FilmMaker v10

PRECISION SCREENING. PERFECT DENSITY. SUPERIOR FILM OUTPUT

FilmMaker 10 RIP software provides an professional ink-jet screen print film production toolset. FilmMaker’s combination of precision screening, optimum density levels, ease of use, as well as a visual job management interface streamline your production workflow, resulting in time and cost savings while creating top quality screen print film on most widely used inkjet printers.

Decide which version of FilmMaker to choose:

  -  DTP+ works with Epson 17" or smaller printers

  -  XL+ works with Epson 24″ or wider, roll-fed printers

GET UP & RUNNING INSTANTLY WITH THE SETUP WIZARD

Designed for first time users, the printer/queue setup wizard enables quick and easy printer, ink and media setup using a simple step by step procedure.

VISUAL PRODUCTION MANAGER™

Simultaneous, multiple printer, multiple queue job management support. Manage all production aspects in a single, intuitive production management console. VPM includes all required job preparation, scheduling and print setting options required to produce professional ink jet screen print films.

THE LARGEST SELECTION OF SUPPORTED PRINTERS

Specially designed custom printer drivers supporting more printer manufacturers and models than any other ink jet screen print film RIP software. From desktop to wide format printers by Epson™, Canon™, Ricoh™, Mutoh™, Roland™ and many more. FilmMaker also includes a “direct to driver” printing option which enables separations to be sent directly to any Windows-based printer driver already installed on the workstation thereby extending support to all printers used on Windows™ operating systems.

MULTIPLE CHANNEL BLACK INK SUPPORT

FilmMaker supports a variety of black ink configurations. Use the factory default printer manufacturer ink and black ink channel(s) or utilize any ink channel in your printer with third-party black inks.

PERFECT DENSITY EVERY TIME USING THE INK DENSITY TEST PAGE WIZARD

Achieve optimum density levels with a single test print regardless of which ink/film combination is being used.

HIGHEST QUALITY PRECISION SCREENING

Filmmaker includes CADlink’s unique screening algorithms that provide exceptional quality within finely detailed, mid-tone, gradient, shadow as well as highlight areas. Utilizing true variable dot printing support (multiple sized dots within the same cell), FilmMaker provides unmatched screened output.

ELIMINATE MOIRE PATTERNS AND ACHIEVE THE HIGHEST POSSIBLE LPI LEVELS WITH JITTER™

When applied alongside FilmMaker’s default screening methods, Jitter™ provides a simple and flexible way in which to modify halftone screens in order to print screens in excess of 150 LPI using only inkjet printer technology.

COMPLETE HALFTONE CONTROLS

Apply halftones directly to jobs using frequency, angle and shape settings or enable the "application halftoning" option to utilize halftones already applied to files within third-party applications.

IN-RIP SEPARATIONS

FilmMaker will automatically detect incoming jobs that have been processed as separations in 3rd party software applications. Alternatively, for files that have not been previously separated, InRIP separations will identify all process as well as spot color planes within the file and automatically create separations.
