Fiery Colour Options

Basic versions of the Aficio MP C6000 and MP C7500 can be configured with one of two EFI Fiery controllers to provide professional print and scan functionality. The Fiery E-7100 is an embedded RIP, whilst the Fiery E-8100 is a an external RIP. Neither controller is available immediately on launch but will become available in Spring / Summer 2008.

Fiery controllers are the de facto choice in many professional print environments. Fiery controllers provide close control over job

queues, precise colour management, and through optional utilities, the means to impose print into multiple formats. Many customers in the production environment will already be using Fiery controllers with other production devices.

The Fiery print controllers are best suited to production environments for applications. Fiery drivers are a little more complex to use but do provide greater control over colour settings and print queues. The Fiery controllers have a standard PostScript driver; a priced option for the GW controller. PostScript is essential in Mac environments and advantageous where advanced Desktop Publishing Applications like Quark and Adobe InDesign are used.

Colour Matching

Most of us use Microsoft Office for our day to day work. Microsoft Office uses RGB data as a way of displaying colour on the Screen. When it comes to print, we use CMYK Toner to produce a Colour Page. So Colour conversion and matching is important to ensure that printed colours closely resemble those on screen. The Fiery controller has the ability to covert RGB images to CMYK print data, whilst at the same time making sure that if a file has CMYK data this is not affected.

Using the Fiery, experienced users can adjust colour conversion settings on a job by job basis to suit their needs.
