ColorJet showcased its new Neptune wide-format digital printer during Ipex South Asia 2011
Sultan Singh of ColorJet, says: "Low-cost printers start giving problem after one year or so, leaving the printing house with two options – either to invest almost all profit made by low cost printers during its young age on maintenance or forget about recovering the total cost of the printer."
This is where ColorJet Neptune, the Konica Minolta 512-based solvent printers and the other printers in its stable are different claims the company.
Singh added: "Our R&D team, utilising their experience in the field of wide-format printing using DOD inkjet technology have developed ideal printers."
The ColorJet Neptune uses the DOD inkjet technology, which ensures proper ink supply to utilise cost of printhead in terms of life, speed and quality, besides trouble-free operation. The other features of Neptune is the digital PID controls for heaters, which according to ColorJet increases efficiency and reliability. The vacuum bed holds the media while the printhead drives give vibration-free and smooth carriage movement helping in achieving high printing speed with minimum wear and tear, says Singh.
The 3.2-metre wide Neptune prints at 240 sq/ft per hour at 720dpi. ColorJet has an upgraded model, the Terra, which also uses the Konica Minolta printheads and is a 1.8-metre wide CMYKcm printer. It prints at 1,440dpi at 120 sq/ft per hour.
The 3.2-metre wide ColorJet UV is the company’s grand-format UV digital printing machine, which is capable of back-to-back printing and is fitted with four-colour Spectra Polaris head (15pl).
