The Power to Serve

This is not the case on system-dependent controllers. This fact is most important in times of heavy network loads. Typically prepress operations experience periods near the end of a day when large amounts of work need to be finished before the day is over. The independent controller, with its RISC processor, is much more capable of handling the heavy loads during these periods. The PCI-based controller is contending with the system's processor. Another important point in favor of the independent controller is obvious when a system fails.
