User manual KONICA MINOLTA IC-304 PLUS BROCHURE

[. . . ] IC-304 Plus ­ Colour, productivity, performance In close cooperation Creo and Konica Minolta created the IC-304 Plus external print controller. [. . . ] Element-based ripping in the IC-304 Plus means that each image, text or graphic element is individually ripped just once for repeated use as required. This speeds up the creation process and increases throughput. Seamless offset connectivity Supporting the CT/LW format as well as TiFF/TiFF-IT, the IC-304 Plus print controller fully integrates with workflow systems like Kodak Brisque and provides seamless connectivity to Kodak Prinergy, as well. Thanks to its complete integration with these high performance workflow systems the IC-304 Plus bridges the gap between the digital printing and offset machines.
