Professional Color

Professionals need highly accurate color and professional instruments to measure it. i1iSis is an incredibly automated, high-speed chart reader based on X-Rite’s award-winning i1 technology. It’s simple to use, there is not even a button—just load it up and go. Your color is captured and mastered.

Automated by Design

A sleek, precise reader with a tightly engineered form factor and small footprint, i1iSis can put automated color into your workflow at any point.  It’s available in two sizes: standard, which can read A4+ or letter size; and XL for A3+ or tabloid size if you need to read large, comprehensive charts.  XL can read an astonishing 2,500 patches printed on a single A3 page!
Automation is one of the key benefits of iSis, and you’ll find its load and go simplicity amazing.  A unique built-in vision system automatically corrects for chart misalignment so media handling errors and misfeeds are a thing of the past. iSis also interprets bar codes to prevent chart ID problems, plus it recognizes the size and type of chart without conversing with your software—it’s got brains on board.

Precision

Because the i1iSis is based on i1 spectral technology, you’ll capture the full spectral data of the charts you measure, assuring the most accurate measurements and profiles. In a single chart measurement cycle you can read both UV-cut and measurements with no filter.

Speed

i1iSis is so fast your color will practically fly off the page.  If you’re in a high-production environment or have a need to do lots of calibrations or profiles, iSis is for you. It can measure both UV-Cut and No-Filter on 1,500 patches in eight minutes It’s three times faster than an iCColor and 6 times faster than a DTP-41. Zip!
