Printers Integration: CloudBerry-Based Printing for Xerox Versant

Printers Integration: CloudBerry-Based Printing for Xerox Versant

A resilient cloud-based printing pipeline built as an alternative to Fiery, enabling automated production on Xerox Versant printers.

A resilient cloud-based printing pipeline built as an alternative to Fiery, enabling automated production on Xerox Versant printers.

PROBLEMS WE SOLVED

Incompatibility with Fiery

The new Xerox Versant printer could not consistently receive or process print jobs via Fiery.

Risk of production downtime

Without a fallback solution, order printing could be completely blocked.

No automated file-based workflow

The client needed a way to manage print jobs without manual intervention.

Lack of visibility into print job states

There was no clear way to track whether a file was ready, printing, failed, or completed.

OUR SOLUTIONS

CloudBerry-based printing architecture

We implemented CloudBerry as the core printing bridge, using AWS S3 buckets as a state-driven job management system.

S3-driven print lifecycle

Custom logic was built around S3 buckets to represent each stage of the printing process: incoming print jobs, ready-to-print files, processing, completed prints, failed or retry states. Bucket structure itself became a source of truth for job status.

Custom file manipulation logic

We implemented automated logic for file preparation, renaming and formatting, moving files between buckets and status synchronization with the backend.

Full backend integration

The printing pipeline is fully connected to the main system: order statuses update automatically, print progress is reflected in admin panels, failures trigger retries or alerts.

OVERVIEW

The client faced a critical production challenge during a printer infrastructure upgrade. Their new industrial printer — Xerox Versant — could not reliably operate through the existing Fiery (DFE) workflow. This blocked automated printing and created a serious risk to daily order fulfillment.

We designed and implemented an alternative cloud-based printing pipeline using CloudBerry and AWS S3, allowing the printer to operate independently of Fiery while remaining fully automated, trackable, and scalable.

RESULTS

RESULTS

  • Zero production downtime. Printing continues even when Fiery is unavailable or unstable.

  • Fully automated printing workflow. No manual file handling or printer-side intervention required.

  • Clear visibility into print status. Each order’s printing stage is always known and traceable.

  • Flexible & extensible architecture. The same logic can be reused for other printers or facilities.

  • Successful integration with Xerox Versant. The printer operates reliably at production scale using cloud-based logic.
