Smooth Gradients
Wasatch Precision Stochastic Screens (PSS) raises fine art and photographic printing to a whole new level. Compared to other software RIP solutions, it provides clearly superior tonal quantization by eliminating “stairstepping” or “rainbowing” in the printing of subtle gradations. It also improves the reproduction of all grays.
Recent updates to PSS combine the advantages of Error Diffusion with the full speed and other quality advantages already available. It even preserves color profiles, because all profiles made with earlier versions of PSS will continue to work accurately with this latest update

Faster RIP Speed
The PSS halftone method not only improves image quality, but also improves throughput speed. Using PSS versus other RIP halftone methods increases RIP speed by 30% for variable– dot printers and more than 100% for fixed–dot printers.
A Wasatch Exclusive
Other RIPs offer rudimentary stochastic screening, and claim that they RIP as fast as SoftRIP. They don't tell you that their stochastic solution produces grainy, poor quality output. Only Wasatch PSS gives you both superior quality color and gradients, and faster speed. Compare PSS output with other RIPs using their Stochastic screens. You will see the difference and be impressed with our quality. We guarantee it.
Profiling with PSS
Due to all these advantages PSS is Wasatch's default halftoning method and is the halftoning used for new imaging configurations created at the Wasatch facility since May 2004. It is a major advance over previous methods and further extends Wasatch's edge in both speed and image quality.
