CalderaCare support response times

CalderaCare is the guarantee of timely intervention by our team of technical experts, with response guidelines in place from the moment you create a support request on HelpDesk. You will be given the option to register your request as either critical, major or minor

CRITICAL

Response within 2h

When production is blocked and there’s no existing solution or workaround to your knowledge. 

MAJOR

Response within 4h

When production is still possible but not as efficient as usual, and while a solution exists, it’s not obvious to find or apply.

MINOR

Response within 8h

When your production is not significantly impacted, but your issue still requires a technician. 

Benefit from exclusive features

Your CalderaCare subscription unlocks additional features in CalderaRIP software.

InkPerformer

Reduce ink consumption by up to 35%

No need to redo your ICC profiles to save on ink— once enabled, InkPerformer automatically recalculates a new color combination to reduce ink consumption, improve grey neutrality and reduce production costs. Click here to calculate your return on investment with InkPerformer.

CalderaCare subscriptions include 1 license of InkPerformer for one printer.

Caldera REST API

Connect CalderaRIP with third-party tools to streamline your workflow

The Caldera REST API facilitates the integration of CalderaRIP with third-party applications.

Connecting your RIP to your web shop or ERP software enables a more efficient workflow, and paves the way for automatic job submission, job spooling and job cost tracking.

Caldera REST API

Smart Import

Automate job submission to save time & avoid errors

SmartImport automatically extracts the metadata from the filename, such as the targeted printer, presets, number of copies to print, height, width and scale.

SmartImport unlocks the possibility to automate job submission in CalderaRIP to save time while avoiding errors and reprints.

Print Proof

Improve your customer validation workflow

Once your job is ready to produce, export a TIFF proof after ripping and send it to your customer.

This proof is a preview of the job, and it can be used for validation before production in order to avoid unwanted waste and reprints.
