While we do have transfer media to laminate to any stock we also have CGS Eco Solvent medias in which you print on directly. Such as Shrink, white board, silver, foils, etc. The Transfer is now on its fourth generation being thinner and more flexible. It can be additionally processed to achieve...

Hi Michael, It is the Roland VS300i. Using CGS extended gamut inks, cmykog, plus white and metallic. The inks are fully authorized by Roland. So even though the vs300 is normally CMYK only we created a driver to change light magenta and light cyan to orange and green. Cgs has new software for...

I recommend an upgrade to your ORIS. The support for latest printers and built in spectros and link to automatic certification makes it well worth it. It comes with soft proofing, preflighting, load balancing, email notification on various status triggers, job log (for paper use and waste, time...

Yes.. your Kodak or Fuji Final Proof laminator can be used. Also CGS can provide you with where you can acquire a laminator if you don't have one. It really is rather painless and does not add much time to the process.

No worries.. and call me Bruce! Yes, I was not too clear but the new transfer media is significantly better than past transfer films. Now we have just one film that can go gloss matte or semi-matte and then back to gloss if you want. Very cool technology.

Hi Stephen, CGS has developed a number of medias and one of those is a receptor film that laminates to customers stock. It is of such high quality and low thickness that it is similar to how Kodak Approvals and Fuji Final proofs work. The same laminate donor can be made to produce both gloss...

You should really look at the Roland VSi series. With CGS ORIS Flex Pack and Extended Gamut inks you have a very large gamut and ORIS Flex Pack software gives you much more versatility than the other rip solutions for Roland. The CGS Extended Gamut Inks are fully authorized by Roland. Plus you...

The ink optimization market is alive and kicking! It continues to be a strong market for CGS and in fact is continuing to grow. I don't agree that most companies have a solution as we are getting too many inquiries and subsequent sales for that to be the case. It is especially important for the...

Hi Truetype1, I am sorry you have had troubles. I assume you have contacted our support department? When you delete a file it is deleted from the queue so it sounds like you have some other issue going on. Please contact me or CGS as soon as possible to resolve your issues. Best Regards, Bruce Brown

Any reason you did not consider CGS ORIS? ORIS can meet your requirements plus give you soft-proofing in one package. All queues can be viewed from a simple web browser. Regards, Bruce CGS

We found a program that is most useful as well. It is not exactly for amount of ink by volume but is helpful for seeing benefits of GCR programs, etc. We use it as a 3rd party verification of ORIS Ink Saver. It is called PressPercent and can be found at Excourse PressPerCent...

Hi Magnus, Sorry it took me a while to get this done even though it was an easy test and small files. Real work first! First let me say we don't yet normalize to PDFx4. I will explain what that means in a second. Also let me also say there are a number of options in the PDF Normalizer for...

Hi Magnus, I did not see this until today.. I will download the files and run them both ways and through ORIS's new PDF-PDF engine. I will get back with you. Regards, Bruce (cosnet)

Allison, You did not misspeak. I would add the ORIS allows for all its proprietary color tables to be converted to standard device links not just Press Matcher. I don't troll this site so I missed an earlier question to me about how ORIS Ink Saver integrates with Ink Drop. It is exactly by this...

Hi Ian, Almost all of our customers apply Ink Saver to everything, vector and images. In fact I don't know anyone not doing it to everything. GCR by definition will not harm solid primary or secondary colors or to put it simply, you have to have at least YMC present for GCR to be even considered.

know your stuff know your stuff The problem is for most potential users, you just don't know which solution is good or bad and you don't know how to test it. The files you submit for a sample are not enough as they cannot show the entire potential gamut. What happens if the files are already...

ORIS Ink Saver!

Yes, Many of the systems require preprocessing of files but ORIS has a package through Fuji Film which uses the Ink Drop feature. Note that not all GCR programs are the same and you will find that ORIS gives you the tools to not only create perfect profiles by evaluating graphically the profile...

Kaiser, Note that there are a lot of companies selling GCR programs. Also note that they are NOT all created equal. There are bad things that can happen by some programs (many listed above). Please make sure you do your homework. Some programs are just black boxes sitting in the corner that you...

Hi I am from CGS and can maybe shed some light on this. Taskero and specifically Color Path Verify is based on ORIS Certified Proof. There are some subtle differences and some commonalities. First the GUI is very much like ORIS Certified Proof and the operation is nearly the same. However, from...
