HyperXpress is a high performance
software raster image processor (RIP) designed to
enhance your productivity by dramatically decreasing
the time it takes to print large, complex raster
and vector images. HyperXpress is seamlessly integrated
into your design environment to enable fast, high
quality printing to any desktop or wide format output
device.
HyperXpress offloads the printer and does all the
RIPing (Raster Image Processing) on a workstation.
Images processed by HyperXpress will get to paper
faster, and be of higher quality than if the printer
tried to do the work itself. Large data sets often
cause the printer to run out of memory, or print
slower than when driven by HyperXpress. HyperXpress
drives printers and plotters at full speed and only
requires a minimal amount of memory to be installed
on the output device.
HyperXpress runs seamlessly inside Windows applications
such as AutoCAD and ESRI and provides a simple intuitive
method to quickly print raster and vector images.
HyperXpress also has a rich set of scaling and annotation
features that far exceed the capabilities of printer
RIPs.
Pinebush Technologies, Inc. initially developed
Hyperplot to solve printing and plotting bottlenecks
in the semiconductor industry. It is now the industry
standard plotting solution for Electronics Computer
Aided Design (ECAD). This high performance technology
is now available inside HyperXpress for GIS, aerial
photography, satellite imaging, civil engineering,
architecture, and various other CAD and scientific
applications.
Key
Benefits
- Expense Management :
Extend the useable life of your current plotting
and printing assets. Reduce costs by previewing
and editing images before committing to print.
- Productivity:
Significantly reduce the time it takes to print
your huge, complex image. Do not wait forever.
Get your plots now.
- Versatility:
HyperXpress is available in a number of
different configurations, including Standalone
and Client-Server. With our Client-Server configuration,
off-loading the local workstation from processing
the image results in increased performance and
user productivity. Even more, HyperXpress automatically
installs as a printer option in all Windows applications
on your workstation.
- Increased Functionality:
HyperXpress provides a full complement
of image manipulation features including scaling,
rotation, cropping, color correction and tiling.
While many firmware/hardware solutions offer some
combination of these, few can match the functionality
provided by HyperXpress.
- Reliability:
Like its predecessor HyperPlot®, the
undisputed standard for plotting in the semiconductor
(EDA) industry, HyperXpress is a proven technology.
Together, these printing solutions are serving
over 35,000 users at businesses worldwide, including
AT&T, ENCAD, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Motorola,
Sun Microsystems, Xerox, and many more.
- Previewer and Markup Annotation:
HyperXpress' unique integrated post-RIP
image previewer allows proofing of output before
printing, saving time and supplies. Redline your
print with lines, text, notes, arrows, and more.

(error diffusion) algorithm for smoothing color
transitions
- to apply gamma corrections to adjust color
levels
- to adjust image brightness and contrast
