- Saving jobs and opening them at a later time.
Increase profits and print shop capacity
Every minute saved reduces labor cost and opens up capacity for additional work. JobMaster™ automates manual tasks so they take less time to complete. And, it helps you keep customers happy and loyal, even when they submit lots of change requests. Empower your operators to:
- Navigate long documents quickly and locate pages instantly after selecting certain page properties.
- Integrate and clean up hard-copy pages: deskew and despeckle scanned pages, edit images, adjust page fit to media sizes, mask unwanted content and more.
- Apply page numbering sequences that you can store in templates for future use.
- Make last-minute changes to document content.
- Export assembled PDFs to customers for proofing and approval.
Push production print productivity even higher
True usability reduces clicks, and it also provides an intuitive, practical user experience. JobMaster™ excels at usability, with thoughtful enhancements that make it easier for operators to do their jobs better:
- Control settings without leaving the makeready application.
- Preserve window and pane size for a consistent view after re-opening the application.
- Expedite sheet size selections and job saves because the software remembers frequently used settings.
