EFI has launched Fiery Workflow Suite, a set of comprehensive integrated digital products designed to help accelerate business growth and profitability from job submission and business management to scheduling, preparation and production.

EFI says its Fiery Workflow Suite products are designed to integrate seamlessly with EFI's Fiery digital front end. The suite includes applications for job submission, prepress, make-ready, colour profiling and management, personalisation, and output management.

"Print service providers are increasingly replacing standalone workflow solutions with integrated, customisable solutions," says Kaspar Roos, associate director for InfoTrends' production workflow and customised communication service. "In our 2012 Digital Front-End Study, we found strong evidence that print providers want to move their workflow solutions to the DFE so that they can run their workflow from a central location that easily integrates with other systems. With EFI Fiery Workflow Suite, based on its popular Fiery platform, EFI offers its customers exactly this."

Fiery Workflow Suite includes three key new applications: Fiery JobFlow, Fiery JobMaster, and Fiery Central, which work together to increase print production efficiency with integrated and automated workflows, maximise print engine capacity and capability, process more jobs in less time, and help print service providers offer new higher-profit, value-added services.
