Only very few control operators at a central unit supervise the whole production plant. „One-button-press“ reduce the requirements in human skills. the press becomes intelligent enough to control the functionality itself. „resilience press“ increase the reliability of the system. It has to run in a stable manner, tolerant to mis-adjustments and unexpected conditions. 12 sources: pmTUC (9/2010) authors: A. Hübler State of the Art Benchmark is a pool of laser printers: Electro photography is more complex than offset printing, gravure or flexography! Nevertheless a laser printer pool needs only a few operators, restocking the paper and changing toner cartridge. the print jobs are automatically spooled by a server in the prepress department.
