PPF Workflow

PPF Workflow — General

In this workflow a PPF/CIP3 file is generated by the prepress system and processed by the Prinect Pressroom Manager. After a PPF/CIP3 file has been processed, a job is created in the Prinect Press­room Manager, which then appears in the job list. You can define whether this takes place manually or automatically via the process in each case.

The machines are connected via the "Central Device Manager" (CDM). The "Data Terminal" option is available for machines which cannot be connected online (for example GTO 52). However, this is not contained in the basic package.
