PrintFactory makes workflow software Linux compatible

PrintFactory has made its workflow software suite Linux compatible, meaning it now works over the three main operating systems - Windows, MacOS and Linux.

The launch of PrintFactory on Linux offers wide-format printers maximum flexibility. For example, if prepress operators are using MacOS or Windows workstations, PrintFactory now enables jobs to be simultaneously processed on a Linux server. The open source platform also supports the direct integration of PrintFactory’s Rip application with large-format print devices. Erik Strik, CEO at PrintFactory, said: “Whether you’re a Linux enthusiast or prefer to work from Mac or Windows, PrintFactory gives large-format printers the choice to mix and match operating systems in a way that works for them. For more industrial applications, Linux is ideally suited to work as a Rip server for true clustering capability.
