If you prepare files but do not make film or plates at your site, coordinate workflow details with your printer.

Handing files to the printer site

In order that your workflow outputs files as intended, it is important to do the following:

• Coordinate with your printer site to perform tests with reasonably complex sample files.
• Communicate with your printer site that when they input the Prinergy pages, they should not perform additional processing on the pages. Otherwise, another proof cycle may be required.
  Accordingly, if the printer site uses Prinergy, they should refine with as few settings as possible; for example, using a Bypass Refine process template.

As a 'page creator,' you refine and deliver files (usually pages; not flats) to a printer, who has specific output requirements based on his operation.
