Hi All,
I'm new to this forum and wanted to start by making a significant announcement. After over a year of development, ColorQuick is about to introduce Veroproof, a free open source RIP. Veroproof has been certified by the IDEAlliance for GRACoL, SWOP3 and SWOP5 for the EPSON R2880. It also works very well on the HP 8850, and HP 9180. And has been specifically designed to work well out of the box, without the need for spectrophotometers.
So what's the catch? Not much really. The software will be released as open source so you may use it free of charge. It has been specifically designed to work with our Veroproof brand paper (est. retail $5 per 13 x 19 sheet). But the paper comes with an added benefit. It has a preprinted "to the numbers" GRACoL or SWOP3/5 color bar on the top of each piece of proofing paper. The software inserts a second (reference) color bar along with the proof image. Just visually compare the two bars on any proof....and if they match, your proof is good.
Will other models be supported?
In addition to the Epson 2880 and HP 8850/9180 we will be considering requests for supporting other models. We will of course need some assistance in getting the color right, be we're willing to work with anyone to get certain popular models of printers working with the Veroproof software.
