BENEFITS

PrintFactory is more than just a RIP, it enables your customers to achieve:


Effortless colour management

  • Ability to reproduce the same colour every time with recalibration features to allow the user to compensate for shifts in colour caused by external factors
  • Advanced proofing grade VISU colour engines create cleaner and more vibrant colours with enhanced shape and contrast to get a consistent proofing grade colour on different substrates
  • Reduce spend and reliance on creative licenses using editor functionality for faster and simpler pre-production


Truly automated workflows

  • Capability to resolve scheduling issues right to the last second with dynamic nesting using deadline dictates priority (DDI) and just in time (JIT) techniques
  • Unified, end-to-end workflow that dramatically reduces the risk of human error
  • Upstream feedback and live status updates job has been sent through the RIP
  • Browser-based dashboard to leverage insights from real-time reporting on ink and media usage
  • Access to dashboard via mobile app for on-the-go insights
  • Centralised nesting function complementing web2print workflows and enabling high volume throughput
  • Robust colour management solution for reliable and consistent outputs, removing any quality assurance concerns


Quality assurance

  • Track and trace IDs to show the real-time status of each job, copy, printer and cutter
  • Cloud certification provides more consistent reporting of job and consumables to the cloud, including the ability to view real time job info and certification reports from a mobile phone
  • Ultimate flexibility by combining normalised or standard ICC workflows with the same profile using DeviceLink


Resource savings

  • Get jobs right first time by reducing job preparation with a single, integrated RIP workflow to improve consistency
  • Reduce ink consumption by 15-20% compared to canned ICC profiles
  • Increase longevity of expensive consumables such as ink heads
  • Reduce media wastage


Pre-press production efficiencies

  • Rather than preparing files using a different application such as Adobe Creative Suite or dropping them in an output folder, our software merges all the tools from a pre-press department including editor, tiling, colour management and finishing so that jobs can be sent straight to print. This allows for faster turnaround times and higher production volumes
  • Normalised workflows make overprints and transparency issues a thing of the past saving print operators time checking test prints
  • Centralised management offering a scalable solution to remove the need for queueing for RIP to prep jobs
  • Ability to carry our production tasks in the cloud using a single dashboard
  • Built in pre-flight, soft-proofing and error detection to minimise the need to re-print jobs


Ease of use and integration

  • Simplified process that can double throughput using only the same level of resource
  • Pre-press application combines all the tools required to prepare jobs quickly and easily
  • Cloud-based tools and reporting provides real-time data on performance and live tracking of jobs
  • SaaS model makes the software more accessible and means print shops are always working with the latest version. Users also have access to online technical support and data is backed up in the event of disaster recovery
  • Automation across multiple RIPs and printers as well as advanced nesting and ganging capabilities
  • Integration of jobs with single PDF engine at all workstations for true WYSIWYG
