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.
