The X-Rite i1Publish Pro 3 Plus is a complete professional color management solution designed for photographers, designers, imaging professionals, and prepress specialists who require accurate color throughout the entire digital workflow. Combining advanced i1Pro 3 Plus spectrophotometer technology with powerful profiling software, the i1Publish Pro 3 Plus enables users to create custom ICC profiles for cameras, monitors, projectors, scanners, and RGB, CMYK, and expanded gamut printers.

Built for demanding color-critical environments, the X-Rite i1Publish Pro 3 Plus delivers highly accurate and repeatable results from image capture through final output. The advanced 8 mm measurement aperture provides improved accuracy and consistency when measuring specialty substrates, textured materials, textiles, fabrics, and other challenging surfaces where standard apertures may not provide optimal results.

The i1Publish Pro 3 Plus includes transmissive profiling capabilities for faster measurements and more accurate, consistent profiles, helping reduce production waste, costly reprints, and workflow interruptions. With support for modern display technologies including LED, OLED, RG Phosphor, Plasma, and Wide Gamut displays, users can achieve reliable color accuracy across today's most advanced imaging devices.

Designed for both beginners and experienced color professionals, i1Profiler software provides an intuitive wizard-driven workflow along with advanced controls for creating the highest quality ICC profiles. Users can optimize RGB, CMYK, and CMYK+ printing workflows with intelligent iterative profiling technology, advanced black generation controls, and device link profiling for improved color consistency between production devices.

The X-Rite i1Publish Pro 3 Plus also includes tools for camera calibration, ColorChecker targets, print quality verification, and Optical Brightener Compensation (OBC) when used with compatible automated chart readers. This complete solution provides the accuracy and control required for professional imaging, fine art, commercial printing, packaging, and prepress workflows.
