The iColor® TransferRIP is the magic behind one pass printing with white as an underprint or an overprint. The
most important point of the iColor® TransferRIP software is that it allows colors to be put down in layers.
Regular printer drivers only concern themselves with what the eye sees on the top layer, the RIP allows you to
separately control each layer, thus giving you the ability to control not only what you see, but what is behind
that top layer (typically the white layer). The iColor®
TransferRIP gives you the unique ability to use one
machine to print images with white as an underprint or an overprint. You can now print vibrant colors on clear
or dark media regardless of the background to which it is applied, where the white is put down first and the
colors afterwards. The iColor® TransferRIP ‘Color Mapping’ feature also allows for ‘Reverse Printing’ when
printing and transferring to garments where white is put down last. This is the only way to achieve white
underprint and overprint in one pass, and you will not find another machine on the market today that can do
all of this. The software also allows for color manipulation and removal, cost calculation, rasterization and
advanced layout tools. It comes standard with the iColor® 600 and as an add‐on with the iColor® 500.
To accomplish these two features, UniNet has created two configurations to suit any printing project:
‘A’ Configuration is for right side printing and allows for printing white as an underprint in one pass (typically
used for transparencies, clear labels, dark media or Aqua Clear paper). The black and white cartridges can be
swapped within the first slot depending on your needs. This configuration is for printing standard CMYK
images when the black is installed or CMYW images when white is installed. When the white is installed in the
black slot, this is configured for ‘Right Side Printing’ where the white is printed first, as an underprint, all in one
pass. In this situation, the RIP converts pure K colors to CMY composite black, and puts in white not only as a
background color but also in the image where white or page white is specified.
‘B’ Configuration allows for printing white as an overprint in one pass for reverse printing (typically used for
transfer printing). This configuration calls for a special second set of white and cyan toner and drum
cartridges. For the ‘B’ Configuration, the white cartridge is placed in the last slot (cyan station) and the cyan
cartridge is placed in the first slot (black station) of the printer. The Color Mapping feature explained in this
manual overrides the basic driver of the printer and automatically sends the proper color to the proper
channel. This configuration is for garment printing where white is needed as an overprint, applied on top of all
the other colors. When the image is pressed to the garment, the transfer sheet is flipped over and the white
becomes the underprint.
This is especially important where images have half tones and 100% transfer of the image is an issue or when
there is white in the image that needs to show through for dark colored garments.
