Frequently asked questions

Is my Koenig & Bauer press compatible with Rutherford closed-loop color?
Koenig & Bauer ErgoTronic and ColorTronic consoles on Rapida presses can run Rutherford ColorLoop through their ink-key interface. The free console validation confirms your exact model and generation within one business day.
Do I need to replace my Koenig & Bauer console to add closed-loop color control?
No. Rutherford ColorLoop connects to the existing console and pushes ink-key corrections to it. You keep your press, your console and your operators.
