HP - Job instructions

Automate job instructions to your HP machine

The CERM-HP Indigo integration has the purpose of sending job instructions to the HP Indigo DFE (Digital Front End) according to the standard JDF-JMF interface.

The print job in question is automatically set up on the HP Indigo machine and appears in the printing queue, with all relevant information about quantities to print, digital media and references to artwork files.

• Automating machine configuration and optimizing output for waste management
  
  Subsequently, the HP Indigo machine adjusts its settings and configurations before starting, and monitors its output.
  
  The submitted job instructions out of the CERM MIS contain all information about the quantities to produce, to make sure you have just enough semi-finished goods for the required finishing steps.

• Job instructions and Shopfloor Data Collection
  
  Job instructions contain a specific set of data and are therefore the core foundation of Shopfloor Data Collection (SFDC). The HP Indigo machine can return data to the CERM MIS via the PrintOS APIs. This includes counter data for material consumption, click consumption and time registration.
