Along with several other new machines, Konica Minolta will be premiering its new bizhub PRO 65hc at PacPrint 2009. The printer, which was launched at drupa last year is a quantum leap in colour production printing, according to the company.
Konica Minolta outlines that the new bizhub features facilitated sRGB colour workflow and uses a new High Chroma toner, which produces a colour gamut extremely close to the sRGB colour space.Meanwhile, the European Digital Press Association (EDP) recently awarded the bizhub printing system as best full colour light production printer.
David Procter, national production printing group manager at Konica Minolta Australia says, “The 2009 EDP award for the bizhub PRO C65hc is something we’re very proud to pass onto our clients and potential customers.”
He continues, “As solely innovative products and features are recognised by the EDP, this award is a confirmation that our efforts to constantly develop new technologies are working at both an industry and client facing level.”
The company adds that its High Chroma toner – the Simitri HD – is produced in a special polymerisation process and makes reproducing colours as they are seen on the monitor easy and straightforward for users.
Also according to Konica Minolta, the bizhub PRO C65hc pairs its colour printing potential with media flexibility and comprehensive inline finishing options. The system processing up to 65 colour A4 impressions a minute easily deals with media of up to 300gsm.
To facilitate selection, the bizhub PRO C65hc comes in different configurations, suited to the most frequent customer finishing requirements. The configuration for direct mailings, marketing collaterals and brochures for instance comes equipped with finishing options such as punching and folding – also for post-inserted material – and stapling.
David Procter continues, “Our bizhub C65hc is suitable for producing material for cross media advertising and variable data printing.”
The company concludes the bizhub PRO C65hc is particularly suitable for producing direct mail items, brochures or POS materials in vivid colours. It comes in different configurations to best meet customers’ requirements of finishing options.
