Roland DG Australia has introduced a new colour Emulation Tool that allows end users to closely match the output colours from two different printers.

The free tool, that can be accessed from the Roland Profile Centre, has two levels. 

Printer Emulation Basic, which is designed for colour matching between Roland DG devices, and does not require any profiling or colour management tools. Existing RML (Roland Media Library) profiles are uploaded to the Roland Profile Centre, where they are adjusted by calculation, with new RML profiles automatically generated.

"This level does not factor in the current condition of the printer, and how well it is working, therefore this needs to be taken into consideration when using Printer Emulation Basic," says Roland DG.

The second level, Printer Emulation Advanced, is designed for colour matching between Roland DG and non-Roland DG printers, and requires users to have a photo spectrometer. Users print out a colour chart for each printer and measure with their spectrometer, these RML profiles are then adjusted, with new profiles generated.

The Colour Emulation Tool is now available at the Roland Profile Centre: https://rolandprofilecentre.com.au/
