Choose a workflow profile Choose a workflow profile A workflow profile determines the route of jobs when they arrive on the PRISMAsync controller. PRISMAsync provides several default workflow profiles to manage your work load on the control panel. Workflow profiles make it possible to plan your jobs in a flexible way. You select a workflow profile on the control panel and, if required, adjust the attributes of the workflow profile. Then, this custom workflow profile is completely fitted to your workflow.
Choose a workflow profile Job by job workflow profile Job planning Waiting jobs Print production DocBox Scheduled jobs • The job-by-job workflow profile fits a workflow in which every job needs attention. • All jobs come in the list of scheduled jobs and you start the jobs one by one from the list of scheduled jobs. • The print system selects an other output tray for each next job.
Choose a workflow profile Unattended workflow profile Job planning Waiting jobs Print production DocBox Scheduled jobs • The unattended workflow profile fits a workflow in which productivity is very important. • All jobs go to the list of scheduled jobs and are printed. • To keep the system running, you make sure consumables remain available and you remove printed output and waste on time.
Set up automated workflows Set up automated workflows PRISMAsync offers a job workflow with multiple print queues via automated workflows. You can create and assign job properties to specific print queues. An automated workflow automatically links print settings to jobs, so that you do not need an application to open a document, define individual job settings and submit the job. The use of automated workflows has the advantage that you can increase the print production of print files.
Set up automated workflows Command: lpr -S -P NOTE The default Windows installation does not install the lpr command. Make sure this Windows feature is turned on. • Use hotfolders. The automated workflow that is attached to the hotfolder determines the job properties. (See Set up hotfolders on page 71) • Use PRISMAprepare. (See Prepare print jobs with PRISMAprepare on page 84) • Use Remote Manager.
Set up hotfolders Set up hotfolders The PRISMAsync automated workflows offer a job workflow with multiple print queues. (See Set up automated workflows on page 69) The hotfolder feature fits environments that print many files with the same print settings. A hotfolder is a shared folder on PRISMAsync. You can simply drag & drop print files on a shortcut of the desktop. (See Drag & drop print files on hotfolders on page 87) PRISMAprepare also has the possibility to submit print jobs to a hotfolder.
Set up workload planning in the print environment Set up workload planning in the print environment When there are more print systems in your print environment that all use a PRISMAsync controller, these print systems can be connected. The optional web based Remote Manager application offers a remote interface to plan your workload across the connected print systems. Remote Manager provides overviews of print systems, jobs in the queues, current activities and upcoming actions.
Register the colour tones for the ACCT function Register the colour tones for the ACCT function The automatic correction colour tone (ACCT) function corrects slight colour deviations in the colour tones that can occur over time. In order to enable the ACCT function in the future, you must first register these colour tones as a reference. It is recommended to do the registration right after print system installation. The registration procedure uses an internal sensor to measure the colour tones.
Select an accounting mode Select an accounting mode The accounting feature on PRISMAsync stores and handles job and user information in account log files. You can customise the definition of account log files to process the logging data into your cost charts or invoices. You must define account IDs to charge job costs to departments or customers and enable the user identification in the Settings Editor. PRISMAsync can verify the entered account IDs, to make sure that only valid users use the print system.
Select an accounting mode Procedure 1. 2. 3. 4. Touch [System] -> [Setup] -> [Accounting]. Touch [Accounting mode]. Select an accounting mode. Touch [OK]. After you finish You can find the account log files in the Settings Editor.
Enable Remote Service Enable Remote Service Remote Service is a web-based application that runs on the print system or on a separate server in the network. You need the Settings Editor to configure Remote Service. (See System configuration and maintenance on page 210) Remote Service has the following functionality: • Remote Diagnostics, to communicate system information for analysis and troubleshooting. • Remote Meter Reading, to send counter information for billing purposes.
Chapter 7 Prepare the jobs
Document printing workflow Document printing workflow The document printing workflow describes the route from the job preparation to the finishing and delivery of the printed output. The document printing workflow has four phases: 1. Job preparation Prepress staff defines the print document and job settings, and submits the print job to the PRISMAsync controller. The prepress staff uses PRISMA software, a printer driver, automated workflows or hotfolders to prepare and submit the jobs. 2.
Transaction printing workflow Transaction printing workflow When there is a licence for transaction printing (IPDS or PCL), you can operate the print system in the transaction printing mode. An IPDS or PCL host sends transaction print jobs to a dedicated port of the print system. The transaction printing mode fits print environments with large numbers of business critical data, such as invoices, cheques and salary slips.
Transaction printing workflow You assign the paper tray number included in the print job to a physical paper tray. You select media from the media catalogue and link these to a logical tray, indicated by a number. The print system maps the media of the logical tray to the physical paper trays that hold these media. For colour management, the output profile associated with the media family of the media is used. The control panel shows the media which the job uses.
Transaction printing workflow [37] The schedule when the transaction printing mode is active Image adjustment You can create a transaction printing preset with an image shift definition. This is useful, to better align variable data, such as names or addresses, on the page. You define the image shift on the control panel, but also in the Settings Editor. Secure error recovery When an job error occurs in transaction printing mode, the job recovery takes place from the page that caused the error.
Prepare print jobs Prepare print jobs Prepare print jobs with the printer driver The printer driver enables you to prepare the complete print job. The printer driver is available in all applications for Microsoft® Windows® and Apple® Macintosh® operating systems. You use the printer driver to submit documents from applications, such as Microsoft® Office and Adobe® Acrobat®. The printer driver provides the following features: • Access to the media catalogue, to select the best media for the job.

The workflow profile determines to which output trays PRISMAsync sends printed output. When an output tray has reached its limit, the printed output automatically goes to the next available tray. If all available output trays have reached their stacking limits, the printing process stops.
Remove printed output from the stacker / stapler IMPORTANT • Do not place objects onto the output trays of the stacker / stapler. This can damage the output trays. • Do not place objects under the paper trays of the stacker / stapler. This can damage the output trays. IMPORTANT For stapling with the stacker / stapler: • When the width of the media is small, the stapled sets can have uneven edges. • When stapled sets have coated covers, the staples can dirty the covers of sets on the output tray.
Store the prints Store the prints To keep maximum print quality, you must store prints in an optimal storage environment before the transfer to the final destination. Use the following storage recommendations: • Store prints on a flat surface. • Store prints so that the sheets cannot fold or crease. • Use a binder for storage during a long period of time (more than two years). • Do not wrap prints in PVC material. • Do not store prints in a location with high temperatures.
Handle media Handle media Check and prepare media before loading Before you load media into the paper trays, it is important to check and prepare the media. When there are load and storage instructions on the paper package, follow these instructions. When you print on media that have absorbed moisture, steam can come out from the output area of the machine. The cause is the evaporation of the paper moist due to the high temperature in the print module.

Chapter 11 Keep the colour quality high
About calibration About calibration Calibration is very important to keep the quality of the colour reproduction high. The environment of your print system influences the print quality. A constant temperature and humidity are essential for consistent colour output. The print system automatically keeps the print quality as high as possible. However, additional calibration is essential to keep the colour reproduction level stable for all media types you use.
About calibration Media for calibration The printer and media family calibration need media to print measurement charts on. Media for the printer calibration You define and see the media for the printer calibration in the Settings Editor. (See Settings Editor settings and information on page 311) NOTE To find the media for printer calibration in the Settings Editor go to: [Colour] -> [Colour calibration].
Calibrate the printer Calibrate the printer It is important that the print system is calibrated daily. The calibration indicator on the dashboard helps to remind you when printer calibration is required. (See About calibration on page 174) Printer calibration is required. As part of the procedure the system will print and measure calibration charts. IMPORTANT You are strongly advised to perform the printer calibration daily.
Calibrate the printer 3. If required, touch [Printer calibration details] to check which calibration procedures are configured. 4. Touch [Start printer calibration]. 5. Follow the instructions on the control panel.
Perform a shading correction Perform a shading correction In most cases, an automatic gradation adjustment is sufficient to deliver the required colour quality. You are advised to perform the shading correction at least once. However, in the following situations it is necessary to perform also the shading correction: • When the printed output shows uneven colour densities in the colour panes. • After the installation of the print system. • When your service representative replaces system parts.
Perform a shading correction After you finish When the shading correction fails with a "density not within required range" error, perform a correction procedure for this error.
Calibrate the media family Calibrate the media family Calibrate a media family in the following situations: • After the installation of the print system, for the default coated and uncoated media families. • When you create a new media family. • When your service representative replaces system parts. • When you want to keep the print quality high for frequently used media families. IMPORTANT • A media family calibration applies to all media of the media family.
Calibrate the media family Procedure 1. Calibrate the printer.

About colour adjustments About colour adjustments In most cases a printer calibration is sufficient to deliver the required colour quality. Therefore it is advised to always perform a printer calibration before you perform one of the procedures below. (See About calibration on page 174) Perform an automatic colour mismatch correction when the print system does not execute the colour alignment in the correct way. Reduce unwanted white edges between colour planes with a trapping preset.
Automatic colour mismatch correction Automatic colour mismatch correction When the four different colours are not aligned correctly, use the automatic colour mismatch correction to improve the alignment. [99] Incorrect alignment of colours IMPORTANT First check if the printer calibration delivers the required colour quality before you perform this procedure. (See About calibration on page 174) NOTE You cannot perform the automatic colour mismatch correction when the print system prints. Procedure 1.
Create a trapping preset Create a trapping preset When you notice unwanted white edges between colour planes, use a trapping preset to correct the connection between the colour planes. A trapping preset is a collection of trapping settings for a job or job subset. Use the trapping preset editor to create your own trapping presets. [100] Printed output without trapping preset (left-hand side) and with trapping preset IMPORTANT First check if an automatic colour mismatch correction solves the problem.

Chapter 13 Perform media adjustments
About media adjustments About media adjustments The print quality of the printed output depends on the media. When you add media to the media catalogue, you define attributes that influence the print behaviour of the print system for these media.
Correct curled output media Correct curled output media Media can arrive curled in the output tray, caused by temperature differences during the print process. You can perform a correction procedure, to prevent curled sheets on the output trays. The results of the correction are immediately effective for jobs that use these media. For media that need a curl correction in long-edge direction and short-edge direction, create two different entrances in the media catalogue.
Perform a media registration Perform a media registration The media properties influence the alignment of the images on the printed output. To ensure a correct alignment, perform a media registration for the media of the media catalogue. Always start with the registration wizard (automatic adjustment). You can perform a media registration via the Trays view, System view, or via the media used in a job. The procedure below describes the media registration via the System view.
Correct skewed and rotated images Correct skewed and rotated images When images on the printed output are skewed or slightly rotated, perform a correction procedure. You are advised to use the largest size of the media that is allowed. The correction procedure changes the media attributes in the media catalogue, so that the adjustments are applied to all jobs that use the media. You can correct skewed and rotated images via the Trays view, System view, or via the media used in a job.

More PRISMAsync colour information More PRISMAsync colour information The colour management of PRISMAsync controls the reproduction of colours and handles the conversion of input colours (RGB, CMYK, spot colours) to printed colours on paper. PRISMAsync has two instruments for easy colour management across the entire workflow, colour presets and media families, so that the operator does not need to perform colour management tasks on a jobby-job basis.
More PRISMAsync colour information use. New or changed spot colours are stored in a custom spot colour library. You can import or export spot colour libraries. Colour mapping Use colour mappings to convert RGB and CMYK colour input values to specific output colours, for example your corporate colour. Colour mappings are useful to map colours in the input file to a fixed spot colour of a spot colour library.
