The latest version of EFI’s Fiery JobFlow software has been announced and brings a new level of job preparation automation to Fiery driven environments for print operations of all sizes.
‘Today, according to research from InfoTrends, less than 10% of print jobs are produced without intervention, so there is a huge opportunity for print service providers to increase their productivity and profitability by implementing more automation in the future,’ said John Henze, vice president, Fiery marketing, EFI. ‘The significant advancements in Fiery JobFlow 2.2, such as the ability to import and export ready-to-use workflows and to connect to third party systems, provide a clear path for printing companies to achieve these automation goals, stay competitive and boost customer satisfaction.’
By automating the manual job preparation steps required for the initial setup of a job into workflow, the software gives print professionals the ability to submit and process similar jobs with a single click.
Jobs such as printing brochures, business cards and direct mail typically require preflighting, imposition and a soft proof creation. Each of these steps can take up to 15 minutes and the Fiery JobFlow can reduce the overall preparation time to two minutes or less per job. The increased productivity from using the software can deliver a payback time of under three months.
