Hot Folders (Option)

This utility allows for the printing of PDFs without using a dedicated printer driver, a “Hot Folder” is created on the PC desktop, users then simply drag the PDF (or PostScript / Tiff file) onto the folder and the job will be sent to the Fiery controller be processed and printed.

Different settings can be applied to different folders, for example –

One folder named (Duplex) is set up to simply Duplex all pages of a PDF when it’s sent to this folder

A second folder could be set up for Double siding and to be stapled in the top left hand corner.

A third Folder could be set up to produce a Booklet that’s A4 in size, its folded and saddle stapled.

This makes it easier for the general user to print files, this feature is also useful in a print room type environment, and a Folder may be named after a Customer who always wants the same job settings applied to all of their jobs when they are printed.

Hot Folder Icons are placed on the Desktop, PDF files are then dragged onto these Icons and the Jobs sent to the Controller. These Icons could be different Job Settings or named for a particular customer. Hot Folder settings are easily changed.

Efi Impose (Option)

The simplest form of Imposition is the creation of a booklet, the Ricoh RPCS & PCL drivers have a Function that will allow the pages to be re paginated so that when the document is stapled and folded the pages are in the correct order.

Basic Imposition is included within the Fiery driver, for easy Booklet creation, there is also another way of Imposing documents, and this is on the controller and is therefore independent of driver and operating system sending the print job.

There are a number of standard Templates that are pre defined or users can control the settings themselves.
