What printsoftware does

Print Software Sp. z o.o. is a Polish private systems integrator founded in 2005, specializing in enterprise software for the printing and packaging industry. The company resells, implements, and supports a portfolio that centers on Optimus Dash MIS (a UK-origin ERP/MIS for printing houses) and VoluPack ERP (for corrugated board manufacturers), supplemented by MES, QMS, Web2Print (OnPrintShop, Flex4), PDF preflight (Callas pdfToolbox), imposition (IMP, Ultimate Impostrip), workflow automation (Corbit Workflow, Aleyant tFLOW), packaging design (Picador CAD, iC3D), color management, and digital print inspection (Global Vision). Integration capabilities include direct PLC-to-MES data capture and an open API layer that ties MIS, accounting, Web2Print, and machine controls into unified production workflows.

The business model combines software resale (perpetual, subscription, and usage-based credit tiers for pdfToolbox) with professional services spanning audits, requirement specification, implementation, training, and ongoing support. Go-to-market is a hybrid of direct enterprise field sales in Poland and channel partnerships with international technology vendors. Customers are printing houses, packaging manufacturers, and adjacent regulated verticals (pharmaceuticals, cosmetics) in Poland, with occasional cross-border deployments such as a three-site Swiss roll-out for St. Paul Holding. Named enterprise clients include Bluejet, Stec Karton (Stec-Pol), Marion, Pack Druk Poligrafia, Drukarnia Ragus, and Drukarnia AARA. The company cites 100+ completed projects and 900+ workstation installations across 19 years of operation. Proprietary products are limited to Corbit Workflow and the Connect/MES reporting panel; the remainder of the offering is third-party software localized for the Polish market.

Direct peers

• Optimus Group: UK-based developer of Optimus Dash MIS — the core product Print Software resells and implements in Poland. Both serve commercial print shops with estimation, production planning, and shop-floor control software, making Optimus the closest upstream counterpart.
• callas software: Berlin-based publisher of pdfToolbox, the PDF preflight and automation product Print Software resells in Poland. Both target print production workflows with PDF quality control and process automation, making callas a directly comparable vendor in adjacent geographies.
• Ultimate TechnoGraphics: Canadian developer of Impostrip imposition software, integrated with Optimus Dash and resold in Poland by Print Software. Both serve commercial print and packaging production with prepress/imposition automation, addressing the same order-to-production workflow step.
• Aleyant: US-based developer of tFLOW web-to-print workflow and PrintJobManager MIS. Print Software offers tFLOW 9 to Polish printers. Both target print service providers with web-to-print and automated job workflow capabilities, competing for MIS/workflow share.
• Enfocus: Belgian prepress workflow software company (Switch, PitStop) widely deployed in print production. Like Print Software, it enables PDF inspection, prepress automation, and workflow orchestration for commercial printers and packaging converters.
• Volume Software: Polish developer of VoluPack ERP and Reflex BI/CRM for the corrugated board industry — Print Software is its Polish distribution and implementation partner. Both target corrugated converters with ERP, BI, and CRM functionality in the same Polish market.
• Raion Software: Polish MES provider for flexible and solid cardboard packaging manufacturers, integrated with Optimus Dash via Print Software's Connect panel. Both sell MES-adjacent production-monitoring software to Polish packaging converters and serve overlapping customers.

Broad incumbents

• Koenig & Bauer AG (KBA): Global press manufacturer that distributes the Optimus Dash MIS as 'Complete Optimus Dash' across Western Europe, Asia-Pacific, USA, and Canada. Comparable because it sells the same MIS stack Print Software implements, but bundles it with hardware and operates internationally.
• Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG: German press manufacturer with a substantial software portfolio (Prinect MIS/workflow) for commercial printers and packaging converters. Prinect competes head-to-head with Optimus Dash and the Print Software stack for the same enterprise print-shop MIS opportunity.
• EFI (Electronics for Imaging): US-headquartered provider of MIS, ERP, and workflow software (EFI PrintSmith, EFI Pace, Corrugated) for commercial print, packaging, and sign/display. Comparable as a global MIS/workflow incumbent whose product suite overlaps heavily with Optimus Dash + VoluPack ERP.
