Kodak Adds Connectivity in Prinergy Update

Kodak has added digital capabilities in Prinergy Workflow 8.1, which includes new bi-directional connectivity to a range of digital presses and what the company describes as a unique new Preset functionality.

“Prinergy Workflow 8.1 will provide our customers with the widest choice when connecting to a digital device,” said Allan Brown, VP and GM of Kodak’s Unified Workflow Solutions.

Version 8.1 now offers bi-directional communication with EFI Fiery and HP Digital Front Ends allowing an operator to make digital document decisions within Prinergy Workflow. This adds to existing press connectivity with Ricoh, Konica Minolta, Landa and Komori machines.

Kodak’s updated software version includes the Prinergy Workflow 8 universal Digital Job Ticket Editor, which uses real-time information to make production decisions.

Version 8.1’s new Preset feature, explains Kodak, streamlines production by removing multiple touch points. Customers will be able to define, save and re-use print product specifications that will result in the ability to customize jobs for specific Digital Front Ends.
