Do you want the best prints possible?

To make your image prints look their best with your Overdrive RIP, you will need...

Custom RGB profiles!

There are two excellent options below for acquiring custom profiles:

Option #1:

Make custom profiles yourself!

Add i1Profiler RGB 'only' (above for $395) to your ColorBurst OverDrive RIP.

Or, if you buy an X-Rite i1Basic Pro2 system on the same order as OverDrive, get i1Profiler RGB for $100 additionally! Ask us how.

ColorBurst has collaborated with X-Rite to bring you this incredible value. This is the same great (and current) i1Profiler engine that X-Rite sells for much more. This RGB module is not available separately in any form or manner.

    Features:

    • Create beautiful RGB Media profiles for Overdrive RIP only (will not work with other products).
    • Perform CMYK Quality Print Certification with the X-Rite i1Profiler Printer QA Report.
    • Includes i1Profiler Monitor Profiling and Projector Profiling as well.
    • The i1Profiler RGB license will allow the end user to update their legacy i1Pro to i1ProPhoto, or their new i1Pro2 Basic to i1PhotoPro2!!!
    • i1Profiler RGB is software only: No targets are provided. Default targets exist within Overdrive RIP or can be purchased through the CHROMiX or ColorBurst as needed.

    Requirements:

    • You must own either an i1Pro or i1Pro2 spectrophotometer for measuring
    • You must already own Overdrive 2 RIP (ColorBurst will validate eligibility after your CHROMiX purchase)

      -or-

    • You must add both Overdrive 2 RIP and i1Profiler RGB to your order at this time.

-

Option #2:

Have CHROMiX make high quality custom profiles for you remotely! Add ColorValet Pro remote profiling service (above for $179) to your order.

    For those that do not want to make their own RGB profiles for Overdrive, or don't own an i1Pro spectrophotometer, try our ColorValet Pro remote RGB profiling service for $179.00. This is a compelling value! You get UNLIMITED RGB profiles for 18 months for One RGB inkjet printer (using the manufacturers print driver). These are HIGH-Quality ICC profiles that will improve your print output and provide you with a soft-proofing capability unmatched with generic profiles from the paper or inkjet manufacturers. This option can also be added at time of your overdrive purchase or at anytime afterwards.

Notable Features
Overdrive 2 has a new 64-bit architecture for Mac, so it is exceedingly FAST!

Overdrive 2 has a brand new Visual Interface with thumbnails and a Pageview.

Overdrive 2 uses the exact same formula as PhotoShop for Black Point Comp. It's great for Photo printing and it uses the Advanced B&W modes of the Driver.

Overdrive 2 uses the printer's internal calibration for accurate gray balance (only available through the driver).

Overdrive 2 is accurate for Gracol Proofing to 0.78 DE and Pantone matching is excellent due to our ColorBurst AutoSpot.

Overdrive 2 uses All of the RGB profiles from all paper vendors and printer drivers.
Overdrive 2 performs color correction to the Driver's RGB media profile or a custom RGB profile.
Corrected data is sent through the driver w/Color Management Off.

Overdrive 2 has unlimited memory access to Core Graphics (Mac). All placed files generate a thumbnail and a PageView showing the size and position on the page.

Overdrive 2 works on All printers that have a Mac Driver where you can turn off the Driver's Color Management OFF.

Other Features:
Double click on Jobs to Scale & Rotate. Set the Driver once for the paper size, paper mode of roll or sheet and the paper type of Matte, Luster, etc. All of these settings are saved in the ENV (Environment) along with the Job Settings and Profile settings. Overdrive 2 uses the Driver's screening, LUTs and Advanced B&W with ColorBurst's added ease of use and color matching that exceeds the Driver alone. ColorBurst's anti-aliasing makes regular and small type significantly better than the Driver and every bit as good as the original XProof RIPs.
