICC workflows require shop-specific qualification. Download the free 10-day trial instantly.
