Agfa Apogee Integration

Get the best of both worlds with hybrid workflows

The hybrid workflow allows you to take advantage of the strengths of traditional offset and Fiery Driven™ digital presses.

The integration of Agfa :Apogee Prepress workflow and Fiery servers makes it easy and quick to direct jobs to the most appropriate print devices for the best production and highest cost efficiency. Using the familiar and intuitive user interface, Apogee users control a unified prepress workflow that shares the same job ticket and print-ready files for multiple devices providing:
