Jobs come in all shapes and sizes, and may include perfect bound books, booklets, business cards, catalogs, greeting cards and more, each requiring unique prepress and finishing options. Skilled operators who understand prepress, job layout and finishing requirements dependent on sheet sizes must handle prepress tasks on a job-by-job basis to ensure these complex steps are completed accurately and quickly. As the number of jobs coming into the shop goes from a handful to dozens or even hundreds a day, you just can’t afford to have manual labor handling each job. With the Xerox® IntegratedPLUS Finishing Solution, job preparation and finishing setup are automatic. Xerox integrates a broad range of finishing options from world-class finishing partners to provide automation that keeps you productive while saving you time and reducing costly errors. This breakthrough solution enables end-to-end prepress and finishing automation that spans a variety of applications. Conventional finishing can tie up valuable assets on your shop floor. It’s also time consuming.

Enjoy inline convenience and offline booklet-making flexibility in a single automated finishing solution. Typically, you have a tough choice to make when it comes to booklet making: inline or offline. Inline means dedicating one booklet maker per print engine. Offline finishers can delay the process and are not as convenient as inline. With the Xerox® IntegratedPLUS Finishing Solution, you no longer have such tough choices. The Straight-line Convenience of Automatic Inline Finishing With this option, One-Touch Prepress takes care of job setup during prepress. Press sheets pass directly from the printer With the Xerox® Dual-Mode Sheet Feeder option by C.P. Bourg, you have end-to-end automation, inline and offline. Our laborsaving solution gives you three ways to take advantage of the automation: inline, offline or both. You can even incorporate non-Xerox® printers into an IntegratedPLUS Finishing Solution workflow. to the booklet maker, along with the Job Definition Format (JDF) data required for automatic finishing setup. Other than loading paper and unloading booklets, the operator is free to take care of other tasks and let the IntegratedPLUS Finishing Solution handle the details. The Straight-line Convenience of Automatic Inline Finishing With this option, FreeFlow® Core takes care of job setup during prepress. Press sheets pass directly from the printer to the booklet maker, along with the Job Definition Format (JDF) data required for automatic finishing setup. Other than loading paper and unloading booklets, the operator is free to take care of other tasks and let the IntegratedPLUS Finishing Solution handle the details. 5 Maximize productivity with efficient inline and offline booklet finishing. Your printer can be equipped with the exclusive Xerox® Dual-Mode Sheet Feeder and send sheets directly to an inline finisher. In addition, when the attached printer is not using the finisher, stacks from other printers or offset presses can be fed into the Dual-Mode Sheet Feeder to use the inline booklet maker as an offline booklet maker. When the Xerox® Dual-Mode Sheet Feeder is attached directly to a Xerox® production print engine and an inline finisher, you can automatically switch between inline or offline workflows— no operator intervention is required. The Dual-Mode Sheet Feeder can also be used as input to an offline booklet maker. A handheld scanner is used to read a barcode from a job-specific banner sheet that prints and travels with the printed stacks. The barcode is used to retrieve JDF information required for finishing. This ensures that the finisher is automatically configured correctly for every job. The Dual-Mode Sheet Feeder is a an exclusive Xerox® offering and it works with the entire Xerox® production fleet of engines. It combines the benefits of an inline booklet maker (as configurations permit) with the convenience and cost effectiveness of a shared offline finisher. 6 The Flexibility of Automatic Offline Finishing With this option, you can use Xerox FreeFlow Core to distribute the time and labor savings of automatic setup among multiple print engines. Your printers output booklet jobs to stack carts as usual, with the addition of a barcoded banner sheet matched to each job. ® ® At the finisher, an operator simply delivers a stack cart to the exclusive Xerox® Dual-Mode Sheet Feeder, scans the barcode with the handheld reader, presses “Start” and walks away to The Best of Both Worlds with Automatic Inline Finishing Combined with Automatic Offline Finishing For the ultimate in convenience and flexibility, this option enables automation of both inline and offline jobs using the Xerox® sheet feeder in its dual-mode capacity. The printer to which the finisher is connected can print non-booklet jobs to its stack cart even while the booklet maker is producing booklets from other engines. Suppose you receive booklet jobs such as provider directories or benefit booklets. The jobs will be automatically prepared for printing and sent to a printer directly attached to the booklet maker, where the booklets are created without operator intervention. perform other tasks. If the optional internal barcode reader is used, the operator can load the stack with multiple jobs, which may have different finishing requirements. Based on the JDF information, the sheet feeder will scan the banner page barcode, retrieve job information and finish the job all while feeding sheets from one or more trays. The internal barcode also enables finishing of variable length booklets that have been prepared with FreeFlow Core. The sheet feeder is even smart enough to suspend the job and alert an operator if covers are missing. You could also receive a calendar job. The system understands the required prepress and layout procedures and performs them automatically. Once this process is complete, you can then send that job to a different printer where it will be printed to a stack cart, along with a barcoded banner sheet. You can simply wheel the stack cart over to the printer that hosts the booklet maker, scan the barcode and the calendars are finished. The dualmode feature provides automation for inline or offline configurations and is compatible with FreeFlow® or EFI® Fiery® print servers. It’s the ultimate in asset utilization. 7 Efficient, On-Demand Perfect Binding When used as part of the Xerox® IntegratedPLUS Finishing Solution, book binding is as simple and error free as scanning a barcode.

FreeFlow Core submits both covers and content pages for simultaneous printing, so covers and book blocks are efficiently stacked in sequential order for proper matching from job to job. This effectively eliminates “work in process.” This level of automation is especially important when processing significant quantities of book orders per day, regardless of the quantities of books per order.
