Introduction

The Changing Market for Digital Front Ends

In a 2011 U.S. survey, Digital Front Ends: Understanding Market Dynamics and Customer Requirements, InfoTrends identified the key

features that respondents look for in a digital front end for print engines:

•Raster image processing (RIP)

-Converting content specified in a page description language into raster images that a printer can read and process

•Job management / file handling

-Receive, manage and prepare jobs for print production

-Select media and finishing options

-Release files into print production

•Prepress and make-ready capabilities

-Color management

-Imposition, preflighting and trapping

•Automation support (job ticketing)

The report further found that the reputation of the vendor is an important consideration for end customers, as are the following:

•Ease of use

•Consistent and reliable output

•High performance based on RIP speed

•Familiarity of interface and operational consistency

Finally, the survey showed that most print service providers use digital front ends (DFEs) to perform a wide variety of prepress, make-

ready and job management tasks as well as to release jobs into print. InfoTrends also projects from the survey information that digital front

ends will quickly become a key part of end-to-end, automated workflows and will integrate into cloud workflows. The survey report also

notes, “As DFEs are becoming more tightly integrated, there is a need for wider job ticketing support, better integration with workflow or

accounting solutions, and higher compatibility with traditional/offset workflows.”

Fiery Servers Meet Current and Future Needs

Fiery®servers cover the entire digital printing spectrum. From light volume through high-production market segments, there’s a Fiery DFE

designed to meet every need. Fiery servers scale from proofing to production and are equipped with a consistent user interface that

minimizes learning curves, regardless of the complexity of the solution.

Market-leading Fiery servers excel in the following four categories:

Productivity

Fiery Systems Maximize Productivity and Automate Workflows

Architectural improvements and the latest hardware configurations continue to ensure that Fiery servers are the fastest and most

productive digital front ends (DFEs) in the market. Powerful features such as Fiery HyperRIP enable customers not only to take advantage

of the already improved performance of the FS150 Pro servers but also to obtain an additional performance improvement in speed of up

to 55% — adding to the already robust world-class tools in Fiery FS150 Pro.

Color

Fiery Systems Deliver Amazing, Accurate and Consistent Color across Applications and Platforms

Fiery technology continues to improve the out-of-the box color experience with up to date PANTONE color libraries, perfect PDF/X-4

results for both color and black and white output and other advanced color settings to ensure full compliance with the latest industry

standards.

Usability

Fiery Systems Deliver Ease of Use

Additional features for Fiery Command WorkStation and Fiery Ticker, further upstream in the print workflow, allow operators to access

their commonly used items without having to navigate multiple menus.

Customers can offer a new type of value-added application with the ability to easily define Bleed Edge Tabs.

To increase operator productivity even further, Fiery Go allows control of the Fiery Driven™ printer on an iPad or iPhone. Fiery Go allows

operators to monitor the status of multiple Fiery Driven printers to manage print jobs from anywhere in the print shop.

Integration

Fiery Systems Deliver Seamless Integration

Fiery systems continue to deepen and improve the integration from the production side of the house, adding features from an enterprise

integration perspective. This offers easier maintenance and enhanced cost-accounting integration.

FS150 Pro's inclusion of the latest JDF standards enables the 20,000+ print provider sites that use EFI MIS and Web-to-Print products to

seamlessly integrate EFI and other third-party products with Fiery digital front ends, making Fiery servers the preferred choice for

commercial printers. Fiery FS150 Pro, along with Fiery FS100 Pro, Fiery System 9 Release 2 and 10, is the first to achieve the JDF1.3

Integrated Digital Printing Interoperability Conformance Specifications (ICS) certification by CIP4.

For more information, please visit the CIP4 website: http://www.cip4.org/global/v3/index.php?content=/jdfexperts/intro.php

In addition, a wide range of Fiery server families gives print service providers all the choices they need to meet their particular business

demands with features for production processes, from Web submission to management, prep and production:

•Fiery QX100 — an extremely high-performance system geared toward high-level production and mission-critical users with high-speed

engines

•Fiery PRO90 — a high-performance RIP for users who require quality and performance

•Fiery PRO80 — a high-performance RIP for users requiring both quality and performance at an affordable price

•Fiery E200 — the ultimate document-publishing system that takes the pain out of producing complex color documents, providing

efficiency and ease for small/medium businesses and enterprise office users alike

•Fiery PRO80 BW and Fiery E200 BW — outstanding performance, seamless workflow management and superior image quality in

black-and-white production printing environments with tight deadlines and high customer expectations

Fiery server families suit any digital print need and environment. Check the Fiery feature matrix or contact your Fiery dealer for the standard and option

features for a specific Fiery server model.
