Fiery proServer

High-productivity digital front ends

Fiery® proServers combine Fiery XF with cutting-edge server hardware. They provide color management, production tools, workflow, and Fiery’s FAST technology to provide industry-leading turnkey solutions for your wide to superwide print production — all with the unrivaled power of Fiery Command WorkStation® digital print job management.

Overview

Combined with Fiery XF 8’s built-in production tools, professional color management, and flexible workflow possibilities, Fiery proServer will enhance your wide or superwide print business.

Unrivaled print job management

Fiery proServers benefit from Fiery Command WorkStation® — the world’s most popular interface for the management, layout, and editing of digital print jobs. Command WorkStation can connect to multiple Fiery servers at a time, whether driving inkjet or cutsheet printers for unified print job management through a single interface. The visual Fiery Job Editor allows you to apply job-specific settings on the fly, or to change properties beyond workflow defaults. The Fiery Job Center delivers unrivaled print job management, with the same power and usability for both Microsoft® Windows® and Apple® macOS® users. Learn more.

Maximum productivity and throughput

Exclusive Fiery Accelerated System Technology (FAST RIP), accelerates RIPping speeds by an average of 5 times. The CUDA-enabled FAST Processing Option speeds up file processing further by up to 13 times and an average of 6 times*. Fiery XF 8 has automation levels to suit everyone, and a customizable interface that can be tailored to suit the way each individual prefers to operate. Its award-winning cross-platform client interface reduces learning curves, and creates production efficiencies in mixed-technology print rooms resulting in maximum productivity and throughput.

* FAST Processing performance gains are dependent on the FAST Processing level used. Factors mentioned are based on the latest Fiery proServer Premium configuration. FAST Processing acceleration is applied on top of FAST RIP.

Ultimate color, quality, and control

Proof-grade color controls and verification mean industry standard compliant color results — no matter what the application or product being produced. 100% Fiery-developed color management using ICC technology, combined with sophisticated iterative spot and process color optimization routines deliver superior color. Its screening algorithms are engineered to maximize both print quality and printer performance, providing ultimate color, quality and control, in the least amount of time. Learn more.
