The Xerox Iridesse Production Press.

Xerox’s Fiery-driven EX-P 6 Print Server, which is the controller for its Iridesse Production Press, has been certified for use with the Color-Logic system of special effects, making it easier for designers to maximise the impact of the Iridesse’s gold, silver and white toners.

The Color-Logic software tool enables a variety of special effects, giving users the ability to differentiate themselves with dramatic print, while utilising the existing workflows of printers and designers.

Richard Ainge, chief technology officer for Color-Logic, said that pairing the new Xerox server and press with Color-Logic will deliver benefits of speed and reliability to the process of producing metallics.

‘Graphic designers preparing files for use on the Xerox Iridesse can use our design tools for Adobe CC and CS and be confident that the press will produce their files exactly when using the Fiery DFE. With our design tools, creatives can produce dramatic decorative effects in just seconds, while eliminating the guesswork and trial-and-error typical of metallic file preparation.’
