Fiery LLC recently unveiled new AI-driven features, including Fiery InkWise for ink stock management and an intelligent job ticketing assistant.
Fiery InkWise addresses the complexities of manual ink management by introducing an AI-powered assistant. That assistant predicts when and how much ink should be ordered, allowing customers to keep reduced inventory levels. Meanwhile, the new AI-driven job ticketing feature analyzes jobs and automatically prepares tickets. The feature covers media selection, prepress processes, finishing and more.
“We are continuously exploring how AI technology can make Fiery workflows as easy as interacting with a virtual assistant,” says Toby Weiss, Fiery’s CEO. “… we are excited to demonstrate AI’s ability to define print settings based on file content and propose tasks prior to ticket creation. Leveraging AI in the job ticketing process helps boost productivity, enabling operators of all skill levels to quickly process a variety of print jobs.”
The independent provider of digital front ends (DFEs) is also advancing print automation with the upcoming release of Fiery JobFlow prepress workflow software. Fiery JobFlow automates job preparation steps to ensure files are print-ready with minimal manual intervention. It uses AI to improve image resolution, simplify preflight reports, and enable printing by scanning a barcode or using voice commands with your phone.
