HEIDELBERG , GERMANY—  Heidelberger is completely revamping its Prinect print shop workflow, which will now be available in the cloud. The new workflow suite is called “Prinect Direct” and marks a further milestone on the way to autonomous production in print shops. All the new workflow’s functions will gradually be made available to customers in the form of cloud-based apps. “With the new Prinect Direct cloud-based workflow, HEIDELBERG is moving a big step closer to autonomous production in print shops in line with our Smart Print Shop concept,” says Christopher Berti, Head of Software Solutions at HEIDELBERG. “The new Prinect apps eliminate most manual steps throughout a print shop’s production process – from job creation all the way through to delivery of the finished print product,” he adds.
