Onyx ProductionHouse 7
ONYX ProductionHouse takes the headache out of keeping your grand format and flatbed printers calibrated and printing at optimal color output performance, saving you both time and money.
With ProductionHouse, you’ll get one easy solution to all of your production needs with a quick return on investment.
The ProductionHouse feature set was specifically designed to solve all of your biggest pains—avoiding production downtime, achieving better color, and holding onto a loyal customer base.
No matter what printers you have, or how many, ProductionHouse will increase your productivity, give you better color, and help you increase your business.
Easy-to-Use Universal Workflow Solution
How many different software RIPs does your shop use? More than one is too many! If you have different RIPs for different print devices, then who is your expert on each RIP? How do you get the same results across multiple print devices? With Onyx ProductionHouse, you have one easy workflow that gets you great colour on all of your devices. All of your jobs follow the same easy workflow and all of your printer operators use this same easy workflow, regardless of output device.
Pre-flight Puts It All at Your Fingertips
Pre-flight is easy to navigate and easy to use because key actions and controls are located in the main tabs. Pre-flight also shows you final output colours on your screen, saving you the hassle of having to print in order to see the final colours of each job.
Integrated Colour Management
Onyx ProductionHouse gives you integrated colour management for all of your printers. Instead of relying on an external third-party CMM, ProductionHouse has a fully integrated colour management system specifically designed for large and grand format printing. The included Media Manager tool provides quality and consistency by offering a system of controls such as ink and media configurations, calibration and profile management.
Web Portal for Web-Based Print Job Management
Manage your print jobs from any computer on your network with a web browser. You can also submit jobs from a PC, Mac, or Unix-based compatible web browser on your network.
Reliable High-Production Throughput
When you simply cannot afford to have your printers offline - for even a short time - you can’t afford to be without ProductionHouse. You’ll find Onyx Workflow products in more high-production environments than any other RIP product.
Precision Screening Patterns
In addition to dot patterns like Stochastic and Error Diffusion, ProductionHouse offers a wide range of screen dot patterns that simulate traditional screen printing. ProductionHouse comes with a set of default screens for silk screening, newsprint, and SWOP®. You can also create your own screening dot patterns with custom dot size, screen angle, and frequency. Use these features to create precise rosette screens or take advantage of other proprietary screening technologies including Line Screen, Smooth Screen, and Ordered Dither screening.
