Fiery has released the Digital Factory 12 RIP, marking a significant advancement for print service providers seeking superior colour, streamlined production, and easy workflow automation with direct-to-film (DTF) and direct-to-garment (DTG) printing. A unique feature of the RIP is its new saturation rendering created specifically for DTF and textile workflows, to boost vibrancy in traditionally dull areas while preserving natural skin tones. Fiery says ‘It delivers punchier, more impactful colour without the risk of over-saturation, making it ideal for apparel decoration, heat transfers, and promotional items.
Another feature is the RIP’s Fiery Colour Profiler add-on, which enables print operators to achieve repeatable, professional-quality output using supported spectrophotometers to calibrate printers and build ICC profiles in-house. Also, replacing the need for third-party tools, the new Digital Factory 12 RIP offers the Gang Sheet Builder, which brings a visual, drag-and-drop layout directly into the system. Operators can preview, group, nest, and auto-close sheets, all from the queue, which Fiery claims is more intuitive and engineered specifically for DTF production needs. Digital Factory 12’s new, streamlined interface and powerful production tools reduce complexity and time-to-print, allowing both experienced and novice operators to produce complicated jobs.
