X-Rite Releases i1Photo Pro 3 Plus for Color Perfectionists
From X-Rite:
Grand Rapids, MI USA, August 15, 2019 – X-Rite Incorporated, global leader in color science and technology, is now shipping the new i1Photo Pro 3 Plus, a spectral color measurement solution specifically designed for professional photographers who print on challenging textured and glossy photo media looking for the most accurate color in their RGB print workflows. i1Photo Pro 3 Plus combines the new i1Pro 3 Plus spectrophotometer and i1Profiler software to deliver the ultimate professional level color management for displays, projectors, scanners RGB printers and cameras.
Current profiling solutions are limited in their ability to measure textured, rough, or uneven surfaces and cannot accommodate various material thicknesses. Many devices do not have the resolution required to ensure the highest color quality when printing detailed patterns, metallic effects, or photography images. This leads to costly color errors and re-work which impacts a photographer’s bottom line.
New in the i1Pro3 Plus spectrophotometer:
- Larger 8mm aperture supports new materials and substrates used in digital printing.
- Polarization Filter (measurement condition M3) that reduces specular highlights and shadows to provide “better blacks” and richer colors on rough surfaces and glossy medias, like canvas prints and fine art photo papers.
- High Brightness Measurement up to 5K NITs for ultra-bright displays.
- Simultaneously measure M0, M1 and M2 in a single pass to account for optical brighteners so photographers can quickly predict how colors printed on optically brightened substrates will look under different lighting conditions.
- New LED illuminant that improves device reliability. The i1Pro3 Plus allows for four measurement conditions (ISO 13655 M0; M1: D50; M2: UV Excluded, M3Polarized).
- Transmission scanning support for backlit materials.
- Longer scanning ruler to support wider charts.
New X-Rite iO Table

This hands-free test chart reader offers automated color profiling on a variety of substrates with reduced risk of color measurement errors.
