Sawgrass Technologies Debuts Mac OS SubliJet®-R Sublimation Printing Solution

The Consumer Division of Sawgrass Technologies Inc. — a Charleston, S.C.-based developer of digital
printing technologies — has introduced a SubliJet®-R sublimation printing solution for Ricoh Aficio
GX7000 and Ricoh Aficio GX e3300N inkjet printers that is compatible with Apple’s Mac operating
system (Mac OS). The Ricoh Aficio GX7000 and GX e3300N are business-class sublimation printing
platforms that use Ricoh’s GelSprinter technology and deliver up to 144 sublimation transfers per
hour.

SubliJet-R is a high-viscosity gel sublimation ink used to print on polyester fabrics or
articles that have a polymer coating. According to Sawgrass, the ink produces premium, full-color
images that will not crack, peel or wash away. The Mac OS solution enables Mac users to personalize
and customize a variety of consumer products using full-color and photographic images. It includes
MacProfile, a color management software bundle that is designed to work with Adobe® Photoshop®,
Illustrator® and Photoshop Elements. MacProfile is International Color Consortium (ICC)-profile
optimized; and includes Sawgrass’s Palette Swatch Library and Proofing Palette, which offer exact
color matching when used together, Sawgrass reports.
