What InkRIP is (from public Part 1)
AM.CO.ZA InkRIP is RIP software (Raster Image Processor). It translates designs (vector or raster) into a printer-understandable form (e.g. PRN), carrying information such as dots, ICC colour profiles, and enabling features like nesting, tiling (large prints subdivided into panels), and sometimes direct hardware control. It works alongside control software (covered in a follow-on video in the same series).
Branding on tutorials consistently says Software from Advanced Machinery AM.CO.ZA.
Active InkRIP mini-series (indexes on RIP archive / homepage)
Public indexes include:
- Before Starting / Getting Started with InkRIP
- Introduction & Basics (interface, etc.)
- Design Practices — Core Practices
- Job Manager for printing
- Toolbar and its options (shapes, fill, edge & stroke, …)
- Transform imported designs
- Color Manager ICC Profiles (about profiles, spectrophotometer, nozzle cleanliness, parameters, ink limit, linearization, import/export, using a new profile)
- Printer Drivers — install/uninstall, copy/delete, properties, resolutions, custom resolutions, CMYK slot order, import/export drivers
- Layout / nesting features (e.g. MSM nesting, flip/rotate, stack order, equidistant layout, same height/width)
Homepage listings (as of fetch) were heavily weighted toward recent InkRIP ICC profile and printer driver parts — the catalogue is actively growing in this area (dates into 2026 visible on public pages).
