Xerox Corporation announced a new web-based tool that gives owners of Xerox iGen4 presses real-time intelligence for maximum productivity ¨C information that¡¯s available anywhere, anytime via a PC, Mac or tablet.

Xerox¡¯s Production Information Management System (PIMS) lets printers know instantly the production performance of all iGen4 presses in their shop. PIMS tracks information, such as machine status and productivity metrics, from any number of iGen4 presses regardless of physical location, giving printers access to information from a central location.

Using PIMS, operators can better balance printer loads to move projects smoothly through the shop. PIMS also helps identify bottlenecks and production issues to improve workflow, and provides historical data that can be used for trend analysis.

PIMS is the latest addition to the iGen4 platform, which continues to gain industry attention with the iGen4 EXP Press. Users report immediate productivity spikes fueled by the press¡¯ color management capabilities and largest sheet size in its class.
