Setup of digital presses with a Digital Print Connector

If you have devices with a "Digital Print Connector" connection, the setup for finishing is basically just the selection of a predefined output configuration of the press and finisher, e.g. "HP Indigo 3500". Output configurations are defined through "virtual printers". They are set up at the operator workstation ("digital front end") of the press and stored there.

You can select the output configuration you want in the "Virtual Printers" list box. This configuration displays as a symbol matching your selection.

Different sheet quantities within a print job for HP Production Pro

The "HP Production Pro" digital front end supports the output of different numbers of copies for single sheets within a print job. To be able to use this functionality with the Prinect workflow as well, you can create jobs in the MIS or with the Prinect Planning Assistant that provide different quantities for each of the imposed sheets.

When you edit such jobs with an ImposedPrint sequence and submit them to HP Production Pro, the different numbers of copies for the single sheets are applied.
