X-Rite and Canon Europe announce i1Process Control version 3

Developed exclusively for Canon by X-Rite, i1Process Control v3 provides imagePRESS customers with seamless, integrated control over their color print production output and features a host of enhancements including iterative profiling, new ISO verification features, as well as new interoperability and workflow enhancements.

i1Process Control v3 now also offers CMYK printer profiling, as well as advanced display profiling, when used with the bundled award-winning i1Pro spectrophotometer. Thanks to the new integration features, i1Process Control users will be able to print test charts on their Canon imagePRESS, and streamline their workflow using X-Rite’s i1iO and i1iSis automated chart readers.

New verification and validation features will allow users to verify their output against ISO 12647-7 targets, or save their measurement data to use as a custom reference target for process control proof for their customers.

The new Profile Viewer in i1Process Control v3 will give users the ability to perform measurement and gamut analysis, using a new improved user-friendly software interface. i1Process Control v3 will include the new PANTONE PLUS SERIES digital library, in addition to the previously-available PANTONE Goe digital library for direct spot color verification.

i1Process Control v3 for Canon imagePRESS will be available in July 2010 through all of Canon’s sales channels.
