Remote proofing

It is possible to use some Designjet printers as remote proofers, allowing jobs to be printed over public or private networks. By assigning the printer a valid IP address, and allowing the printer to receive instructions through a network router, the printer can be addressed and controlled from a distance.

The key to success for remote proofing is the printer's self-calibration routine, which will ensure that the printer is calibrated before being used for remote proofing.

With such installations, it is possible for a prepress firm to send a proof electronically over a network to a Designjet printer located in a client's place of business. This method of proofing saves the expense of shipping or delivering a proof to the client, since the proof is actually generated on their premises.
