Print Solutions
In the US, EFI and Duplo Corporation have announced a new, time saving integration between EFI's Fiery production workflow for digital print devices and Duplo's slitter/cutter/creasers. This new offering allows for efficient, automated imposition layout and production from pre-press through the finishing stages delivering precise throughput faster and saving up to 70% of set up time.
Available for the DC-746 slitter/cutter/creaser model now and later for the DC- 646 slitter/cutter/creaser, the new integration connects Duplo devices to Fiery Impose software, giving users an automatically generated, accurate preview of slit, cut, and crease locations in their printing jobs. Users also can save new layouts as templates to automate imposition on future jobs. And, using Fiery Impose's existing Duplo barcode support, users can load printed jobs directly into the DC-646 and DC-746 and let the finisher perform automatic set up for the job based on the barcode.
The new integration feature is currently available through a firmware update delivered online for the Duplo DC-746's PC Controller software. Support for the Duplo DC-646 will be available later this year.
