Optimum Productivity and Versatility
Designed for demanding production environments at commercial printers, in-plants, transaction and direct mail service providers alike, the new imagePRESS series is engineered to run a wide range of media types and weights without sacrificing overall productivity. The series consists of the imagePRESS C10000VP, which features a fast print speed of 100 impressions per minute, and the imagePRESS C8000VP, which features a print speed of 80 impressions per minute, all supporting media weights up to 350 gsm and a monthly duty cycle of up to 1.5 million impressions.
The imagePRESS C10000VP series’ Consistently Vivid (CV) toner feature offers improved transfer efficiency and a lower fixing temperature, delivering vibrant image quality even on textured media. A new air compressor also makes it possible to print onto thin coated media as light as 70gsm.
