The FreeFlow Accxes Controller powers the fleet. Send your jobs from a variety of network environments.

The FreeFlow Accxes Controller

Gain from a tradition ofproductivity advances—today and well into the future.Unparalleled concurrency. You’ll get morework done per unit of time than with any other controller in this class. One reason is that FreeFlow Accxes fully overlaps copying, printing, and scan-to-file jobs.

Superior rendering. Customized imagingalgorithms optimize the performance and image output quality of every printer it supports, as well as the Wide Format Scan System.

High security. FreeFlow Accxes has a built-in firewall to inhibit electronic invasion andprotect it against worms and viruses. Inaddition, an optional three-pass imageoverwrite feature ensures information iserased from the hard drive.

Excellent fidelity. Xerox uses bothindependent test suites and its own extensivetesting to ensure FreeFlow Accxes interpretseach format with high integrity. It also supportsmost engineering and graphic formats, bothvector and raster.

Easy-to-use client software. It’s hard to over-estimate how much the Accxes Client Tools boostproductivity. For example, the Document SubmitTool makes it easy to print complex, collated sets

that used to require manual assembly and copying.

Flexible printer drivers. Users can print directlyfrom a broad range of business and engineering

applications.

Intuitive production or walk-up copying. You’ll have a consistent interface for copying that’s rich enough

for complex production, yet easy enough for casualcopying. And users won’t have to push any buttons

to make a simple copy.

Once again, Xerox brings a wholenew level of productivity to wide-format production. The XeroxFreeFlow Accxes controller offersmajor improvements in processingspeed, while maintaining the same features and functionality as earlier releases.Like its predecessors, the FreeFlow AccxesController includes a dedicated hardware server that runs the unique FreeFlow AccxesController firmware, including a set of printerdrivers for use with graphics, business orengineering applications. In addition, everyFreeFlow Accxes Controller comes with a suiteof supporting client tools for PCs or Sun™

Solaris™ workstations.

Keep your system up-to-dateInstead of buying new hardware every time you want new performance, the FreeFlowAccxes Controller lets you simply upgrade bydownloading new features, often at no cost.This makes the FreeFlow Accxes Controller a great value. Plus, there’s no need to schedulea service call for upgrades and enhancements,except in rare cases, such as adding a scanner.

No need to learn a new workflowWith FreeFlow Accxes, you won’t be working at the operating system level. The operatingsystem is completely hidden, so there’s nographical or command line interface to dealwith. Everything can be done using the WebPrint Management Tool, Accxes Client Tools, or the copier user interface. And because we use a Linux operating system, FreeFlowAccxes provides a greater level of security.

Take command of your wide-format production

with FreeFlow™ Accxes™.
