On-Demand Turns Full-Production Color

Karat Digital Press, the Scitex and KBA joint venture, demonstrated the digitally integrated offset press, 74 Karat, sporting an EFI Fiery-powered DFE. EFI's technology allows users of Karat's press to submit jobs digitally by disk or directly over the Internet. Streamlined file sharing between the 74 Karat, and devices already supported by EFI technology, is one of the keys to the future Internet-enabled service the two technology companies are developing. Through its connection to the EFI front end, the 74 Karat can offer a complete suite of applications, including document archiving, document management, document distribution and printing on a single printer or multiple printers.
