Navigator Harlequin RIP Options
From PDF-Based trapping to Simple Imposition, Xitron offers Navigator RIP options designed to save time and money.
IntelliTrap
(Requires Workflow)
The IntelliTrap PDF-based interactive trapping workflow module can be used in a fully automated mode or set to allow operators to inspect traps and apply changes on the fly, before committing the job to RIP and plate. Users can even enter misregistration values in the viewer to be sure the trap settings properly compensate for press issues.
​
HXM Hybrid Screening
Designed to improve print quality by increasing the output LPI for any given resolution, Hybrid Screening uses a combination of AM and FM dots. If a printer is currently imagining plates at 2400 DPI with output at 150 LPI and is able to hold a 1% dot when printing on the required substrate, using HXM screens makes it possible to print at 200-250 LPI without any special pre-press or on press requirement. HXM substitutes FM dots in highlights and shadows for greater clarity and definition.
Simple Imposition
Harlequin RIP Simple Imposition is an easy to use tool designed to address the most common imposition layout schemes, often eliminating the need for a separate imposition application. It can be used in a stand-alone Navigator RIP or in conjunction with Navigator workflow.
CIP3
Automatically generate .ppf ink control files for press consoles capable of CIP3 import.
HDS Screening
Frequency Modulated Screening (FM) places dots of varying sizes in a pseudo-random way to produce the required imaged without standard halftone screening. Some of the advantages include increased apparent sharpness and the removal of cross screen and object moiré. This is accomplished because the dots are dispersed instead of clustered as they are in a traditional periodic screen.
Raster PDF
Create rasterized PDF files of jobs for soft proofing or output on third-party systems while maintaining RIP accuracy.
