New Models for KODAK VERSAMARK V-Series Printing Systems Expand Opportunities for High Volume Monochrome and Color Applications
CHICAGO, Sept. 11-Data centers and commercial printers that produce high volumes of black and white (B&W) documents now can choose from three new cost effective models of KODAK VERSAMARK V-Series Printing Systems. To easily and affordably move from B&W to full color capability, these latest VERSAMARK V-Series Systems come with low risk color options in addition to their monochrome printing capability.
Ideal for customers that produce 2 to 7 million images per month, KODAK VERSAMARK VT3250, VT3350 and VT3400 Printing Systems offer roll fed continuous inkjet (CIJ) printing that can produce 512 to 1026 monochrome images (1-up duplex letter size) per minute, depending on the model. Color capability also varies by model, producing four over one process color images (1-up duplex letter size) at 512 to 1026 images per minute
"By providing the ability to economically move high volume monochrome work from several roll fed laser devices to a single continuous inkjet printing system, these most recent models of the VERSAMARK V-Series Systems break new ground in the black and white market," said Ronen Cohen, Vice President, Inkjet Printing Solutions, Kodak's Graphic Communications Group. "With a minimal investment, the ability to use color with the system allows printers to build their color business with little financial risk"
The new VERSAMARK V-Series Systems are designed to meet the future needs of printers that use digital print to produce monochrome documents. The new models can help those printers reduce their cost of producing B&W documents by consolidating volume to one device and then using the same device to build their color business. The new models are offered with flexible pricing that provides the lowest cost for B&W page, as well as for color pages. The V-Series Systems handle high volume variable data print applications for transactional documents, print on demand, direct mail, books, and newspapers for both B&W and color applications.
"As our customers cross the milestone of printing 90 billion images per year with KODAK Continuous Inkjet Technology in 2007, these new VERSAMARK V-Series Systems reflect our commitment to further expanding the scope of where our solutions add value in the marketplace," said Isidre Rosello, General Manager, Transaction & Industrial Solutions, Vice President, Kodak's Graphic Communications Group, and Vice President, Eastman Kodak Company. "The ability to provide a roll fed system for monochrome printing and lower risk color options expands continuous inkjet printing's potential to deliver exactly the right solutions to our customers."
