ColoRite presents large format colour solutions at Visual Impact

ColoRite Equipment, Australia’s leading provider of hardware and software for accurate management of colour in all forms of graphic reproduction, is exhibiting its range of X-Rite and Monaco products at Visual Impact 2004, Sydney’s Darling Harbour from Thursday 12th to Saturday 14th.

“Visual Impact, held this year in conjunction with the Digit conference, is the Southern Hemisphere’s largest trade exhibition for the visual graphic display industry,” says ColoRite Equipment managing director David Mulligan. “Like so many other sectors, it is going digital with the adoption of wide and grand format inkjet, sublimation and paintjet systems – all of which need accurate methods for ensuring colour fidelity.”

He continues, “Whilst the expectations of the core printing industry with ICC profiling, digital proofing and colour management software are well established, there is a thirst for knowledge and solutions amongst the visual display community, which we intend to quench at Visual Impact 2004. We invite all types of customers with colour matching challenges to come along and see us this week.”

X-Rite and Monaco Systems products, exclusively distributed by ColoRite Equipment in Australia and New Zealand, will be on working display on Booth number 2. Continuing the theme ‘Matches Made in Heaven’ – a reference to X-Rite’s promise to ‘Get the right colour, anywhere, everytime’ - ColoRite Equipment will show solutions costing from just a few hundreds of dollars up to sophisticated spectrophotometers complete with ICC profiling and proofing software. Some of these products include:

Monaco EZColor – A very low cost software solution for matching colours between monitor, scanner and printer. Available alone or in a great value bundle with the OPTIX monitor calibrator, EZColor must represent the most fantastic value-for-money for anyone using computers for quality graphic reproduction.

Monaco DCColor – Monaco’s software specifically for digital camera profiling and colour fidelity! A new colour target will also be shown. With this combination, digital camera files sent for publishing or large format output can now look as good as if they were E6 transparencies, scanned on a high-end scanner.

X-Rite/Monaco Profiler Gold bundle – The best value bundle around for the serious professional operation! Featuring the industry-standard X-Rite DTP41 scanning spectrophotometer together with Monaco Gold ICC Profiling software and the OPTIX monitor calibrator, you get end-to-end colour management and very happy customers when they see how accurate their colours are reproduced!

X-Rite DTP22 – The ‘Digital Swatchbook’ for medium-level colour management at a very attractive price.

X-Rite DTP34 – The perfect densitometer for keeping large and grand format printers linearised and calibrated. Works on density, not spectral data so is quick and easy to use.

X-Rite 500 series – The industry benchmark range of spectrophotometers and combination spectro-densitometers. There is a 500 model for all applications, no matter how critical or at what stage of the graphic reproduction cycle.

David Mulligan concludes; “Of course, Visual Impact is in Sydney this year and not all of our ANZ customers will be able to come along. We cordially invite all that can visit the show to come along for a chat – we don’t mind sharing our knowledge! To all our non-NSW customers, if you need to know more about the products and the upcoming new product launches, please do not hesitate to contact us.”
