Enfocus has announced the game-changing launch of the new Xeikon X-800 app on the Enfocus AppStore in a major boost for businesses using the Xeikon platform.

Designed to streamline and enhance print production workflows, this innovative app connects directly with Xeikon’s X-800 Digital Front End (DFE) software, which powers Xeikon digital printing presses. The Xeikon X-800 app simplifies the process of preparing production files, sending them seamlessly to the X-800 DFE. It can also manage comprehensive machine setups including substrate selection, quantity, print quality, and more. Additionally, the app provides real-time updates on key production metrics such as printing times, material consumption, and production statuses.

The Xeikon X-800 app extends the capabilities of Enfocus Switch, enabling two-way communication with other systems such as Management Information Systems (MIS), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems, and eCommerce platforms. This ensures that jobs are efficiently prepared for production while also delivering critical data, such as printing times, material consumption, and production statuses back to these systems for better decision-making and operational efficiency.

Davy Verstaen, Appstore Manager at Enfocus, expressed his excitement about the launch, saying, "The Xeikon X-800 app is a game-changer for print professionals. By integrating the app with our Enfocus Switch platform, we are enabling our users to automate and optimize their workflows like never before. The ability to connect with various systems and receive real-time production data ensures that our customers can operate at peak efficiency."

Dimitri Van Gaever, Director of Business Development at Xeikon, added: "We are proud to partner with Enfocus in bringing the Xeikon X-800 app to the market. This app not only enhances the functionality of our X-800 software but also provides our customers with the tools they need to stay competitive in an increasingly demanding industry. The real-time data and seamless integration capabilities are critical for businesses looking to maximize their productivity and minimize waste."

Attendees of Printing United 2024, held between September 10-12 at the world-famous Las Vegas Convention Center, will have the exclusive opportunity to see the Xeikon X-800 app in action. Demonstrations will take place at the Enfocus booth (C113), where industry professionals can experience firsthand how this app can transform the print production process.
