PrintFactory launches cloud-based automation tools

THE SKY’S THE LIMIT NOW LFP BUSINESSES CAN COMMIT TO THE CLOUD


The creators and developers of the PrintFactory RIP Workflow solution software have launched a new suite of cloud-based automation tools.


With features such as ‘just in time’ job scheduling and the capability to drive an infinite number of machines, PrintFactory is spearheading progress for LFP operations by taking the the complexities out of colour management and making true lights out production a possibility.


“Today we’ve achieved what we always set out to do: to make the wide-format print process as simple as possible through the power of technology,” says PrintFactory CEO, Erik Strik.


“We believe ink and media wastage due to mechanical error should be no more. Getting the right result first time and every time should be the norm. That is why we have invested two decades of development in making our vision to revolutionise wide format print a reality.


“With a cloud-based solution that ensures complete consistency of output wherever, whenever and from whichever device you’re driving your jobs, we believe we have harnessed the potential to do just that.”


Cloud-based workflows can bring huge efficiencies to the super wide and large format print industries, and these new automation tools allow users to directly integrate their existing MIS/workflow systems into the PrintFactory platform for seamless production management.

The real benefit of the PrintFactory cloud is the powerful scalability and reliability enabling companies of any size to leverage features such as:

  • XML/JDF Job Submission – powerful integration with existing MIS/workflow solutions, providing end to end file processing/delivery, from MIS to Printer in one solution.
  • Dynamic Nesting – enabling companies to create dynamically scaling nesting workflows, providing true cloud based processing of jobs with local delivery to the RIP/Printers.
  • Ink/Media Reporting – real time reporting of ink and media usage, enabling companies to manage their consumables usage more accurately than ever before.

Notes to Editors:

PrintFactory has been finding ways to improve the large format print process since 2001. Determined to free the LFP sector of the unnecessary complexities that continue to impact on cost, consistency and capacity on the production floor, PrintFactory has completely re-engineered the wide-format workflow to equip the world’s print shops with an intuitive and future-proofed platform that resolves these issues and readies them for the industry 4.0 era.


The IP-rich, research focused development team has brought its complete proofing solutions to market under many guises. Synonymous with an acclaimed portfolio of time and resource saving products, including GMG’s ProductionSuite and ProofMaster platforms, PrintFactory – with its celebrated software of the same name – has now set up as an entity in its own right to focus on developing its cloud-based automation tools that can be directly integrated into existing MIS/workflow systems.
