The multi-award-winning Command WorkStation provides maximum control for the easy and efficient production of digital print jobs. This far-reaching centralised print management software supports and supervises the functions of multiple controllers. Whether run from a desktop or locally at the colour server, the Command WorkStation is an extremely fast and very effective tool to enhance workflow and increase productivity. It streamlines operations by keeping the need to open and navigate multiple windows and dialogue boxes to a minimum and substantially reduces the number of keystrokes required to activate any function.

This innovative colour management system is an exacting utility for superior named colour matching that makes printing, creating and managing custom spot colours accurate and easy.

PANTONE library colours are automatically matched with their best CMYK equivalents and the HKS, Toyo and DIC spot colour systems are supported. Manual controlling is provided by Spot-Color Search, the graphical user interface, which also helps you locate the exact CMYK toner equivalents necessary to adjust the colour you want on any given device. Managing custom colours is easy: just group them into lists and specify names for them.

Making sure that the colours you print are the colours you want, regardless of application and platform, is the speciality of the complete in-RIP colour management system ColorWise®.

With a wide array of innovative and precise tools, the truly open ColorWise® system provides utmost control of colour quality and consistency.

With them, you can fine-tune output, configure personalised settings, accurately simulate the output of other devices, create custom colour profiles and select device link profiles.

The Variable Data Printing (VDP) support offered by the IC-302 controller makes one-to-one marketing in the print environment a reality by delivering personalised output. By linking print engines and databases, the information on each print can be individually tailored for a different target audience no matter how large or small the print run is.

In conjunction with the bizhub PRO C500, the IC-302 provides the keys to successful and profitable campaigns.

PPML

Personalised Print Markup Language (PPML) is an object-based open industry standard VDP language. It RIPs objects just once and then caches and reuses the images and data as required. By reducing network traffic, RIP performance is improved, ensuring that print engines can perform at or near their maximum speed.

FreeForm

Easy to deploy and support, this powerful and innovative solution RIPs master data just once, enhancing print engine capabilities. The standard FreeForm utility of the IC-302 controller eliminates the need to learn to use a separate front-end

application. FreeForm 2 allows users to select individual pages from a multiple page master providing for even more personalisation possibilities and greater VDP applications flexibility.

Crisp, bright and true colours: that’s what you want and that’s what the ColorProfiler provides.

This simple and flexible application enables you to create ICC profiles and exactly profile the CMYK response of the bizhub PRO C500. Its proven robust technology ensures vivid results every time.

The ColorProfiler also includes the fast, handheld ES-1000 spectrometer for easy and exact colour measurements. Used as an input device alongside the Graphic Arts Package, you can also create spot colour libraries with it.

The open architecture Impose is an essential and effective cross-platform imposition solution that can send jobs from any application, using any device, from any location.

With Impose, you can edit and assemble entire documents before processing or RIPping files while using a PDF workflow
