EFI Vutek recently launched EFI Colorproof XF for Flexo, a large-format production solution designed for customers in the packaging industry. Available in M (up to 17˝), XL (18˝-24˝), and XXL (25˝-44˝) output options, Colorproof XF for Flexo is said to create halftone screened inkjet proofs based upon the actual imaging engine used to create proofs. Unique to Colorproof XF, this feature allows customers to achieve challenging dot proofs using inkjet to simulate virtually any packaging scenario.
