The only RIP that is optimised for speed and Color accuracy.. 

Express Harlequin RIP Option

You can purchase options for the Express RIP to dramatically improve the performance, add screening for your application, and add features like trapping, simple imposition, die-line export, and CIP3 output.

Performance Options

The 3 Performance options for the Express Harlequin RIP will allow the Express RIP to fully utilize the computer’s resources and dramatically increase the throughput for multiple-page and variable data documents.

For Multiple-Page Document

If you are printing a multiple-page document, the Max Thread and Harlequin Parallel Pages options allow full utilization of computing threads to process more than a page at a time.

For Variable Data Document

If you are printing variable data documents, the Max ThreadHarlequin Parallel Pages and Harlequin VariData options will provide the best performance by caching the static elements and ripping only the variable elements, at more than one page simultaneously. As an example, a variable data job with 4 records per page and a total of 10,000 pages will take 1 hour and 17 min to process on a standard Express RIP with no options added. The same job will take 11 min only with all 3 options enabled.
