Cambridge UK, 24 August 2016:\u2014 Global Graphics\u2019 embedded Harlequin RIP\u00ae has been chosen by Korean manufacturer Sindoh for a new range of multi-function office printers (MFPs) that will be sold in Korea, China, South Africa and the Middle East, with expansion into the European market already underway.<\/p>\n
Sindoh is a total business solution enterprise that builds MFPs, copiers and software solutions to create a better office environment, is the dominant player in Korea and has plans for global expansion since establishing itself in the United States in 2012. Global Graphics is the developer of the Harlequin\u00ae RIP engine that provides high-performance rendering of page description languages for a wide range of printing devices from single function office printers to the latest generation of high-volume inkjet devices.<\/p>\n
Models in Sindoh\u2019s N400 and N600 mono series combine scanning, fax, mobile printing from Air print, NFC and Android mobile scan\/print with either a 5 inch or 9 inch touch panel. They print at speeds of up to 45 pages per minute and use Harlequin, the industry\u2019s highest performing renderer, to process page description languages (PDLs) including PCL XL, PCL 5e, PS, as well as PDF for direct printing. Global Graphics worked with its SoC (system on a chip) partner Marvell and Harlequin is embedded onto the Marvell 88PA6170 SoC designed for color and mono single function and multi-function printers that support scanning as well as multiple printing technologies.<\/p>\n
Global Graphics provided URW++ font suites with the Harlequin RIP. All fonts are URW original designs and support the full Latin character complement. Additional fonts include character sets for Arabic and Hebrew.<\/p>\n
ByoungBag Lee, Sindoh’s CTO said, “Integrating the new PDL emulation of the latest Harlequin Embedded software into Sindoh\u2019s new A3 Mono MFP was undoubtedly a great decision. Sindoh is satisfied with Global Graphics\u2019 proactive technical support and the improved performance of version 4.2 of Harlequin Embedded software, which ultimately led to a successful development of an affordable high speed A3 MFP of 45ppm to our customers. In addition, Sindoh was able to benefit from the continued partnership between Marvell\u2019s SoC and Global Graphics\u2019 PDL-emulation, which enabled us to apply a globalized standard technology and to achieve a quality standard that meets Sindoh\u2019s expectations at a very competitive cost. Through close technical collaboration with Sindoh\u2019s color printer \/ MFP product development with Global Graphics, we look forward to launching more competitive products in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n
Justin Bailey, Global Graphics\u2019 VP of sales said, \u201cWe are delighted to count Sindoh among our customers and are pleased that they will benefit from the continual investments we make in our technology. Our ability to supply the industry\u2019s fastest renderer on the latest generation of SoC through our partnership with Marvell, plus a package of URW++ fonts makes us a very compelling proposition for printer manufacturers because they can achieve their goals for speed and quality and keep the cost of their bill of materials under control. We wish Sindoh well in their global expansion.\u201d<\/p>\n
The embedded version of the Harlequin RIP is ported onto the embedded controller inside printing devices. Its architecture gives manufacturers flexibility and reduces their development costs and time to market. Manufacturers can license one or any combination of page description languages – PCL 5C, PCL 5e, PCL 6, PS\u00ae, PDF and XPS \u2013 add their own or a third party\u2019s color management or screening, have a wide choice of font options, and achieve high-performance even with low resource usage. It supports a wide range of SoCs and development environments.<\/p>\n
