Remote control from your desktopWith an intuative user interface, PosiFlow en- ables operators to man-age and control jobs from all Mac or PC prepress workstations. Job tracking can be monitored on any workstation throughout the production process.
Competitive and flexiblePrepress automation and throughput are essential for remaining competitive in print. With a modular PosiFlow solution, your prepress department will be equipped to meet the demands of your clients. No matter the size of your operation, PosiFlow can be configured to meet your requirements.
PosiFlow is a fully integrated RIP and workflow solution for your iCtP™ PlateWriter or NewsWriter, designed to streamline and automate your prepress production.
With the help of the intuitive user interface, operators are able to manage their work and control jobs from any prepress workstation, greatly increasing productivity and reducing costs. Customized workflow sequences and settings can be saved in the system, helping to manage jobs and reduce errors.
PosiFlow allows you to manage all document changes and RIP setting from one computer, instead of moving between a workstation and the RIP computer. In addition, it provides the platform on which the various additional RIP tools and options can be integrated.
Easy-to-use, powerful and flexible, the standard PosiFlow solutoin provides basic workflow capabilities for one client, letting you choose which additional tools and options would be most beneficial to integrate into your workflow.
