Dataline demonstrates how AI-driven Print ERP automates the invisible factory at LabelFest 2026

9 November 2026

Amsterdam, 10 November 2026 – A digital label press can produce at impressive speed. But what happens when estimating, order entry, scheduling and finishing struggle to keep up? Together, these behind-the-scenes processes make up the invisible factory, where label and packaging producers still lose too much time and profit margin. On 26 November, Dataline will demonstrate at LabelFest 2026, hosted by Screen Europe in Amsterdam, how Print ERP software and AI can automate these processes and help businesses become more profitable. Visitors who book a no-obligation meeting with Dataline in advance have a chance to win a free admission ticket.

More orders, shorter print runs and an ever-growing number of variants are making the administration behind digital label production increasingly complex. The next big productivity gains will therefore come not just from faster presses, but from a fully connected workflow, from the first customer enquiry through to delivery. It is not about adding more tools, but eliminating manual steps. Is artificial intelligence the answer? Not on its own. The real solution is Print ERP software with integrated AI.

Print ERPai: from automation to intelligent management

With Print ERPai, Dataline shows how artificial intelligence takes process automation a step further. Your Print ERP brings together data from customers, estimates, orders, machines and production. With this information at its fingertips, AI can do more than interpret data and automate tasks. It can also help you make smarter business decisions.

At LabelFest, you can see practical AI applications in action. Estimaite interprets incoming quotation requests by email and turns them into ready-to-use estimates. Maike or Buy helps you decide whether to produce jobs in-house or outsource them, with profitability driving every decision. Einstain lets you interact directly with your Print ERP through AI, giving you instant access to business-critical information and quick answers to your questions.

As Dirk Deroo, CEO of Dataline, puts it: “The label and packaging businesses of tomorrow will run on more than machines. They will run on intelligence. And that intelligence starts with Print ERPai.”


Specialised Print ERP solutions for labels and packaging

The right approach to automation depends on your production environment. At LabelFest, Dataline will showcase three specialised Print ERP solutions designed for the label industry.

VG Seven connects online label sales with dynamic estimating, order processing and production. DigiFlex is purpose-built for narrow-web production, combining MIS with BI/MES for production planning and real-time visibility of the shop floor. MultiPress 7.0 Cosmic automates complex workflows for businesses using multiple printing technologies, with AI functionality built directly into the Print ERP environment.

Dataline software also features a certified integration with Screen label presses, allowing job data and print-ready files to flow directly from your Print ERP into production. For label producers already using Screen presses, further workflow automation offers valuable opportunities to improve efficiency and profitability.
