In an import/export workflow, one Prinergy system sets up a job for another Prinergy system to print. This is also called a hub-and-spoke workflow.
The import/export workflow involves these steps:
- At the central Prinergy system, set up the job.
- Generate proofs.
You can generate proofs of loose pages and impositions. They can be soft proofs (viewed on the computer monitor) or hard proofs (printed). - Export the job and send the.zip file to the remote Prinergy system.
- At the remote Prinergy system, import the
.zip
file. - Output to plate.
- Optionally, at the hub or spoke, archive the job.
