(SEATTLE, WA) Express Imaging Systems, LLC has
achieved a 20% improvement in silver halide print image quality
using the latest in LED/LCD based technology in its RA4 printer,
the Europa 10. High scores were earned during DIMA 2006 judging,
with improvements in every category, representing a quality
rating 26% higher than its nearest competitor. The Europa
10 remains the unchallenged quality champion in the RA4 Industrial
High Speed 4” x 6” image quality category.
In 2005 the Europa 10 printer, with proprietary
LED/LCD lamphouse technology, won the DIMA shoot out in the
RA4 Industrial High Speed 4” x 6” printer category
beating the FastPrint 20, based on Texas Instruments DLP line
printing technology. Text and edge detail were among the most
significant improvements visible to the naked eye when Europa
10 prints were compared.
Each year at PMA a panel of expert judges scores
the overall quality of the submitted digital print and compares
the accuracy of color against a “target” print.
According to DIMA, a new quantitative element was added to
the judging process this year. A Gretag Macbeth Color Checker
with known values was embedded into the DIMA Target File,
which was measured to determine the delta E of the actual
value. Prints in the DIMA ShootOut are judged on important
quality criteria, such as neutral gray balance reproduction,
saturation, shadow depth and quality, overall tonality and
detail, highlights and specular highlights, flesh tones, hue
shift and text.
