Xitron’s Digital Front End has been designed as a future-proof, scalable production system capable of outpacing the fastest of today’s high-speed inkjet presses. Whether the application is single color, multicolor, multi-printhead, single sided, duplex or variable data-rich, Navigator DFE provides the power for high-speed printing applications such as transactional, label, direct mail, and more!

Navigator Northstar fixes the inconsistent color issues encountered by users of Astrojet M1 printers as well as the Colordyne 1600 (C & S), RTI-Digital Vortex 850S, Neopost Mach 5 and Mach X, Formax Colormax 7, and Trojan series of printers, all of which use the Memjet VersaPass™ inkjet head. Northstar delivers the same functionality to users of the OKI Data 931 and 941 toner-based printers.

For over 40 years, Xitron’s development team has created prepress software applications commissioned by principle vendors in the printing industry. From simple Harlequin RIP/output applications to complex workflows; digital front ends (DFE) to press console interfaces, Xitron leads the way in innovative RIP software design.

Variegator is a simple, stand-alone application that makes variable data printing quick and profitable. Variegator unlocks the power of a digital press to produce high profit variable data print jobs including labels, hang tags, and flyers. Variegator gives you the tools to produce sophisticated data jobs with elements like variable barcodes, images and colors by dragging and dropping rather than writing complex code.

Xitron’s inkjet cost calculator is an on-line tool designed to help production inkjet press users determine costs on a job-by-job basis. It can be configured by each user to reflect current ink and inkjet head costs, and changed or updated whenever necessary. Jobs are uploaded through a simple user interface where they are analyzed according to the user’s stored criteria, and a cost report is returned in a matter of seconds.
