Roland versaworks 5.5 download#īe sure to download the installer from the dedicated download site and perform the update.By Roland DGA Product Manager of Digital Print Products, Daniel Valade *² The cut contour creation/editing function (Job Assistant) is not included in the Online Updater distributed from the Roland NET server. I recently reloaded my computer, from the operating system (Win10), on up. The Color Management Properties section of VersaWorks can be a bit of a mystery to a lot of users. I have CorelDraw Graphics Suite, and VersaWorks 5.5.1, which I use to feed my Roland VersaCamm SP300V. Now that I have my system all set up again, I find that I can export any of my previously created files, as an eps file, and it will cut just fine. Too often, this section is ignored by operators, sacrificing image quality out of ignorance. So, let’s stand at the edge of the color management rabbit hole and look down, hopefully without falling in!īefore we look too closely at the specifics of color management, let’s define a few terms so we can better understand what is going on. Gamut – The range of colors a printer is capable of reproducing. So, a color that is “in gamut” can be printed, but an “out of gamut” color cannot be reproduced by the printer. Simulation Target Profiles –The color spaces that the image has been created in. These define the colors in the design phase of the image. For example, Adobe Illustrator uses sRGB and US SWOP as the RGB and CMYK color spaces as their defaults. Matching Method – Also called “Rendering Intent”, this is the method that VersaWorks uses to handle out of gamut colors in an image. When selecting a Preset in the Color Management section of the Quality Settings in VersaWorks, you are essentially selecting preconfigured combinations of Simulation Target Profiles and Rendering Intents that will be used to output the image. Think of it as “image optimization” of your file, depending on the output objective (color accuracy or impact). Simply choose the Preset from the drop-down list and click on “Properties” to view the specific configuration as indicated below. Simulation Target Profiles – In this section, the objective would be to select target profiles that match the color spaces used when the design was created, for maximum color fidelity.

For example, Adobe Illustrator defaults to sRGB as it’s RGB color space and USWebCoatedSWOP for CMYK. Colorimetric – This rendering intent simply looks at the image and pulls any out of gamut color back into gamut.Matching Method – There are several rendering intents to choose from, but typically only two are used: Therefore, you would want to set your target profiles to match. It will find the nears reproduceable color that is in gamut and substitute the out of gamut color for that. It does not change the saturation or hues of any in gamut colors in the image.

Perceptual – This rendering intent is used for raster (photographic) images where the relationships between colors is more intimate.For this reason, it is most commonly used for vector files in images, where the colors are not as closely related to each other. Preserve Primary Colors – This selection, if available, will allow the user to prohibit color management from changing primary colors, like 100% yellow.Perceptual will also pull out of gamut colors into gamut, but at the same time it will adjust the saturations and hues of in gamut colors in order to maintain a more “natural” look to the image.

Use Embedded ICC Profile – This selection will tell VersaWorks to override its own settings in favor of a profile supplied by the designer (monitor profiles, etc).

Pro Tip – When setting up your color management selections, try using the new True Rich Color preset. As you can see from the choices, True Rich Color is similar to Pre-Press General except for the CMYK Target Profile, which is changed to Roland DGWideGamut_CMYK. Roland DGWideGamut_CMYK is an expanded CMYK color gamut that was created in order to maximize the vibrancy of Roland DG inks. True Rich Color will provide greater color from a CMYK image. However, it may sacrifice some color accuracy.
