Invest Small, Print BIG
Affordable, flexible automation for every wide format printer
Wide format jobs are big; but margins are often small. Handling diverse jobs has traditionally meant significant investments in cutting-edge hardware and a deep bench of experienced operators. But hardware is pricey and skilled labor is scarce.
So, what if there was a smarter way to scale your output without scaling your spending?
Enfocus offers a unique, modular approach to automation. From PDF preflighting to complete, lights-out workflows, our software provides affordable levels of automation that can grow with your business.
Big output. Small investment. Maximum profit.
1. Automation Foundations
Start Smart with PitStop Pro
You don’t need a full automation suite to start streamlining wide format operations. PitStop Pro, the industry-leading preflight and correction tool, already eliminates tedious preflight and production tasks, including automatically:
- Adding bleed and trim areas
- Creating cut paths for precision finishing
- Integrating grommet marks for banners and signage
And that’s just scratching the surface of wide format production you can automate with PitStop Pro.
2. Expand (and contract) with Griffin
Next Level Nesting & Finishing
Griffin is an automated nesting tool that works seamlessly with PitStop Pro to maximize material use and streamline your finishing processes. Deploy Griffin and PitStop Pro together in your wide format production, and you’ll quickly see higher job accuracy, fewer errors, lower costs, and much faster turnaround times. Griffin automation helps you:
- Achieve optimal layouts for complex shapes
- Reduce waste for greater profitability
- Prepare files for cutting tables effortlessly
Using these two industry-leading tools in tandem can deliver major benefits for any scale of print business.
3. Make an Imposing Plan
Optimize Production with Phoenix
Phoenix is the AI-powered imposition and planning tool designed to streamline your wide-format printing workflow. Maximize material usage, minimize waste, and accelerate production with intelligent, automated decision-making.
Phoenix streamlines your planning process to:
-
Plan and impose on any sheet or substrate
-
Automatically gang jobs by substrate, priority, and other specifications
-
Generate accurate job estimates for different sheets and presses
-
Set data-driven marks for automated imposition and finishing.
By harnessing the power of AI and automation, Phoenix transforms complex planning into a simple, efficient process that saves huge amounts of time and money.
4. Switch on Full Automation
Unleash Hands-Off Workflows with Switch
Once you’re ready to maximize your automation efficiency, the choice is simple: deploy Switch for wide format printing to automate everything from job submission to output, including job routing, and online approvals. Switch also automates all your PitStop Pro and Griffin production tasks, making them completely hands off. Use Switch to:
- Automate all the capabilities of PitStop Pro and Griffin
- Connect prepress, production, and customer-facing systems
- Integrate with MIS/ERP/eCommerce platforms

How you use Switch in automating your production processes is limited only by your imagination.

Maximize Your Hardware Investments

The result is decreased throughput and profit. Enfocus solutions automate and optimize wide format job preparation, guaranteeing a better return on your existing investments.
