Creo bizhub PRESS C6000, User Manual

Page: 10 / 196

System overview
The IC-307 print controller, powered by Creo Color Server
Technology, is an on-demand prepress system that uses
advanced prepress technologies to drive the 80 PPM press and
70/60 PPM press.
The IC-307 print controller enables you to print from computers
running the Microsoft Windows operating system and Apple Mac
OS operating system software. Using raster image processor
(RIP) technology, the IC-307 print controller converts image files in
page-description language (PDL) formats—for example, Adobe
PostScript, PDF, and variable data printing formats—to a suitable
ready-to-print (RTP) format for direct high-quality digital printing.
The IC-307 print controller also streamlines the printing process by
allowing you to print with preset workflows.
In combination with the press, the IC-307 print controller enables
you to efficiently print business cards, print flyers, brochures,
pamphlets, catalogs, short-run trials, and print-on-demand
publications.
The IC-307 print controller combines RIP functionalities,
automation, control tools, and special hardware development
capabilities with Windows-based architecture.
