Digital Printing, Philadelphia Style

At its exhibit, Océ North America presented a working "Printshop for the 21st Century" featuring live, on-demand document workflow. It announced a number of enhancements to its VarioPrint 5000 series of cut-sheet digital printers, including the new 135-ppm Océ VarioPrint 5000 advanced version. It incorporates PRISMAproduction server hardware and software directly into the printer, allowing printer and workflow control from one central point, so operators quickly check status, identify problems and make adjustments. It accepts and seamlessly interprets all major PDLs and data streams and proprietary formats like Xerox DigiPath output.
