FastRIP

PRO for Macintosh ver. 9.0

Chapter 5

Settings and Modes

FastRIP™ has a variety of settings and modes that allow you to customize your print

output.

High Speed (HS) Mode

FastRIP™ allows you to print twice as fast in the HS (High Speed) mode. There might

be a slight decrease in the amount of ink laid down and there could be very minor

registration issues on large prints.

Functions

FastRIP

offers a variety of functions for output, including font use, scaling, print

mode, color management and spot color options. Not all options are available with all

printers. Starting on page 49 of this manual we list the various available print modes for

each of the different printers.

Inkjet Proofs

FastRIP

allows you to print a color calibrated inkjet proof to show a customer. You

can print a standard inkjet proof or you can print a proof using standard halftone dot

settings of 45 LPI, 55 LPI or 65 LPI to simulate the look of halftones when the image is

actually screen printed. The halftone dot proof is much better to use than the regular

inkjet proof because it provides the customer a truer representation of the final product.

Heat Transfers

FastRIP

is calibrated for most off-the-shelf, coated T-Shirt transfer paper. It does

color correction and mirrors the image before output so it can be used with most T-Shirt

Transfer papers from Canon, Avery, EPSON, etc.

Recommended Resolution

If you are printing from a vector based program, the image resolution varies by printer.

For film output, FastRIP

uses a 720 x 720 dpi setting for “monochrome” printing. This

is actually a fairly high resolution when you consider many “imagesetters” like the OYO

and EcoPRO are only printing at 400 to 600 dpi.

If you are printing from a pixel based program like Adobe Photoshop, the image

resolution needs to be high enough to prevent jagged edges in the print. For halftone

1 2 ... 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 ... 81 82
