HP has introduced new One Package workflow suite, which can be used with PageWide industrial corrugated presses.
Claimed to be the industry’s first digital corrugated workflow ecosystem, the new package provides software and solutions from HP and partners to help converters maximize the flexibility of digital production.
HP One Package is suitable to be used with HP’s corrugated digital presses, including the HP PageWide C500 press for post-print and HP PageWide T1190 for pre-print.
HP One Package workflow is said to streamline submission and preparation of orders, enabling converters to use an array of digital value-added possibilities, including solutions for brands’ consumer engagement and piracy protection using variable data, imagery and unique ID serialization.
The new suite is also compatible with third-party workflow solutions, including MIS and pre-press, HP’s print servers, color management tools, and PrintOS cloud-based management applications.
HP PageWide industrial division general manager Eric Wiesner said: “HP is revolutionizing corrugated printing with digital flexibility, offering high-volume productivity, food-safe inks, and now a sophisticated and integrated workflow solution to drive corrugated jobs from order to fulfillment.
“Whether converters adopt a strategy for digital pre-print or digital post-print, HP One Package provides an integrated set of solutions for end-to-end productivity.”
HP One Package enables converters to integrate HP digital presses into existing production and business workflows.
HP One Package workflow suite includes HP production prime print server for PageWide C500 press and HP production elite print server for HP PageWide T400S and T1100 series presses.
The suite also includes HP One Package Elite automation software for high-volume digital pre-print applications and HP PrintOS cloud-based print software platform for converters to transform the management of IT, production and business.
HP One Package’s color management tools and services will help converters to meet brand color standards and optimize color results in multiple color modes.
In addition, the suite includes variable data printing (VDP) tools to carry out high-value jobs for brands, and embedded marks and codes that allow tracking and tracing for brand protection, supply chain efficiency and customer engagement.
