SR6 – RasterLink6 and RasterLink6 Plus RIP software

RasterLink6 and RasterLink6 Plus RIP software – Mimaki – SR6

The Mimaki RasterLink6 RIP software (ref. SR6-011, SR6-012, SR6-013) and its RasterLink6 Plus version (ref. SR6-025) prepare print files (RIP – Raster Image Processor) and control Mimaki plotters.

RasterLink6 manages colours using ICC profiles. The main settings are accessible via icons within a single window, making it easy to get started. The programme and profiles can be updated free of charge via the internet from the Mimaki website.

The software core is identical: RasterLink6 Plus is available free of charge as an upgrade from RasterLink6 and adds support for additional machines, consecutive cutting (ID Cut) and Braille printing.
