Color presetting profiles for different papers, inks, and printing conditions are automatically optimized. Ink fountain liner wear is automatically compensated

Shortest makeready times

Color Fast Solution: Various software applications running automatically in the background ensure fast inking-up with minimal waste and a stable ink-water balance. This is achieved with the following functions among others:

• Automatic ink vibrator throw-off through optimized vibrator shutdown at the end of the job
• “Smart Restart” for improved preinking and less start-up waste after printing is interrupted
• Status-controlled preinking programs
• “Color Booster” for accelerated inking unit reactions
• Speed-compensated predampening programs for less start-up waste
• “Green light” signals to the operator when ink or register corrections are complete and new settings can be made or a control sheet removed
• Speed-compensated predampening programs for less start-up waste with the Speedmaster XL 75 Anicolor

Unique in offset printing: fully automated job changing – from the last to the first good sheet until production starts – Push to Stop Vital first step towards Push to Stop and therefore a new level of productivity – the new Prinect Press Center XL 2 with Wallscreen XL and Intellistart 2 in combination with the Speedmaster boasts the following components:

• Seamless transition between process steps with Intellistart 2. For the first time, up to 30 follow-up orders can be prepared and released using the job queue while production is still underway
• It is also possible to process these released jobs fully automated by having the makeready process for the next job start automatically after the previous job ends
• The Prinect Inpress Control 2 inline color measurement system with the new Quality Assist function of Intellistart 2 automatically switches the machine to “production run” and in so doing switches on the good-sheet counter once the quality requirements are met
• In addition, InsertStar can insert a tape fully automatically at this point in order to separate good sheets from waste paper

• The high level of automation of the press, workflow integration, processes with Prinect, and the machine availability offered by smart, preventative services all come together to increase the level of uninterrupted productivity
• Systematic elimination of downtimes reduces the operator’s workload and maximizes the productivity of the overall process

Shortest makeready times

• New job preparation system for preparing more jobs with fewer clicks
• Controlling the setup process on the Wallscreen XL makes it possible to display all the information about a job at a glance
• Another significant increase in transparency and a reduction in the amount of setup work
• New, extended job list on the Wallscreen XL for clear classification of the job parameters into individual columns that can be sorted and therefore offer more information at a glance. Job data from the Prinect workflow such as process and spot colors, format, and grammage is displayed directly
• Improved job identification and faster job changes as well as even shorter setup times, since jobs with the same format or process and spot colors can be processed one after the other in succession, meaning that fewer press settings need to be changed
• Complete integration makes it possible to select a job, review the job data transparently at a glance, then select and release a job straight away without any manual input
• The result: select and release jobs for printing with just 2 clicks!

Maximum user-friendliness

• Unique overview of all machine processes with Wallscreen XL, the large screen integrated into the ambient light shield
• Operation is made even more direct with the new operating philosophy with swipe control, reorganized interface with four main screens and a favorites bar
• Intellistart 2 automatically generates all the steps required for intelligent job changes and provides maximum transparency across all active and queued processes

• Both the manual processes performed by the operator during challenging job changes and the fully automatic processes performed in parallel are modeled on a single timeline in a time-optimized order for easy navigation through even complex makeready processes
• The new myWallscreen function makes it possible to query and compile information about the press on a user-specific basis. For example, several views can be custom displayed in myScreen
• Complete transparency during setup and production with the new Intellistart 2 and myWallscreen functions
• Operation of adapted Prinect applications and external applications via remote desktop connections permits effective workflow integration
