X-Rite releases “twice as fast” third-gen i1Pro 3

X-Rite Incorporated and Pantone LLC have introduced the third-generation of its i1 family of colour management solutions for the print, imaging and photo industries.

Said to be two times faster than its predecessor, the redesigned i1Pro 3 spectrophotometer is ideal for professionals who require accurate colour from their printer, display and projector. Customers can use the i1Pro 3 to better track and verify monitor and print quality and capture spot colour measurements.

“For more than 10 years the i1Pro Family has been the go-to solution for imaging professionals who require accurate color profiling,” said Ray Cheydleur, Printing and Imaging Product Portfolio Manager, X-Rite. “The third-generation i1Pro takes colour management to the next level by significantly improving on device speed and supporting new high brightness display requirements. With the i1Pro 3, colour professionals can quickly and easily incorporate color standards across all digital devices and print production equipment for repeatable and predictive color management.”

X-Rite explains the new i1Pro 3: Offers a full-spectrum LED light source for single-pass scanning; measures M0, M1, and M2 simultaneously in a single pass while accounting for optical brighteners; reads smaller patch sizes (6 mm x 6 mm) twice as fast as the i1Pro 2 with improved accuracy; achieves correct calibration on ultra-bright displays (up to 5K NITs); and optimizes automated file creation with the option to include the new i1iO Automated Scanning Table for i1Pro 3.
