SCREEN Partners with EFI to Enable Fiery Digital Front End Integration with EQUIOS Workflow
Or, in commercial printing environments, it is becoming very common to have a hybrid setup where long-run jobs are handled by traditional offset presses, with mid- or short-run jobs, or jobs that require personalization, handled by digital presses. In these scenarios, the effective hybrid setup requires seamless routing between multiple presses and centralized control with clear visualization of each machine and job status in order to determine the most efficient production schedule and process. "SCREEN's EQUIOS platform integrated with EFI Fiery DFEs and Fiery Driven digital presses make it easy and quick to direct jobs to the appropriate systems with universal job tickets and print-ready files. The connectivity also provides EQUOIS users access to one of the widest selections of production printers from industry leading vendors that fits today's most demanding scenarios," said John Henze, vice president, Fiery marketing, EFI.
