Caldera releases new solutions for DTG and DTF printing

Caldera Direct-to-X product range will initially only be available in a bundle from selected direct-to-garment (DTG) and direct-to-film (DTF) printer OEMs, as the first of a suite of linked products. It will be followed by Caldera Direct-to-Object and Caldera Direct-to-Fabric, and the new software will form a suite of Direct-to-X RIPs, aimed at the garment decoration market. The company is now bundling with some market leading garment printer manufacturers, while continuing to work with other OEMs to offer an exciting new solution for garment printing machines.

Also, Caldera has created a new offering for the apparel decoration market, aiming at users who want to provide full customisation to their clients, from unique pieces to small batch print runs, according to a source from the company. The software’s key features will include colour management, a background knock-out feature, intelligent white management, ink management and an easy-to-use GUI. After all, Caldera Direct-to-X product range is a radical change for the company in another way: it will be the first Caldera RIP product to natively run on Microsoft Windows, as well as Mac OS and Linux.
