Our customers love CalderaCare

CalderaRIP is very strong, rarely crashes and runs well, it handles PDFs much better than my other RIP. The main reason I stick with CalderaCare is the superb customer support.

I’ve never had to worry about waiting for a response from the team at Caldera. They are very prompt with figuring out a solution for us based on the problems we are presenting.

It’s great to know that if our Caldera goes down and we can’t produce anything that I get support via CalderaCare and they will get someone on it with urgency. I have contacted them in the past and they have been amazing with support and answering questions.

Get priority support

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 icon

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.

Automate job submission to the RIP

SmartImport automatically extracts metadata (number of copies, targeted printer, presets, height, width, scale) from the filename to automate job submission and processing, save time and reduce manual errors.

PrintProof in CalderaRIP
Improve customer validation workflow

Use PrintProof to export high-quality TIFF proofs of your jobs after ripping, and send them to your customers before production to avoid unwanted waste.

Cut transparent film more accurately

Easily setup white or transparent cut marks with a colored background to improve mark detection and cutting accuracy on transparent films.

Grouped material assignation

Easily assign a material to an entire media category in EasyMedia, instead of individual printer media, to save time configuring your cutting processes.

Caldera REST API

Connect CalderaRIP with third-party tools

Use the REST API to connect CalderaRIP with a webshop or ERP, and benefit from a more efficient workflow with automatic job submission, job spooling and cost tracking.

Collect key data from your print production (loaded media, ink containers, waste containers, printer heaters) and analyze them in your ERP/e-commerce solution.

InkPerformer

Save up to 25% ink

No need to redo your ICC profiles to save on ink! InkPerformer automatically calculates a new color combination to decrease the amount of ink printed on the substrate, without compromising color accuracy.

One InkPerformer license for one printer is included in CalderaCare. Click here to calculate your ROI with InkPerformer.
