Meteor Inkjet brings out eLab Pro

Global Graphics subsidiary Meteor Inkjet has developed eLab Pro, a scalable industrial inkjet Rip plug and play package.

Powered by Harlequin, eLab Pro builds upon Meteor’s existing eLab Rip configuration tool. Designed for developers of industrial inkjet systems, eLab Pro works with Meteor’s inkjet printhead drive electronics and software offering an intuitive graphical user interface with the ability to command the Rip directly from the print controller or printer Digital Front End (DFE). eLab Pro has integrated access to ScreenPro, a multi-level screening engine - developed by sister company Global Graphics Software - that corrects inkjet print imperfections, and MetCal, wizard-driven software that automates printer calibration and runs Meteor’s nozzle-out compensation technologies. eLab Pro also works alongside various VDP PDF products including Harlequin VariData, Stepz by Hybrid Software and Variegator by Xitron. Used together with a spectrophotometer (not included) and ICC profile creation software, such as that provided by ColorLogic or X-Rite, colour management and spot colour matching capabilities are available.
