Epson SpectroProofer
The Epson SpectroProofer is the optional online measurement solution from Epson. There are two generations of measurement heads:
ILS20
The ILS20 is the first generation and can only be used on compatible Epson Stylus Pro engines (4900, 7890, 7900, 9890, and 9900). It is available with or without a fixed UV cut filter.
QMS will recognize whether the ILS20 has a UV-cut filter or not. UV cut will be labeled as M2 otherwise M0.
ILS30
The ILS30 supports measurement conditions (M0, M1, and M3) and it is compatible with all Epson Stylus Pro (4900, 7890, 7900, 9890, 9900) and SureColor P series (5000, 6000, 7000, 8000, 9000, 7500, 9500).
NOTE: The SpectroProofer framework can be mounted on newer devices. The SureColor devices only accept ILS30 measurement heads.
Configuration
Prior to measurement, the SpectroProofer always dries the ink. This enhances measurement consistency and keeps the automatic ruler mechanism clean. Although the pigment prints seem dry, this does not imply that the color is permanent. The recommended level is 300 seconds, but it is safe to reduce it to 150 seconds. Apogee does not allow to reduce the level lower than 75 seconds.
To change the drying time, use the Apogee Client Configuration settings of the relevant Proofer TP as displayed below.
