Professional workflows and label printing with Konica Minoltas latest upgrade to AccurioPro Flux
Tuesday 22. February 2022 - The cost-effective AccurioPro Flux Version 9 enables customers to redesign their workflows to be more efficient. It is part of Konica Minoltas ongoing commitment to develop market-shaping innovations with advanced features to support customer business growth.
Konica Minolta has announced an upgrade to its popular AccurioPro Flux software with new features and functions including workflow automation and label printing integration as a new business area. Available in Essential, Premium and Ultimate versions, version 9 of the modular AccurioPro Flux suite enables multiple highlights and digital solutions for professional printing.
Highlights of AccurioPro Flux version 9 include:
Impressive personalisation of print data by adding variable data (VDP) from CSV files. Flyers, tickets, postcards and mailings are created quickly, easily and simply with this new feature.
The new Flux Label Impose option offers an automated workflow for Konica Minolta label systems and an impressive label personalisation capability: efficient use of label substrates, storage of imposition templates and advanced generation of VDP content from CSV files as text, barcode and QR code are just some of the benefits of the new Label Option.
The ability to add images to page content at the last moment. It is no longer necessary to create a new file, the user can make the changes conveniently in AccurioPro Flux.
Improved interaction with offline refinement: easy definition and customisation of tab marks, QR codes and (background) colours.
New and exclusive to AccurioPro Flux Ultimate is the individualisation of the online shop by means of a newly designed login page and, for example, product-related content.
There are also some new functions and options for the entry-level version AccurioPro Flux Essential: Flux MultiSeat for Essential allows parallel access from up to three workstations (for Premium up to a maximum of 15 users; PC and MAC; one licence per workstation required) and Flux Preflight Pro detects and fixes PDF problems and prevents production errors.
“With the latest upgrade of AccurioPro Flux, we offer our customers another way to work together to optimise their workflows and increase their creativity,” explains Svenja Schulz, Product Marketing Manager Professional Printing, Konica Minolta Business Solutions Germany. “Version 9 offers a wide range of new features and attractive options that – in line with our customers’ requirements – improve workflow and make our customers’ workflows more efficient. The new Flux Label Impose option also opens up new business opportunities for label printing on Konica Minolta label systems.”
“As a leader in print transformation, this is another example of how we are setting new standards in the creative reimagining of multi-channel marketing communications. It is also part of a digital transformation as we continue to expand our presence in production print markets in a rapidly changing world,” concludes Svenja Schulz.
