System overview

The IC-309 print controller, powered by Creo Server Technology,
for the Konica Minolta bizhub PRESS C1070/C1070P/C1060 is an
on-demand prepress system that runs on a Microsoft Windows
Embedded Standard 7 (WES) SP1 operating system and uses
advanced prepress technologies to drive the Konica Minolta
bizhub PRESS C1070/C1070P/C1060.

The IC-309 print controller enables you to print from computers
running the Microsoft Windows operating system, Apple Mac OS X
operating system software, and The Open Group UNIX client
workstations. Using raster image processor (RIP) technology, the
IC-309 print controller performs pre-RIP preflight on each file that
is imported to the IC-309 print controller and converts image files
in page-description language (PDL) formats (for example, Adobe
PostScript, PDF, and variable data printing formats) to a suitable
ready-to-print (RTP) format for direct high-quality digital printing.
The IC-309 print controller also streamlines the printing process by
allowing you to print with preset workflows.

In combination with the printer, the IC-309 print controller enables
you to efficiently print business cards, print flyers, brochures,
pamphlets, catalogs, short-run trials, and print-on-demand
publications.

The IC-309 print controller combines RIP functionalities,
automation, control tools, and special hardware development
capabilities with Windows-based architecture.

If you have the Trans Pack, the IC-309 print controller supports
transactional printing using the IPDS workflow including
bidirectional communication with an IPDS host. You can configure
the IC-309 print controller to either:

File submission mode, which enables you to print from any
computer, import and process all the supported file formats,
apply and edit the job parameters, and manage your files.

IPDS mode, which enables you to process and print IPDS jobs
from the IPDS host computer. In IPDS mode you can apply and
edit the IPDS printer parameters.
