Fiery JDF workflow

When a job is processed, the Fiery server uses JMF (JDF's Job Messaging Format) to send back status and audit information to the JDF job-submitting application.

When a JDF job is submitted to the Fiery server, the job is checked for any errors or conflicts. If there are none, the operator can select additional print actions from the Actions menu in Command WorkStation, or choose to print the job directly.

When an error is found, the job is shown with an error in the Job Status column.

You can choose to fix or ignore JDF ticket conflicts in the Job Errors window. If a conflict is ignored, the job may print but with missing JDF information.

After a JDF job is printed, a job completion message is automatically returned to the submitting application if the Fiery server has been configured for Auto Close. For Manual Close, the operator needs to close the job through the Command WorkStation window after the job has finished printing.
