About ColorMark+
ColorMark+ is a suite of software applications that enhances the
standard ColorMark Color Management System and ColorSpan
Print Server Software. It may be included with, or may be pur-
chased separately from, your ColorSpan Print Server.
ColorMark+ enables you to:
◆ Create and edit custom color profiles
- these profiles mea-
sure, or characterize, the color properties of a specific printer,
media, and ink combination. The ColorMark Color Manage-
ment System and ICC (International Color Consortium)
workflows use profiles (in different formats) to ensure accu-
rate and consistent color matching. You can create custom
ColorSpan profiles for third-party (non-ColorSpan) media,
edit ColorSpan profiles to your requirements, or create ICC
profiles to integrate them into an ICC workflow.
◆ Print using an ICC workflow -
the ICC profiles created by
the ColorMark+ software are ICC-compliant and can be inte-
grated into an ICC workflow.
◆ Manipulate RIP Saver files
- the Post-RIP Manipulation Tool
enables you to interactively adjust the cropping, color, and
placement properties of a document and print it again with-
out re-RIPing the file. (Color adjustments cannot be made to
ICC workflow jobs.)
Use the version of ColorMark+ suited to your requirements:
◆ Use Version 1.5
to create profiles with up to six process col-
ors (may include multidensity inks for a total of ten inks) for
the DisplayMaker HiRes 8-Color Series and Giclée
PrintMakerFA.
◆ Use Version 2.0
to create profiles with up to eight process
colors (may include multidensity inks for a total of twelve
inks) for the DisplayMaker Series XII, DisplayMaker FabriJet
XII, and DisplayMaker Esprit printers
