A Prinergy system can use Kodak PrintLink digital ink-profiling software to generate the preview data that is used by a press controller for setting up a print job. Instead of sending the preview data directly to the press controller, Prinergy can use Business Link ICS connectivity to send the data via the MIS. Depending on the format required by your MIS, you can configure a Prinergy final output process template to send the data in either the CIP3 PPF or the CIP4 JDF/PNG format.

Process template requirements for press preview data

The PrintLink area of the final output process template determines the format of the press preview data that Prinergy generates for the press controller.

Business Link does not use the location that you specify in the final output process template's Put Files in Directory option. Instead, it uses its own copies of the press preview files, which it references via file URLs in the JDF data that it sends to the MIS.
For PrintLink CIP4 JDF output:

  • The PrintLink check box must be selected.
  • The File Generation Mode must be set to One file per separation.
  • The Press Interface option must be set to JDF.

For CIP3 PPF output:

  • The File Generation Mode must be set to One file per separation.
  • The Press Interface must be set to a generic or specific interface (not JDF) that formats the generated PPF output files correctly for the target press.

Using a process template for press previews only

Configure a Prinergy process template that you can use when only PrintLink output is needed, and then map the process template to a virtual PrintLink material in Business Link.

You normally use one process template to print the final output to plate or film media and also to generate the PrintLink press preview data. At times, you might need to generate or regenerate only the previews for a job.

  1. In Prinergy Workshop, configure a final output process template for your desired PrintLink output format.
    • Ensure that the Device check box is not selected.
    • Give this process template a useful name, such as FO_PrintLinkOnly.
      The new process template automatically appears on the Process Mapping tab of the Business Link Administration Client.
  2. On the Process Mapping tab, map your new process template to the virtual <PrintLink> material.
    This material is predefined in the Business Link Materials dialog box.
  3. Select this process template whenever you need only the press preview data.
    No physical material will be consumed or reported.

Note: For more information about Prinergy and PrintLink, see the Prinergy Workshop documentation.

MIS requirements for press previews

To initiate the collection of preview data, the MIS must provide a placeholder in the JDF job ticket for the preview data. In JDF terms, this request is provided in a Preview resource in the JDF FinalImaging or PlateMaking node.
Note: If the MIS does not request the press preview data, Business Link will not send it to the MIS.

Un sistema de Prinergy puede utilizar el software digital de creación de perfiles de tinta Kodak PrintLink para generar los datos de vista previa que el controlador de prensa usa para configurar un trabajo de impresión. En lugar de enviar los datos de vista previa directamente al controlador de impresión, Prinergy puede utilizar la conectividad ICS de Business Link para enviarlos a través del MIS. Según el formato exigido por su MIS, podrá configurar una plantilla de proceso de salida final de Prinergy para enviar los datos en formato PPF de CIP3 o JDF/PNG de CIP4.

Un système Prinergy peut utiliser le logiciel de profilage numérique de l'encre Kodak PrintLink pour générer les données d'aperçu utilisées par un contrôleur de presse pour configurer un travail d'impression. Au lieu d'envoyer les données d'aperçu directement au contrôleur de presse, Prinergy peut utiliser la connectivité ICS de Business Link pour envoyer les données via le MIS. Selon le format exigé par votre MIS, vous pouvez configurer un modèle de processus de sortie finale Prinergy pour envoyer les données sous le format CIP3 PPF ou CIP4 JDF/PNG.

Prinergy システムでは Kodak PrintLink デジタル インキ プロファイリング ソフトウェアを使用して、印刷ジョブを設定するための印刷コントローラで使用されるプレビュー データを作成することができます。Prinergy では、プレビュー データを印刷コントローラに直接送信する代わりに、Business Link ICS 接続を使用して MIS を介してデータ送信できます。Prinergy の最終出力プロセス テンプレートでは、MIS で必要な形式に応じて、CIP3 PPF または CIP4 JDF/PNG 形式のどちらかを使用しでデータを送信するように設定できます。

Ein Prinergy-System kann mit der digitalen Profilerstellungs-Software Kodak PrintLink die Vorschaudaten generieren, mit denen ein Druckmaschinen-Controller einen Druckjob einrichtet. Anstatt die Vorschaudaten direkt an den Druckmaschinen-Controller zu senden, kann Prinergy die Daten mittels der ICS-Verbindung in Business Link über das MIS senden. Je nach dem von Ihrem MIS vorgegebenen Format können Sie eine Prinergy-Endausgabe-Prozessvorlage konfigurieren, um die Daten entweder im CIP3 PPF- oder im CIP4 JDF/PNG-Format zu senden.
