The DFE enables print service providers to reduce job preparation time and automate converting.

‘We are constantly innovating our press portfolio and, as a result our, software solutions that support them, so our customers can maximize their production possibilities,’ comments Filip Weymans, vice president marketing at Xeikon. ‘The Xeikon X-800 6.0 DFE builds on our highly successful and established dedicated Xeikon press software platform that works with open standards and delivers scalable functionality.’

Weymans continues: ‘It will allow all our customers to add value no matter their specialty area. From label and packaging converters to operations with high-volume data throughput requirements, the latest version will help them streamline their workflow, reduce job preparation time for even the most complex work and become more responsive and efficient.’

‘Our X-800 DFE is designed from a digital printing perspective to outperform any other DFE in the market when it comes to the level of automation possible. X-800 6.0 strongly focuses on enhancing operational capabilities, one of which is automated impositioning. Streamlining this process can easily help operations save hundreds of prepress and job preparation hours per year. This alone delivers a clear and measurable value.’
