Océ/Canon has been a world leader in imaging solutions, offering industrial-scale continuous-feed inkjet technologies for print production for many years. In combination with Canon’s highly sophisticated and versatile workflow platform PRISMAproduction, the Canon printer portfolio can address all requirements of today's complex and highly diverse application environments. Canon continuous-feed digital color printers offer near-offset quality production printing for corporate applications, print service providers, book publishers and commercial printers.

DALIM ES (Enterprise Solution) is an integrated media production platform, comprising media asset management (MAM) and elaborative collaboration tools. It offers a complete solution for the management and production of the many aspects of media services, regardless of the type of final output. Brand owners and retailers need efficient communication with all parties involved in the media production cycle. Parties involved in this creation process — marketers, designers and producers — save time by conducting advanced searches through the ES integrated MAM. Enterprise resource planning and business process management tools along with a streamlined technical workflow form a highly flexible centralized platform for all stakeholders in the media production process.

"The Océ digital presses are very fast and with the workflow, speed is everything to ensure that the presses are 'fed' to minimize idle times," explains Andreas Wagner, business development director at DALIM Software. "While the Océ PRISMAproduction Server is a very efficient platform for press operators, the DALIM ES system provides a very user-friendly interface for print buyers, allowing access to the workflow from any kind of device, be it a workstation or a mobile device."

Carol Werlé, DALIM Software CEO, also adds, "Canon presses and solutions for print production are a smart investment, particularly with the ever-increasing use of digital to satisfy commercial print's demand for short runs — including personalization. We are excited to combine forces with Canon to bridge the digital gap with print buyers. Our primary objective is to provide users of Canon presses a platform to easily deliver remote client collaboration and approval. We have learned from our customer base that visible, easily accessed customer service fosters long-term relationships. And, beyond providing job updates, DALIM ES extends into asset management and also allows seamless integration into ERP systems."

DALIM Software and Canon are currently working on the worldwide implementation of the agreement.
