Whenever a digital printing system is installed, there is an opportunity to improve its performance. ColorGATE Digital Output Solutions GmbH has announced the launch of version 25 of its print data generation and colour management software, alongside the introduction of new product solutions: the Core Productionserver family, and the Simulation and Proofing Package.
These solutions will be showcased at FESPA Global Print Expo 2025 in Berlin from May 6-9. Available from May 13, 2025, Version 25 of Productionserver and Filmgate elevates digital print workflows to new heights. Built around the principles of smarter automation, improved performance, and maximum versatility, Productionserver 25 introduces advanced multipage PDF handling, improved proofing tools, and expanded device support, now supporting more than 2000+ drivers. Productionserver 25 also includes the latest Adobe PDF Print Engine 6.4, ensuring future-proof compatibility and optimised workflows.
To streamline and better address varying customer needs, ColorGATE is introducing the Core Productionserver product family, available from Version 25 onward.
– Core Productionserver S: a competitively priced entry-level solution, ideal for small businesses and users operating a single entry-level printer.
– Core Productionserver M: a mid-tier option for print shops with growing workflow demands, offering access to larger format and flatbed printers along with essential modules for colour control.
– Core Productionserver L: a high-end solution for highly productive print shops requiring maximum flexibility, partly automated workflows, and scalability, including support for superwide and hybrid machines.
– This product family replaces former editions such as Flexline and Productionserver Light, simplifying customer choices.
In combination with Core Productionserver M, the new Simulation and Proofing Package replaces the previous Proofgate software. It delivers a streamlined, modern proofing solution that integrates seamlessly into everyday production workflows. Key features include the Proof Standard Digital Module for accurate simulation of real print conditions, Device Link Profiler for consistent colour management, and 1-Bit-TIFF input support. Enhancements in Version 25 make proofing more automated, including full support for Epson printers with integrated measurement devices and new compatibility with the DYMO LabelWriter 550.
