New! Next Generation Technology Technical Services Consulting

Global Graphics' next generation driver-based, embedded and server-based RIP solutions provide printer manufacturers with scalable options that can be implemented across your entire product range, from low-end desktop units through high-end print servers and including legacy devices and workflows. Based on a common architecture, these solutions support the native processing of multiple Page Description Languages for faster performance and more accurate file rendition and can also be used as part of a scalable consumption solution to manage the flow of data to output devices to facilitate efficient printing.

SoHo devices (Small office, Home office)

Build your XPS printer driver or other host-based Page Description Language (PDL) rendering solutions using the Harlequin® Host Renderer SDK, based on Global Graphics' next generation technology. This SDK can be configured to support a wide range of raster devices and minimizes their unit cost. For digital print devices with onboard PDL support, but restricted in-device resources, a Scalable Consumption solution can be used as a means of optimizing the flow of data to the device to facilitate efficient printing.

Office printers / MFPs

Minimize the unit cost of your devices by offering embedded controller capabilities with small footprint and low memory requirements using the Harlequin® Embedded SDK. Performance is optimized to meet your hardware and platform environments.

Convenience digital printers / MFPs

In an embedded multi-function, environment, Global Graphics' next-generation Harlequin Embedded SDK offers a high performance, cost-effective solution with minimal time-to-market. Its stability, integrity and robustness gives you the confidence to dedicate your project time on other tasks.

Wide format printing

Global Graphics' RIPs produce high-quality output across a broad range of devices. A wide variety of screening and color management solutions are available with the Harlequin® RIP, including tiling from Simple Imposition. The Jaws® RIP is incorporated into some of the industry's best-known software applications running wide and grand format devices.

Digital presses

For high-volume production environments, the JDF-enabled Harlequin RIP has the power and performance to drive digital presses at full speed. Many processes are handled in this JDF-enabled RIP: trapping, simple imposition, font emulation, color management. Harlequin® Print Production Manager™ (PPM™) provides easy-to-use job management.

PDF

Integrate PDF creation, viewing, mark-up, manipulation into your application or workflow solutions with Global Graphics' PDF Software Development Kits (SDKs). The Harlequin RIP offers support for PDF/X-1a:2003, PDF/X-3:2003 and PDF/X-4 and you can produce PDF/X-1a and PDF/X-3 compliant output using the award winning Jaws PDF Creator®. Global Graphics' eDocument Library provides one powerful SDK for PDL conversion, optimization and manipulation.
