DuPont Imaging Technologies will deploy its well-recognized DuPont(TM) CromaNet(TM) color management, together with DuPont(TM) Cromalin(R) ink and media, on the Creo Veris(TM) proofer. Work is underway to complete development of this Cromalin(R) Veris proofing solution, which will be available through DuPont sales channels. "The Creo Multi-Drop Array(TM) imaging technology used on the Veris proofer delivers precise control of its 3 pL ink drops to produce superior-quality inkjet printing," explained Paolo A. Barbieri, global business director, DuPont Color Communication. "This innovation creates a premiere level of image quality and color accuracy that, when associated with the finest Cromalin(R) color management and media, will offer a unique, high-level contract proofing solution. We are pleased to offer this solution to our customers." "This work builds on the strong relationship we have established with DuPont Imaging Technologies in the provision of thermal digital halftone In printing, the simulation of a continuous-tone image (shaded drawing, photograph) with dots. All printing processes, except for Cycolor, print dots. In photographically generated halftones, a camera shoots the image through a halftone screen, creating smaller dots for lighter areas and proofing systems and consumables and the development of color not of the white race; - commonly meaning, esp. in the United States, of negro blood, pure or mixed.

The first flat panels appeared on laptop computers in the mid-1980s, and the LCD technology became the standard. Stand-alone LCD screens became available for desktop computers in the mid-1990s and exceeded sales of CRTs for the first time industry," said Amos Michelson, Creo chief executive officer. "Both Creo and DuPont Imaging Technologies have a strong history of leveraging one another's technical excellence to deliver superior quality and value to our customers." The Veris proofer produces a controlled stream of precisely-formed and placed drops at 1500 x 1500 dpi, for high-quality, repeatable proofs that are accurate predictors of the final printed job. Creo will continue to sell Veris proofing solutions, complete with Creo ink and media and direct connectivity to Creo Prinergy(R) and Brisque(R) prepress workflows, through Creo sales channels. DuPont Imaging Technologies and Creo are also starting evaluation of a new version of the DuPont(TM) Cromalin(R) b2 drop-on-demand inkjet proofer that will be integrated with Creo workflow The automatic routing of documents to the users responsible for working on them.
