Simply put, the IColor™ ProRIP software is the magic behind one pass printing with white as an underprint® or an overprint®. The most important point of the IColor™ ProRIP software is that it allows colors to be put down in layers. Regular printer drivers only concern themselves with what the eye sees on the top layer, the RIP allows you to separately control each layer, thus giving you the ability to control not only what you see, but what is behind that top layer (typically the white layer). The IColor™ ProRIP gives you the unique ability to use one machine to print images with white as an underprint® or an overprint®. You can now print vibrant colors on clear or dark media regardless of the background to which it is applied, where the white is put down first and the colors afterwards. The IColor™ ProRIP ‘Color Mapping’ feature also allows for ‘Reverse Printing’ when printing and transferring to garments where white is put down last. This is the only way to achieve white underprint® and overprint® in one pass, and you will not find another software and hardware combination on the market today that can do all of this. The software also allows for color manipulation and removal, rasterization, white opacity control, substrate color preview, cost calculation and advanced layout tools.
