This activity guide is intended for two types of users who will be using the Kodak Prinergy Evo Workflow software. It can function as:

• A self-study guide for those who want to teach themselves how to use the Prinergy Evo Workflow software
• Reference material for those who have taken the Evo training course and want to revisit their training on an as-needed basis

The objective of the guide is to help you become knowledgeable with the Prinergy Evo Workflow software and workflow and apply this knowledge to your own working environment. Working your way through the activities provides you with practical knowledge of the concepts and functions of the Evo software, including product information, terminology, user interface, processes, and standard workflows. 

To perform these activities, you must have access to a client workstation that has Prinergy Evo Workflow software installed and configured. Some of the activities are for Prinergy Evo licensed options. In order to perform those activities, you require access to a Prinergy Evo client workstation that is licensed to run those options.

If you do not yet have access to a Prinergy Evo Workflow Client workstation, you can use the Prinergy Evo CBT, found in Partner Place service and support portal Answer ID 6824 (requires login credentials) to start learning about the software.This active training tool introduces you to general concepts about Prinergy Evo, and lets you explore parts of the Prinergy Evo software. You can complete the computer-based training before Prinergy Evo Workflow is installed and come back to it for refresher training on specific topics.
