At PRINTING United 2026 in Las Vegas, Pat McGrew meets Jazelle from Fiery for a first look at a new capability in Fiery ImageViewer — Object Editor.
Anyone working in production knows the problem.
A file has already reached the Fiery, it has been RIPped, and then somebody notices that one element isn’t quite right. Traditionally, that could mean sending the job back to prepress, reopening the original file, making the correction in an application such as Photoshop, resubmitting the file and RIPping it again.
Object Editor is designed to shorten that process.
Fiery ImageViewer already allows operators to inspect RIPped files at full resolution and make color adjustments directly at the DFE. With the new Object Editor, AI-based technology can identify individual objects within the rasterized page, allowing the operator to select one specific element and make a targeted color correction without affecting everything around it.
That means a background, image or other element can potentially be adjusted directly in production while the job remains on the Fiery server.
And importantly, the correction isn’t simply lost after printing. The edited job remains available through Fiery Command WorkStation, allowing operators to return to it, review what was changed and reuse the corrected version when necessary.
For busy production environments receiving large numbers of jobs through web-to-print or automated workflows, avoiding unnecessary trips back to prepress can save valuable time and keep presses moving.
Object Editor will be introduced with Fiery’s next-generation FS800 Pro platform, making it another example of how AI is being used not as a headline, but to solve a very specific production problem.

Doug Richards · Product Partner Line Manager...
A surprising amount of print production still starts with an email. At PRINTING United 2026 in Las Vegas, Pat McGrew meets Doug Richards from Fiery to see how Fiery Scribe can remove much of the manual work normally involved in turning those emails into production-ready jobs. The traditional process is familiar. An operator opens the email, reads the customer instructions, downloads the attached PDF, imports it into the Fiery, interprets the specifications, sets copies, media, color, imposition and finishing — and only then can the job move toward production. Fiery Scribe uses AI to shorten that process dramatically. A customer can simply send an email describing what they want — perhaps 25 black-and-white booklets — and attach the PDF. Scribe interprets the request, applies the relevant job properties and sends the file directly into Fiery Command WorkStation, ready for the operator to review. The human is still in control. If information is missing or something needs clarification, the operator can see both the original request and the settings Scribe has applied, make adjustments and communicate back with the customer. For busy print environments where dozens of jobs arrive through email every day, removing repetitive job-entry clicks can create a significant productivity gain. Doug describes one early user returning to an inbox containing 40 untouched job requests and using Scribe to quickly move those emails into the Fiery workflow instead of manually recreating each job. Fiery Scribe supports selected FS500 Pro/FS500 servers and later and is available as a licensed application within Command WorkStation. Email in. Job ticket created. Operator checks it. Print.
