Fremont, CA (Sept. 23, 2021)<\/em> \u2014 Electronics For Imaging Inc. launched the latest update to EFI Fiery Command WorkStation, version 6.7, which helps Fiery customers improve automation and job management to better handle growing numbers of short-run print jobs.

A long-time user of EFI Fiery digital front end solutions, sedruck KG in Leipzig, Germany found that the new features in the latest EFI Fiery Command WorkStation \u2014 available as a free upgrade \u2014 helped the company better manage print jobs and improve their turnaround times on a growing volume of short-run, quick-turn print jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Getting us back into full production faster\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe fact that we can now search for jobs across all of our 10 Fiery digital front ends is amazing, it saves us up to 80% on time and energy per search to find what we are looking for. Having two methods to pinpoint a job or jobs is also extremely valuable, plus, the interface has been kept super-simple,\u201d said Manfred Gebauer, head of purchasing and technology process management at sedruck KG. \u201cThis new function also provides supervisors insights into a job\u2019s journey. Multiple hits across queues and servers can indicate production challenges that are difficult to identify in other ways, allowing us to investigate and fix issues more readily, getting us back into full production faster. Thank you, Fiery Team.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many print businesses face the same kind of production pressures. According to data from industry research company Keypoint Intelligence, nearly a third of European print service providers and 55% of North American print service providers reported that dealing with a high number of small jobs is a primary challenge for their current workflow. As the number of orders increases, print service providers in many parts of the world are also facing labor shortages, a factor that makes automation more necessary than ever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Find it, prepare it and print it better with version 6.7<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The new version 6.7 of Fiery Command WorkStation \u2013 the management software that comes with all Fiery digital front ends (DFEs) for cut-sheet and wide- to superwide- format printers \u2013 addresses the most pressing job volume and labor needs of print service providers by speeding up the administration and production of print jobs with several new enhancements. Automated job tagging using print presets now helps customers classify, find, and manage jobs faster. And, a new search tool gives users the power to search for jobs across all their connected Fiery DFE servers. Both features save valuable time when managing a large volume of jobs in fast-moving print shops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Command WorkStation \u2013 working in tandem with connected Fiery Workflow Suite software \u2013 also makes other important print job preparation tasks simpler and faster for print service providers. In the new release, for example, the Workflow Suite\u2019s Fiery ImageViewer solution has new controls for reordering, duplicating, or deleting pages, eliminating the need to step out of the tool for simple page-level edits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Print businesses can save even more timing by using Fiery Hot Folders with Command WorkStation 6.7 to automate server presets, imposition templates and more. And, for variable-data jobs, users also have the ability to significantly streamline job submission tasks using another integrated solution, Fiery FreeForm Create \u2013 a free, award-winning product for designers and Command WorkStation users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cGetting many short-run, high-quality jobs done as fast as possible is in the Fiery DNA, and we have always been focused on the challenges of high-volume, short-run work,\u201d said John Henze, vice president of sales and marketing, EFI Fiery. \u201cOur customers choose Fiery because it excels in this area, and this newest Command WorkStation release gives customers even more of what they want.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
