Also available as a plugin for Adobe Photoshop.
One issue had been dogging professional photographers and designers till date. That has also been solved, thanks to Hewlett-Packard and DreamWorks Animation.
The two majors have unveiled a new technology that will help professional photographers and designers print the exact colors they see on their monitor. Christened HP DreamColor, the technology will be integrated from creation through printing. It will also enable designers to print accurate color proofs of what they can expect to see in a final product for large-scale commercial projects, said a report.
HP's joint efforts with DreamWorks to develop colour calibration technology for Shrek, has given birth to the technology. The animated film series stood out with vibrant colours and the new colour sync technology came up trumps. It will now be available in the HP Designjet Z2100 (8-ink) and Z3100 (12-ink) photo printers, which will both feature built-in spectrophotometers. It will also be available in the form of an HP plug-in for Adobe Photoshop 7.0, CS and CS2 applications for printing directly from the photo-editing application to the HP Photosmart Pro B9180 pigment ink photo printer, the report said.
HP's Indigo 5000 and ws4500 presses will also be integrated with the software, which HP says will produce colour prints better than or equal to the color quality of commercial offset printers. HP IndiChrome software will allow accurate viewing and production of Pantone colors, according to HP, it added.
With this the problem faced by professionals and amateurs have been wiped off. The release of HP DreamColor technology into HP's digital-imaging products will initially be at the professional level, the report added.
