SAI
Version 22 | Design, RIP, Print & Cut Software Optimised for HP Latex Printers
OVERVIEW
SAi Flexi HP Edition is the total solution for design, RIP, print, print-and-cut, and direct-to-vinyl production workflows on HP Latex and HP wide-format printers. Built around a fast and powerful 64-bit RIP engine, Flexi HP Edition combines a complete design application with a full printer and cutter production feature set — covering signs, banners, decals and stickers, rigid graphics, vehicle wraps, and vinyl lettering from a single platform. Version 22 introduces SAi Connect for remote data and tool management, order reprints, improved nesting, contour cut creation directly in Production Manager, and Unicode support — extending an already comprehensive feature set across six product tiers built specifically for HP printer environments.
- WHY CHOOSE SAI?
Description
Fast, Powerful 64-Bit RIP Engine
- A complete design, print, print-and-cut solution built on a 64-bit RIP engine for reliable performance with large, complex jobs — handling spot color mapping, true shape nesting, and banner finishing tools without the bottlenecks of legacy 32-bit RIP software.
SAi Connect — Data and Tool Dashboard (New in v22)
- SAi Connect provides a centralised data and tool dashboard, giving production managers visibility and control across their Flexi installation. Combined with new order reprint functionality, jobs can be reprinted directly without re-ripping or reconfiguring print settings from scratch.
Production Manager Contour Cutting — New in v22
- Contour cut paths can now be created directly within Production Manager — alongside print thumbnail previews and improved tiling information. This consolidates the print-and-cut workflow into a single interface, reducing the back-and-forth between design and production stages.
G7 Certification & PANTONE Fine-Tune Spot Color Tool
- Flexi HP Edition supports G7 Certification and includes the PANTONE Fine-Tune Spot Color Tool — ensuring color-critical sign, display, and branding work meets industry-standard color accuracy requirements out of the box on supported tiers.
True Shape Nesting & Banner Finishing Tools
- True shape nesting maximises material usage by fitting irregular shapes efficiently across the available substrate — directly reducing material waste and cost per job. Banner finishing tools and easy vector/image editing streamline production from design file to finished, cut-ready output.
Improved Layers Printing — Including White Layer Support
- Version 22 improves layers job printing specifically for white ink layers — critical for HP Latex printers producing work on colored, dark, or transparent substrates where accurate white underprint or spot white is essential to the finished result.
