FIERY SYSTEM 8e - Quick reference FIERY SYSTEM 8e RELEASE 2 FEATURE NAME Calibration Enhancements Fiery System 8e New & Enhanced Features, Advantages & Benefits Standard Features KEY FUNCTIONS & FEATURES Fiery controllers running Fiery System 8e remember the last measurements in a calibration set and reach accurate calibrated output every time a print is made; it is automatically corrected using the appropriate calibration set. When users are done measuring patches, they have the following three alternatives: 1. Click the Apply button to have their measurements saved to the server. 2. Click the Apply to all Calibration Sets button to have the calibration measurements copied to all calibrations sets on the server. 3. Individually select which calibration sets to have measurements copied to. Alternatives #2 and #3 are especially convenient for users who want the benefits of calibration for every media, but do not want to invest the time required to perform optimal calibration for every individual media. FIERY ADVANTAGE • Multiple calibration options make Fiery a viable solution for most color printing applications. CUSTOMER BENEFITS • Reduces time in the calibration process. • Makes it easy to keep uniformity through all media types available in the system while maintaining optimal quality for specific ones. • Improves quality in calibration, ensuring increased precision when fingerprinting the printer device. Composite Overprint of CMYK & Spot Colors • Fiery can recognize those elements from a composite file submitted directly from the native application (e.g., InDesign) and properly render the spot colors in them.. • In a PDF workflow, Fiery automatically recognizes transparencies and overprints in order to print in a color corrected and properly color rendered output. • Fiery supports Composite Overprint from applications that output PS/PDF overprints according to both Adobe and Quark standards. Files generated by the current versions of the applications listed below are supported: • Adobe Acrobat. • Adobe Illustrator. • Adobe InDesign. • Quark XPress. • Corel Draw. • Adobe Free Hand. • Known for powerful color capabilities, Fiery provides more powerful color (CMYK and RGB) functionality than any other comparably priced solution. • Document designers speed up the printing process by sending jobs as composite from InDesign, rather than as separations. • Fiery increases productivity. It accelerates processing and spool times by sending a single composite file instead of four separated files over the network. • For PDF workflows, customers improve the quality of the output. For native applications (e.g., Quark), customers improve the throughput by sending jobs as composites rather than separations. • Fierys ensure a more accurate print of what the document creator specified. Support for Rich Black • The EFI Rich Black feature, applicable to both text and graphics, provides the option of giving the appearance of a fuller, richer black by laying 50% cyan toner under 100% black toner. • Fiery provides multiple options that empower users to adjust output to meet specific needs, positioning Fiery as a great solution in any color printing environment. • Can help avoid trapping issues when printing small areas of black, especially black text on a colored background. • Improves image quality in black elements. 10
