What I'm missing is the support for Accuphoto GSX. Linearization can be extremely difficult when you have to find the best values for ink limiting. I saw that EFI had a RGB mode for the other versions of this printer (30600 and 50600) in their latest update, so I hope that they will have support for the 70600 in the next version.
The color science for determining the per channel ink limits, linearization curves, and total ink limiting is often disappointing in these RIPs. I've developed some methodology for determining these things outside of the RIP and then plug them into the RIP and that's the key to optimizing the calibration prior to profiling. This is the subject of a lot of the hands-on training I provide. I'm working on an article that will go into further detail on this...
RGB modes will work with the colors but metallic solver and white will always require CMYK+N channel modes. CMYK and CMYK+ modes work great anyway - not much advantage to RGB really. How does EFI's support look for white and metallic silver handling, print color order, media retraction, drying times, alpha channel handling,etc?
Ergosoft has support for all the SC-S series printers.
Yes, but how thorough is it for the S70? How does the support look for white and metallic silver handling, print color order, media retraction, drying times, alpha channel handling, Accuphoto GSX mode, etc? Do tell!
