HIFLEX Webshop for print company networks: The implementation of PrintPlaza AG
PrintPlaza AG is a practical example of a webshop implementation for cooperating print companies. The Düsseldorf-based system has
been using HIFLEX Webshop for several years. A total of five print companies in Germany and the Benelux handle the jobs generated through webshop, all of which work efficiently and are networked via JDF/JMF interfaces. They consistently deliver print quality that is compliant with the Process Standard Offset (ISO 12647-2). This background ensures problem-free production at every location, regardless of the fact that each company is running presses and other machinery that differ from their partner manufacturers.
The product portfolio of PrintPlaza AG contains more than 300,000 different print products. They are configured "on-the-fly" by HIFLEX Webshop from only 140 individual items and feature options. The whole spectrum of products is covered, from flyers, brochures, business cards and folders, through to XXL posters or label sheets.

An example of successful networking.
The webshop implementation PrintPlaza.com
uses the JDF data format to exchange job
information with the MIS systems of different
printing companies in multiple locations.
