i1Basic Pro 3

Ideal for use with third-party RIPs and software and for creating profiles for HD/HDR monitors
i1Basic Pro 3 is a flexible solution for creating professional monitor and projector profiles, quality control of monitors and printers and measuring spot colors. Also designed for working with RIPs and third-party software, i1Basic Pro 3 is an important tool in a color management ecosystem.

i1Basic Pro 3 Plus

Ideal for use with third-party RIPs and software when printing on specific substrates and creating profiles for HD/HDR monitors
i1Basic Pro 3 Plus offers the same features as the i1Basic Pro 3 solution, but with a larger measurement aperture. It can be used with third-party RIPs and software to create printer profiles for difficult-to-profile materials, such as textiles, canvas, ceramics, foils and other backlit materials. With its longer ruler and pad, i1Basic Pro 3 Plus supports larger test targets, making it ideal for large and super-wide format printers.

i1Publish Pro 3

Ideal for profiling in a complete workflow – from concept to print
i1Publish Pro 3 is designed for prepress, digital printing, photography and design professionals who require absolute color accuracy throughout their digital workflow, from displays, scanners and projectors to RGB and CMYK printers, extended color gamut printers and printing presses. This solution includes QA (Quality Assurance) features to check soft proofs and output quality, features to compensate for optical brighteners and easily adapt to non-standard viewing conditions, and DeviceLink to accurately convert the source color space to the target color space to stabilize the printing process and/or save ink during CMYK conversion.

i1Publish Pro 3 Plus

Ideal for profiling in a complete workflow – from concept to print – on specific substrates
i1Publish Pro 3 Plus offers the same features as the i1Publish Pro 3 solution, but with a larger measurement aperture. It is designed for creating printer profiles on difficult to profile materials such as textiles, canvas, ceramics, foils and other backlit materials. With its longer ruler and longer base, i1Publish Pro 3 Plus supports larger test targets, making it ideal for large and super-wide format printers.

i1iO for the i1Pro 3 / i1Pro 3 Plus

Automation for Color Perfectionists
Manually measuring test charts for color profiling and color checking is time-consuming and error-prone. The i1iO is an automatic chart measuring system for photographers, designers and print service providers who want to avoid the hassle of manually reading color test strips. This new model is specifically designed for the i1Pro 3 Plus and offers an easy way to increase functionality and versatility and speed up the measuring process.

In combination, i1O and the i1Pro 3 Plus are an unbeatable team.

In no time at all, the i1Pro 3 Plus integrated into the i1iO scanning table ensures the highest color precision on a wide range of printing and packaging substrates, including thin films, labels, cardboard, fabrics, photo paper and plastics. You benefit from profiling functions galore!
