This innovative proofing system is printing proofs live during Graph Expo, demonstrating the finest quality and performance with inkjet proofing. No other inkjet device has the repeatability and drop placement accuracy of the Multi-Drop Array(TM) inkjet imaging head technology. Veris repeatability and true resolution generate the most accurate contract proof available. The Veris proofer is the first to steer precisely formed individual ink droplets to their required location on paper, providing a true symmetrical resolution of 1500 x 1500 dpi. The Creo Certified Process(TM) is another breakthrough technology that Creo developed to provide proof integrity assurance to both printers and print buyers. The Veris proofer verifies that the calibration, the ICC ICC See: International Chamber of Commerce (International Color Consortium The International Color Consortium was formed in 1993 by eight industry vendors in order to create a universal color management system that would function transparently across all operating systems and software packages. ) profile, and the ink and media are correct for the defined proof and then automatically prints the Creo Certified Process stamp on the proof. This stamp ensures that everyone who sees the proof will know it has been made to the specifications noted on the proof in a well defined and precisely controlled process. Veris Joins Networked Graphic Production The Veris proofer has been developed to join a Networked Graphic Production environment, the Creo initiative that streamlines the print production cycle to facilitate better communication, production management and eliminate costly errors. This inititiative shares information throughout the production process and uses open standards Specifications for hardware and software that are developed by a standards organization or a consortium involved in supporting a standard. Available to the public for developing compliant products, open standards imply "open systems;" that an existing component in a system can be replaced such as PDF (Portable Document Format) The de facto standard for document publishing from Adobe. On the Web, there are countless brochures, data sheets, white papers and technical manuals in the PDF format. , JDF JDF Job Definition Format (XML-based format for workflow and control information) JDF Jamaica Defence Force JDF Juvenile Diabetes Foundation International JDF Job Description Form JDF Japan Defense Force JDF Jackson Drop Forge Company and XML XML in full Extensible Markup Language. Markup language developed to be a simplified and more structural version of SGML. It incorporates features of HTML (e.g., hypertext linking), but is designed to overcome some of HTML's limitations. to ensure compatibility with existing equipment and solutions from other vendors. Veris proofs can be produced directly from within the Prinergy(R) or Brisque(TM) workflow management systems or directly from other workflows or customer applications using hot folders. The Veris proofer can run up to 40 proofs continuously with unattended operation and the system ensures intelligent management of color and media utilization. The Veris proofer is ideal for Iris(R) users accustomed to the premium quality fine paper, base tint color and the glossy finish of Iris proofs. Veris will be available in North America and Europe in early 2003.
