Manage your portfolio with the Xerox iGen3

Following your stock market portfolio might not be so fun these days. But, managing your customer portfolio with the Xerox iGen3 or Xerox iGen3 110 is a lot easier and more productive.
With the new technology in the Xerox iGen printer, companies are able to separate customers into portfolios according to relevant criteria. The best part of portfolio management is that commercial printers can then use variable data printing to target specific customers or customer groups.

Imagine sending a direct mail piece that spoke directly to a given consumer. Customers improve their rate of return and your rate of return business improves right alongside it.

If you're looking for help managing portfolios, consider JJ Bender. We offer advice, products, and service on everything from variable data printing to digital duplicators.

The right front end for your Xerox 8000

First impressions might be everything. But in our business, first impressions are just that; first impressions. What matters is the 9,000th impression of the day and that is the exact same as the first impression. With that in mind, we wanted to take a look at the two main front end options for the Xerox 8000 today.

The Xerox DocuColor 8000 digital press is the latest in digital color options. The two primary front end computer choices are the CREO Spire & the Fiery EFI Server.

Creo Spire

The Spire CXP8000 server is the flashier of the two products. Some consider it more user friendly and believe it offers easier access to high-end services such as variable data printing and on-demand jobs. The CREO Spire is known for having excellent color-management software and an easy-to-learn interface. Spire server uses the JDF standard, which helps when dealing with vendors across the industry.

EFI Fiery XP 8000
EFI's Fiery EXP8000 is a workhorse, specifically designed for the commercial printing industry. This might be the better all-around option, offering quality images and improved turnaround time. The EXP8000 is designed for the big jobs; designed specially for the Xerox DocuColor 8000. It's the standard server used with the Xerox 8000. Users tend to like that an unlimited number of custom imposition templates can be created, independent of platform or file format. It is configured for variable data printing and color management as well.

Ultimately, it's your choice depending on your digital color needs and budget. If you need more information, equipment, or a front-end, we hope you'll visit us at JJ Bender.
