Printer features

Brilliant colors and resolution

The Phaser 480X delivers 256 shades of each primary color at 300-by-300 dots-per-inch resolution to produce millions of colors. Dye-sublimation produces brilliant colors with smooth transitions, sharp details, and accurate textures. In addition, the Phaser 480X gives you the power of TekColorª PhotoÞneª and TekColor Dynamic Correction, TektronixÕ proprietary image processing technology.

TekColor PhotoÞne image processing sharpens text and Þne lines while smoothing shaded Þll areas and optimizing image detail.

TekColor Dynamic Correction provides an easy way to select the right color correction for your application.

With built-in simulations of a SWOP (SpeciÞcations Web Offset Publications) press, commercial press, video display, and other devices, color correction is fast, accurate and accessible through simple driver selections. Support for PANTONE process color simulations provides even more ßexibility.

Digital pre-press proofs complete with trapping

The Phaser 480X provides the capability to print single or multi-page separation Þles created by Macintosh and Windows applications. Files are automatically assembled and printed, showing the overprint and trapping information. Separation Þles can be printed as four separate pages or as a composite page.

DCS Print

This standalone utility, running on Macintosh 7.X and Windows 3.1 platforms, allows you to directly print Desktop Color Separation (DCS) Þles, Adobe Separator and Aldus PageMaker output Þles. You can print high-quality DCS Þles by simply dragging the Þle onto the DCS Print application icon.
