In the world of photo printing, wetlabs were once the standard. But with the advent of drylab technology, more and more photo retailers are making the switch. 
One such retailer in Holland has made the transition from wetlab to drylab, with the help of BlueFX’s custom workflow solution.

The Challenge of Integrating Old and New Technology

With his existing Fujifilm Frontier© 375 minilab he includes one Epson SureLab D700 Drylab Inkjet printer to add capacity but also in anticipation for the day when he has to say goodbye to the Old Master
The challenge was seamlessly integrating the new drylab with the old wetlab, as well as accommodating incoming orders from multiple sources.

Accommodating Multiple Order Sources

That’s where BlueFX came in. With our custom workflow solution, the retailer was able to take in orders from their Pixsy kiosk, as well as two web download streams, and intelligently print to both the old and new machines – Wet and Dry. 
Automatically printing directly both to the Epson SureLab D700 Drylab but also to the Frontier Wetlab via C4/C5, splitting and directing incoming orders to the printer having matching roll size and media, with minilab-type functionality.

Flexibility for Future Expansion

But what if the print size can’t fit on either printer? Send to the Plotter! With an automated digital workflow in place, the retailer now has the flexibility to add more SureLab D700s or replace the old Frontier wetlab.
The scene is set.
