Proof with the new HP DesignJet Z9⁺ PostScript® series
GMG ColorProof supports the new printers 'HP DesignJet Z9⁺ 24-in PostScript®' and 'DesignJet Z9⁺ 44-in PostScript®' (without dual roll). With 5 print heads for up to 10 colors, the printers allows for a very large gamut. Both models are equipped with an X-Rite i1 measuring device and thus can be used with GMG ProofControl.
Keep up with the latest PDF technology
The RIP integrated in GMG ColorProof is based on the Adobe PDF Print Engine (APPE). We have updated the engine to the latest version 6.1 to ensure compatibility with the most advanced PDF technology and Adobe Creative Cloud applications. Please visit the Adobe website for further details on the Adobe Print Engine 6.1.
Embrace the convenience of our dongle-free GMG Online Licensing
The Application Service coming with this version supports the new GMG Online Licensing. Online licenses are system-based licenses that you can use on a local machine or in a virtual environment. They are very stable and don't require a dongle that could break or get lost. Learn more about our online licensing and how you can easily switch for free.
Enhance workflow with new XML job ticket options
Automation as flexible as you are: quickly adjust your workflow to sudden changes in your daily business by prioritizing upcoming jobs via XML job ticket. For jobs using GMG OpenColor standards, you can also add a job order. Apropos standards: if different versions of a proof standard are available, you can now specify exactly which version should be used for a job. Another improvement streamlines spot color handling: instead of creating a single gradation file for each color, you can now use just one gradation file for an entire library.
Solve problems faster with advanced job ticket reports
Job ticket reports now also show detailed information about warnings and error messages, so you can solve problems faster and easier. Please find further information about job ticket reports under the following link: Job Ticket Report
