SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- ONYX Graphics, Inc. today
announced it has added support for the new Epson Stylus(R) Pro GS6000
commercial outdoor printer. The printer driver is available now.
Working closely with Epson, ONYX Graphics has developed a top-quality
production driver for the Epson Stylus Pro GS6000. The unique features of the
Epson Stylus Pro GS6000 are enhanced by the remarkable productivity, cost
savings and color output provided by the ONYX(R) workflow family of products.
"This alliance between Epson and ONYX has allowed us to combine our newly
developed Epson Stylus Pro printers with ONYX workflow software products in
order to address the diversifying needs of print-for-pay users in the best
possible way," comments Hiroshi Sotokawa, General Manager of Epson's Inkjet
Business Product Planning Department. "I'm confident that this new
combination of technologies will set a new standard for signage."
"Epson is a world leader in print technology with a reputation for
manufacturing high quality printers that produce superior image quality," said
Jeb Hurley, President and CEO of ONYX Graphics, Inc. "Our ongoing
relationship with Epson enables ONYX to bring our expertise in color workflow
for solvent printing to the table, and together we have developed tools that
deliver exceptional and consistent results."
The ONYX driver combines key features of the Epson Stylus Pro GS6000 with
ONYX product benefits:
Productivity
-- Full support for all Epson Stylus Pro GS6000 print modes, including
the high-speed 720 x 360 dpi two-pass print mode: immediately use
whatever print mode -- high speed or high quality -- is required to
get the job done
-- Printer status viewable in the RIP-Queue, displaying ink levels and
heater temperature
-- Automatic spot color library matching, including PANTONE(R), HKS and
RAL professional color libraries, which help reduce manual
print-and-test trials that can increase throughput time
-- Streamlined system for fewer steps from file to print
Cost-Savings
-- Support for printing with only CMYK inks, reducing ink costs (omitting
orange and green when not necessary)
-- Intelligent nesting saves media; job tracking provides cost data by
job; and soft proofing reduces turnaround time by eliminating the
hardcopy proof step
Superior Color Output
-- Epson-qualified media profiles, including media from Epson and other
popular media manufacturers, supported for various print modes, ensure
customers consistently get the high quality they are expecting
-- More vibrant colors with true CMYKcmOG color-managed printing for
maximum gamut and spot color matching using the printer's expanded ink
set
-- ONYX ProductionHouse(TM) and ONYX PosterShop(R) software are G7 and
SWOP(R) (Standard Web Offset Printing) certified so users can
confidently use digital press proofs with the assurance of matching
SWOP criteria
