ProofMaster Plus

Product Info

Accurate communication of what final prints will look like is key to customer confidence in any print business. Unexpected results are costly, time-consuming and damage that confidence. ProofMaster Plus provides a complete quality control solution that allows you to verify and correct incoming files and provide color accurate proofs on screen and on paper.

Contractual quality for better communication between print-buyer and production

ProofMaster Plus provides effortless setup and allows for out-of the box contract proofs in line with the ISO 12647-7 and other industry color standards. Regardless of whether you’re preparing files for offset, gravure, newspaper, flexo- or screenprinting, ProofMaster Plus’ Multi Channel color engine provides an easy path to spot-on results. It plays well with specialty printing types such as packaging, consistently generating superb, color-accurate proofs and ensures those results to carry through to production and final output. 

Built for flexibility and growth 

ProofMaster Plus combines unparalleled flexibility and ease of use straight out of the box. ProofMaster consists of different modules: the Calibrator, the Editor and the RIP, allowing the separation of calibration and profiling from job preparation and actual proofing. You can easily add functionality such as 1-Bit proofing or profile creation through the different available options. 

Efficiency through automation 

If you need advanced automation and interaction with 3rd party applications, ProofMaster DFlux provides automated file reception, routing and production.
