Fiery has announced Fiery XF 8 for wide- to super-wide print production with integration for over 2,400 printers and 2,100 cutter types.
“Fiery XF was already extremely flexible in terms of printer and cutter support, but the introduction of version 8 takes that to another level with the hundreds of newly-added supported devices,” said Sue Hayward, commercial director at UK/Ireland EFI distributor CMYUK. “In practical terms, no matter which printer or cutter a customer wants to add to their large-format print production, chances are Fiery XF 8 will support it. This keeps onsite disruption, integration, installation, and training times to an absolute minimum, making all our lives easier.”
Fiery XF combines Rip, colour management and workflow software in one solution for large-format print production. Powered by Fiery Command WorkStation, it can drive multiple printers from a single Fiery XF server.
Additional new features in Fiery XF include: Cut Server 3.0, which adds 900+ more cutters to support over 2,100 roll to roll cutter models; 250+ new printer drivers from vendors including Canon, Epson, Fuji, GongZheng, Inkcups, Liyu, Mimaki, and Roland DG for a total of 2,400 printers now available; a ‘Fast’ processing option that boosts job processing performance; a new Job Editor for improved usability and performance with features designed to simplify navigation, optimise space utilisation, and improve nesting capabilities; and automated Fiery XF system backup and enhanced server file management.
