| Throughput |
Operation of the printer workflow is highly optimized for maximum print throughput and fully unattended operation. The usual "front end" bottleneck is eliminated by giving each workstation on the network full control of the usual "front end" functions.
Print files may be printed from any location on the network. No machine operator is required for printing. Printing begins immediately and proceeds as the file is received over the network. The print file need not be fully received at the printer to begin printing. At worst, network delays will cause the printer to pause with no resulting artifact in the print and no loss of print quality.
The user interface for submitting jobs and controlling printing parameters is refined for high throughput and particular ease of use. Each workstation submitting jobs to the printer can control all printing parameters as well as monitor the queue of work being printed.
Each workstation has full control of: print size, image rotation, print job priority, borders, text notes on prints, color balance, and number of prints.
Optional WorkStream software package offers the on-the-fly imaging capabilities of Workstation with such additional benefits as packaging, order management, production tracking and the
integration of labs and their customers, which streamlines workflow and maximizes productivity.
