The HD RIP enables what offset and commercial printers have wanted for a long time – Printing images that are even better than FM quality while only worrying about the cost and effort for AM. HD RIP gives you much more color stability with perfectly homogeneous fills, and the smoothest of blends with brilliant shades of color.
Get a competitive edge by using HD RIP: Even in newspaper print you will achieve quality images which convince both your readers and your ad clients. Images in high definition quality are helping to establish long-term customer satisfaction and customer loyalty. As a result printers and publishers can benefit by growing ad sales and turnover. Also various additional costs can be eliminated: HD RIP easily integrates in your Asura® workflow. Hence updates, backups and changes have only be done once centrally. Moreover no additional license is required for a reserve plate line and there are also no additional investments for infrastructure necessary.
The Homogeneous-HD technology finally allows you to bring together the best of AM and FM and deliver photo quality image printing. Even the smallest detail will be processed perfectly – forget moiré effects and "rosette" patterns. Photo-quality printing – With Homogeneous HD Technology the combination of the best of AM and FM finally succeeded
