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). ## Other RIP/print software in the same archive Extensive **SAi FlexiPRINT RTUV 22** mini-series: text tools, cloud, colour swatches/custom colours, object arrangement, transformations, contour cutting, guides, selection, path tool, job/client/statistics, bitmaps, preferences, extra features, effects, etc. Also contour-cut and related FlexiPRINT content. ## Relevance Primary public how-to track for AM.CO.ZA **print / RIP** software customers; complements machinery lines that ship with InkRIP rather than CNC CAM.
