The new OKI printer range can print white or clear toner on substrates that go beyond the usual range of digitally printed products, with its digital textile transfer capabilities.
Supporting embellishment and specialist print applications, the Pro9000 Series delivers vibrant, high-quality colour printing on a wide range of media. ColorGATE has added a RIP and colour management workflow to this flexible and powerful hardware concept that unleashes the full potential of professional, creative and profitable applications, with a focus on automation, workflow integration and advanced colour management.
Six different configurations of ColorGATE’s modular Productionserver have been tailored to particular applications. All of them enable colour-accurate printing including validation prints, efficient data handling with hot folders and containers, and nesting and tiling. ColorGATE’s driver technology for the OKI systems also contains a newly developed raster technology that optimises the print quality throughout all tonal values.
The ColorGATE Productionserver OKI Digital Smart Screen Transfer enables the production of textile transfers with the OKI Pro9541WT on suitable carrier substrates. The white layer required in textile transfers can be printed either digitally, i.e. using white toner from the OKI printer, or in screen printing. The latter option is enabled by the support of Exostencil transfer media to produce screen printing stencils. This solution can also be used for creating a full set of screens (containing all colours of a print job) if an additional computer-to-screen module is added to the configuration.
The ColorGATE Productionserver for OKI Pro 4C supports the OKI Pro9431dn. It is the most affordable way to add advanced efficiency to the OKI printer and contains several automation and colour features such as spot colour libraries, hot folder support, linearisation and ColorGATE’s Media Device Synchronisation that ‘resets’ the print system to a defined colour state.
The ColorGATE Productionserver for OKI Pro 5C does the same for the OKI Pro9541dn and the Pro9542dn. In addition, it contains ColorGATE’s Profiler module so OKI users can create their own ICC profiles for highly accurate colour under all circumstances.
The ColorGATE Productionserver also includes support for an additional LFP device (any ‘Category 1’ printer supported by ColorGATE) and that way enables hybrid production: while brochures, flyers and labels are produced swiftly and efficiently on the OKI, while colour-matched banners and posters can be printed on the LFP device.
