IBM patented technology enables powerful RIP
and print performance, delivering highly complex,
fully variable content at high speeds.
The Infoprint Color 130 Plus combines the data integrity and resource
management capabilities of AFP with the graphics strength of PostScript.
Efficiency in printing
variable content
When every page is unique, automatic
page level recovery increases printing
efficiency. If an error occurs in the middle
of a job, AFP page level control allows the
job to be continued, starting from the
page where the error occurred rather
than re-running the job. If a failure occurs
on page 4,999 of a 10,000 page job, the
job can be restarted or redirected to
another Infoprint Color 130 Plus. In either
case, because page level error recovery
is automated, printing will start on page
4,999 automatically under system control.
Page level error recovery, when compared
to systems that provide job level recovery,
can significantly reduce production costs
associated with waste from lost pages
and labor required to re-create print jobs.
Data integrity for variable content
For variable content jobs it is crucial that
the right data — images, text, fonts, colors
— are printed on the right page. AFP
provides management of the content so
that you know, for example, that each
customer’s statement printed with the
right information on it. Because AFP
manages every object from the output
server through the printer, job tickets
cannot be mixed accidentally.
Leveraging your investment in
PostScript graphics
The Infoprint Color 130 Plus, in
combination with IBM’s AFP architecture
and enhancements to IBM’s Infoprint
Manager and PSF/MVS
™
software, allows
you to turn your data into 1:1 marketing
tools with graphic arts quality. Variable
data objects created from graphic arts
and design applications, including
QuarkXPress
™
, Adobe
®
InDesign
™
and
PageMaker
®
can be used in AFP color
applications. The Infoprint Color 130 Plus
has the ability to print full-color applications
that use EPS (Encapsulated PostScript),
TIFF, GIF, and JPEG input as resources for
variable data documents.
Support for a broad range
of applications
With Infoprint Manager for AIX included in
the solution, Infoprint Color 130 Plus can
print full-color applications generated in
Adobe PostScript
®
Level 3
™
and PDF 1.3.
All the benefits of AFP’s job management
and page level error recovery capabilities
are available for full-color PostScript high-
volume production applications.
High-throughput,
personalized printing
At the heart of the Infoprint Color 130 Plus
solution is the Advanced Function
Common Control Unit
™
(AFCCU
™
), which
supports a broader range of variable
content applications on a single system at
speeds up to 30 percent faster than our
previous offering. Cutting edge technology,
the AFCCU printer controller incorporates
IBM’s latest RISC technology. The controller
