X-Rite’s MonacoOPTIXXR Receives Key Industry Recognition
PMA, BOOTH J-101, Las Vegas, NV -- February 13, 2004 -- X-Rite, Incorporated (NASDAQ:XRIT) today announced its MonacoOPTIXXR has been awarded Photo Electronic Imaging (PEI) Magazine’s “Cool2” Award for its Color Management Hardware category, and recognized by PC World Magazine with a “Best Buy” nod for monitor calibration. Both accolades come just three months after the launch of MonacoOPTIXXR, designed with the latest patent pending technology to produce highly accurate ICC profiles for CRT and flat panel color displays.
“Early market validation and praise is critical for any new product to be successful,” said Bonnie Fladung, X-Rite’s Marketing Manager. “This recognition is a major milestone for X Rite, furthering our commitment to develop value-added color management solutions for our customers throughout the graphic arts workflow.”
In PC World’s round up review, X-Rite’s MonacoOPTIXXR was compared with GretagMacbeth's Eye-One™ Display, Integrated Color Solutions' BasICColor™ Display 2.5 and Pantone ColorVision's® SpyderPro™. PC World contributor Mark Rutherford writes, “X Rite's exceptional performance earns it our Best Buy nod. It achieved the deepest shades of blue and the finest gray-scale transitions--allowing our LCD to match the subtleties that previously only high-end CRTs could achieve.” Rutherford continued, “The X-Rite [solution] is fairly easy to navigate; and it has more-advanced functions, such as the ability to calibrate for a custom color temperature or according to ambient light conditions.”
