New EFI Fiery DFE for Ricoh Pro C9200/C9210 Digital Color Presses Drives Exceptional Speed, Quality and Workflow Integration
May 22 2018 - 9:15AM
Electronics For Imaging, Inc. (Nasdaq:EFII), is announcing a new
EFI™ Fiery® digital front end (DFE) designed to drive the new RICOH
Pro C9200/C9210 Graphic Arts Edition series of high end digital
color production presses. Based on the latest Fiery FS300 Pro
software, the Fiery Color Controller E-85 ensures unparalleled
productivity, exceptional color and seamless workflow integration.
Fiery job processing technology ensures customers can maximize
engine utilization and minimize downtime, resulting in higher
production capacity and greater workflow efficiency. Plus, Fiery
HyperRIP provides additional job processing flexibility by parallel
processing of up to four print jobs simultaneously. And, a Rush RIP
mode on the DFE opens up a fifth RIP to process rush jobs when all
four main parallel processors are busy.
“Our customers have come to depend on the exceptional
performance delivered by the combination of our award-winning
presses and Fiery DFEs,” said John Fulena, vice president of the
Commercial & Industrial Printing Business Group at Ricoh USA,
Inc. “Our long-term and close collaboration with EFI in the
development of DFEs optimized for use exclusively with Ricoh
digital sheet-fed presses has been an important factor in the
overall success of our digital printing portfolio. With this new
Fiery DFE, we have continued this work, supporting the ever more
functional and productive digital printing solutions our customer
base is looking for.”
Workflow automation tools included with the Fiery DFE minimize
repetitive tasks and reduce touch points. The free Fiery JobFlow™
Base software comes pre-installed, which automates job preparation
steps in prepress workflows to produce ready-to-print files,
increasing productivity and reducing costs. And, for customers who
want to perform more advanced automation, including intelligent job
routing and advanced scripting, it’s easy to upgrade to the paid
version of Fiery JobFlow.
Customers can establish broader, business-wide workflow
automation using the Fiery DFE to integrate their digital print
operations with EFI management information systems, EFI
Web-to-Print software, and other popular prepress workflows like
Kodak™ PRINERGY™ with their latest Digital Job Ticket Editor
integration, as well as Agfa Apogee® and Heidelberg® Prinect®. In
addition to the built-in industry standard, and certified JDF
connectivity, Fiery API enables print service providers to rapidly
develop live, bidirectional integration with their homegrown
software or web services for their unique workflow automation
needs. The REST architectural style that has become standard for
today’s web API allows easy development regardless of application
or software platforms including web browser, Windows®, Mac®,
Linux®, iOS®, Android®.
“Ricoh continues to invest in and grow its commercial and
industrial print portfolio, and EFI is pleased to collaborate with
them to deliver this high-value DFE which helps ensure customers’
expectations of quality and productivity are exceeded,” said John
Henze, vice president, Fiery marketing, EFI. “In addition to high
quality and fast throughput, productivity enhancers such as Fiery
JobFlow automate labor-intensive tasks, and tight integration with
key workflow solutions eliminate bottlenecks across the entire
workflow.”
The new Fiery DFE is available from Ricoh USA and authorized
Ricoh dealer partners. For more information about EFI Fiery Driven™
