We’ve been using Caldera RIP software for about 10 to 15 years, and we’re very happy with the customizability it offers. Our operators are constantly changing their preferences in color management and Caldera caters to this. It allows us to achieve color consistency over both locations, which is very important to us. Caldera allows us to keep our offerings at a consistently high quality.

Regarding the finished product on the print side, color and repeatability are paramount, and this is where Caldera comes in. Although Caldera is performing well, we are always looking to extract the most benefit from the software, so it’s a work in progress – and as we add new products and new customers, the software is growing with us.

Communicating our story requires a lot of printing in all our stores, with constantly changing point-of-sale advertising material. Our advertising and in-store communication can change on a daily basis, and Caldera allows us to respond quickly to the demands of the business. We need Caldera for its quality – it provides us with a finished product that is impeccable.

Caldera is perfect in workflow, ripping, printing, cutting and packaging. I have worked with Caldera software for over ten years now, and there’s never been an end to learning what the software is capable of.

Caldera is the best program in the market right now. It is extremely fast, stable, completely user-friendly and has a great interface. I am often approached by manufacturers to use other workflows and I choose Caldera every time.

Having a single RIP driving our operation and interacting without problems with our workflow means that we’ve cut costs across the board. Caldera’s partner strategy means that new drivers and modules are in continuous development, so we are certain we’ve got a software backbone that is ready for whatever is thrown at us on a given day.

We are a small, fast-growing e-commerce company mainly selling to private individuals. As we have a large flow of files to print every day, PrimeCenter is a very good software for us. We use it to organize files ordered via our webshop. It has simplified our work considerably. We drag the files into the recipe and it’s basically ready-to-print. The next step will be to implement an autoflow for the files to go through PrimeCenter, then through CalderaRIP to be printed automatically.

PrimeCenter is compatible with any RIP and cutter controllers that support PDF file formats. When different input image files come in, PrimeCenter preflights & nests them into ready-for-production layouts. It doesn’t replace the RIP, but it’s far more effective to prepare files & prevent issues at the production stage.  

We use PrimeCenter to prepare artworks before submitting them to CalderaRIP for printing. We are happy with PrimeCenter’s integration into our workflow. It has helped with our file manipulation and setup prior to the printing process. Two improvements that we have noticed right away were nesting complicated files and shapes more efficiently to save media, and visually inspecting for cut paths in the Studio window. The fixups are also a life-saver.

Our customers love PrimeCenter— it’s the missing piece between our prepress workflow solutions and their RIP, and the ideal tool to optimize nesting automatically while preparing cutting operations. Powerful, fast and fully customizable, PrimeCenter is perfect for digital printers who wish to optimize their media usage and fleet of printers.
