HP announces that Caldera V11 RIP suite has passed the variety of print tests needed to achieve certification for use with the HP Latex 500 series of printers. The scheme is designed to reassure users that, as an approved vendor, all components of their Caldera RIP will be compatible with investments in HP hardware from this product line, including the popular and recently added Latex 560 and Latex 570. Choosing a Caldera RIP means choosing an independent, multi-vendor software system optimised for performance on Linux or Mac, according to a source from the software company.
HP Latex 560/570 RIP Certification Program tests RIP software in a controlled environment over a number of specified print tests, involving a selection of TIF, JPEG, EPS, PDF and PNG image files. The certification applies to the whole V11 suite, which includes GrandRIP+, VisualRIP+, TextilePRO and many others. Caldera V11 is the latest version of the renowned software, launched at the recent 2016 SGIA at Las Vegas in September.
