ErgoSoft PosterPrint V14 RIP Software Achieves the Highest Certification Level for HP DesignJet L26500 and L28500 Latex Printer

ErgoSoft has announced the recent “certified” designation for the new HP L26500 and L28500 Latex Printers. In addition to achieving the highest rating of three stars for the dual sided print function, PosterPrint Version 14 is compatible with all of the essential performance features of the L26500 and L28500. With this announcement customers can be confident that the intuitive and innovative PosterPrint V14 by ErgoSoft will enhance output and improve workflow efficiency when paired with the HP DesignJet L26500 or L28500. Using PosterPrint V14 to power the L26500 or L28500 will highlight the printers’ fast production turnaround time, dual sided print capability and precise color accuracy.

PosterPrint V14 by ErgoSoft supports all of the essential functions that the DesignJet L26500 and L28500 have to offer. Included in this list is calibration using the internal spectrophotometer, setting parameters for the Bow Compensation, flexible media handling, monitoring of ink and media consumption, and production time reporting. In anticipation of this news, ErgoSoft has created a broad library of color profiles and configurations for the L26500 and L28500 that will enable fast and efficient upstart times when transitioning to the DesignJet L26500 and L28500.

The intuitive design of the ErgoSoft PosterPrint V14 enables efficient, automated production printing using a combination of image presets and multiple RIP servers1. The simplified user interface in PosterPrint V14 provides quick access to critical job creation, job preflight, printer status, job status and job costing information. Improved color accuracy is achieved using the new color management architecture incorporated into PosterPrint V14.

Having achieved the highest star rating from HP for the double-­-sided print feature on the HP L26500 and L28500 is a source of great pride for ErgoSoft. The ErgoSoft implementation allows printing several jobs onto one side of the media, then reloading the printed roll of media and completing the job by printing on the opposite side in reverse order with precise registration.
