Media-based workflow Media-based workflow The media catalog is the backbone of the media-based workflow. The media catalog contains the media that the print system supports. The prepress staff select the media for the job from the media catalog. The control panel shows the print operator the media the job needs. The media and color expert defines the media and color settings once in the media catalog. Prepress staff select the required media from the media catalog. Print operator loads and assigns the media in the paper trays. [5] Media-based workflow During the initial configuration of the print system, the media catalog is filled with media and media attributes. Media belong to a media family, which ensures optimal color output settings.

The print operator is responsible for the job planning and the print production, but can also perform last-minute job changes and color management from the control panel. • The media in the media catalog store print quality attributes that the entire print system uses. Each time you select the media from the media catalog, the print system automatically applies the same media quality settings. • The control panel, the printer driver and the PRISMA software access the same media catalog. • You can use the media catalog for copy jobs. Define the media attributes on the control panel or with the Settings Editor. System configuration and maintenance on page 180 (See ) 32 Chapter 2 - Explore the print system imagePRESS C800 Series
