Color solutions for your workflow

RGB or CMYK. Printing or proofing. Pleasing color

or accurate color. With the HP Designjet 130 printing system, you can choose the solution that best fits your needs, your workflow and your environment.

HP Designjet 130 drivers

Optimized Mac and Windows drivers deliver outstanding color output for photographers or designers printing images in an RGB workflow. Support for RGB ICC profiles means you have the choice of managing color in the applications or via ICM profile or ColorSync tools.

The drivers also allow you to balance color channels individually when you need one last tweak.

HP Software RIP

Designed for creatives who need color management in

a CMYK workflow, this optional RIP adds the capabilities designers need to generate accurate layouts, comps or concept proofs that integrate images with text, logos

Color technology by HP

Inks and media deliver fade resistance and stability

New, dye-based inks, combined together with HP papers, produce images that stabilize in minutes vs. hours and last for years. HP inks, media and printers are designed together for results that do justice to your ideas.

or illustrations. A true Adobe PostScript 3 solution, the RIP offers complete ICC profile management, including input and output profiles, as well as automatic PANTONE®2 calibration to easily and accurately print corporate or specific colors.

EFI Designer RIP for HP XL

This EFI solution is ideal for agencies and service bureaus whose workflow requires incremental production, color management or proofing capabilities. It offers in-RIP separations for the composite workflow, as well as the ability to define non-standard spot colors. It also offers job management tools including job ticket and control strip ability as well as job nesting for paper savings. You can easily emulate offset presses or other printing devices via ICC profiles, and CMYKplus support allows you to produce images perceptually consistent with offset output, but with the richer and more vibrant colors possible with a digital printer.

Third-party RIPs

HP has worked with virtually all the leading RIP vendors in digital photography, large-format printing and pre-press proofing fields to ensure you can choose the solution that

HP color layering technology

Like artists creating new colors by mixing the standard paints on their palettes, multi-layering technology uses the basic CMYKcm palette to achieve a much broader range of printable colors.

By layering ultra small (4 pl) drops within a single dot, HP Designjet 130 printers produce smoother gradations between tones for virtually grain-free images.

Automatic color calibration

The automatic closed-loop color (CLC) calibration process enables consistent and accurate color reproduction.

The CLC process is based on measuring, via a color sensor, reflected energy from primary color tiles that are illuminated with a narrow-bond light source. The process works in much the same way

as a classical densitometer. The printer generates a target, scans the pattern and adjusts based on the results.
