About Type of Device Profile

Software

July 8, 2021


This page is the explaination of the device profiles used by RasterLink series.

Device profile is provided by the combination of printer, ink set, material such as media, and printing conditions such as resolution and pass numbers.

Generic Profile

Profile with "Generic"

The profiles for general purpose.
Please use these profiles when manufacture or Media name are not specified.
ex.) Generic PVC Gloss

Target Printers: UCJV300/150 series
Target Inks: LUS-170, LUS-175


Version of Device Profile

There are two versions of device profiles for RasterLink series.

v2 Profile

Profile extension is [cot].
Annotated "v2" in the media name.
The v2 profile can be used by RasterLink5 or earlier RIP software.

Profile creation software: MimakiProfileMasterII

v3 Profile

Profile extension is [icc].
Annotated "v3" in media name.
v3 profiles are basically(*1) used by RasterLink6 or later RIP software.
*1 There are also some profiles that can be used by RasterLink5 depending on the versions. Please refer to the description of v3.x below.

[v3 - v3.4] Profile creation software: MimakiProfileMasterII
[v3.5] Profile creation software: MimakiProfileMaster3



About Media Name Types of v3 Profile


For v3 Profile, different types of device profiles are available depending on the concept differences and versions.
The types are divided by the symbol at the end of media name.

v3.x Profile

There are several versions of "v3.x" profiles.
The versions are appended with "v3.x" at the end of media name.
The profiles which appended nothing at the end of media names are "v3.3" or later.
RasterLink5 just can support "v3" "v3.1" profiles, not include "v3.2" or later.
All the "v3" profiles can be used by RasterLink6 or later.

v3 - v3.4 Profile

Recommend setting "Color Matching" to "Default" in RasterLink when use v3 - v3.4 Profiles (Figure 1)

v3.5 Profile

Recommend setting "Color Matching" to "Mimaki_Expand_Color" in RasterLink when use v3.5 profiles or later (Figure2)

Profile Version with "_D"


The profiles are designed to raise the overall density based on the concept of emphasizing density.
ex.) GPVC[441]_D v3

Target Printers: JV33 series, JV5 series, JV300/150 series, CJV300/150 series
Target Inks: SS21, HS, Sublimation53, Sublimation54
RIP Supporte Versions: RL5 Verxxx or later

Profile Version with "_S"

The profiles are designed to reduce the density based on the concept of ink consumption reduction.
ex.) Mimaki GPVC[SPC706] -S

Target Printers: JV300/150 series, CJV300/150 series
Target Inks: SS21
RIP Supporte Versions: RL6 or later

Profile Version with "Quality"

The profiles are designed to fill the dots in gaps to reduce grainness based on the concept of image quality improvement.
Recommend selecting "Default" mode in "Color Matching" of RasterLink.
ex.) Mimaki GPVC[SPC706] Quality

Target Printers: JV300/150 series, CJV300/150 series, JFX500-2131
Target Inks: SS21, Sublimation54, BS3, LH-100

Profile Version with "sp"

The profiles are designed to fill the dots in gaps to reduce grainness based on the concept of image quality improvement.
Recommend selecting "Mimaki_Expand_Color" mode in "Color Matching" of RasterLink.
Use more Small dots and realize a smooth expression in photographic images.
ex.) Mimaki GPVC[SPC706] v3.5sp

Target Printers: JV300/150 series, CJV300/150 series
Target Inks: SS21
RIP Supporte Versions: Ver4.11 or later

Profile Version with "br"

The profiles are designed based on the concept of banding reduction.
Use more Large dots to reduce banding (Bi direction banding, streak banding etc.)
The profiles are suitbal for the data with many solid images.
ex.) Mimaki GPVC[SPC706] v3.5br

Target Printers: JV300/150 series, CJV300/150 series
Target Inks: SS21
RIP Supporte Versions: Ver4.11 or later

Profile Version with "nr"
