Fiery Command WorkStation enables printers and Fiery-driven large format, high-speed, inkjet, cutsheet printers to seamlessly connect. This allows for automation and consolidation of print production. This unprecedented integration allows businesses the ability to select the most advanced printers on the market today and into the future.

Simplify the prepress to post-press setup for high-value jobs that require customized finishing with Fiery Impose, a PDF imposition software, that seamlessly integrates with Duplo’s latest mid-range DC-648 slitter/cutter/creaser finisher. This innovative collaboration automates and speeds up the job preparation. It can reduce setup time for operators by as much as 80%. In addition, Fiery Impose supports the DC-648’s unique ability to finish a job with up to 20 mountain (up) and 20 valley (down) creases in a single pass, totalling an impressive 40 creases.
- Fiery Digital Factory version 11. Fiery Digital Factory v11 optimizes output quality to produce personalized, customized, and specialty printed products. This software RIP, formerly CADlink Digital Factory is a workflow and a software RIP. Digital Factory is a powerful tool that can be used to manage production and create color profiles for virtually any direct-to film or direct-to garment, sublimation UV, toner, wide format, print-and-cut device. This latest release adds Fiery’s Single Pass Highlight White Underbase feature for boosted white ink, creating brighter whites and increasing color vibrancy in a single pass.
The Pinnacle Product Award assesses products that will be sold in 2023. A highly qualified panel of judges from across the printing industry evaluated the annual contest’s 160+ entries in more than 58 categories spanning analog, digital, output, and non-output technologies.
“One of the things I like best about our competition is that it is juried, and judges are basing their decisions on objective criteria. And with outstanding entries like those submitted by Fiery in the non-output category, they had their work cut out for them,” said Dawn Nye, Program Manager Pinnacle Awards, PRINTING United Alliance.
