Control certain job actions, such as process, print, and delete a specific job or all jobs on your Fiery servers.
Submit jobs to your Fiery servers from your apps with a simple command.
Retrieve current statuses such as printing and errors, so that you can gather real-time printer reports with simple commands.
Access previews of a processed job generated by your Fiery servers for soft proofing with custom apps and tools.
