OKI Printing Solutions sets benchmark for region's A3 colour printer market

The new range of A3 digital LED colour and mono printers bring forward the latest advanced colour technology, providing large workgroups with best in class print quality at a speed that empowers them to bring their printed communications back in-house.

"The new OKI C9000 series are packed with advanced technologies that are designed to deliver high-quality accurate colour without sacrificing print speed. Businesses in this region will no longer have to outsource their colour document requirements, including banners, business cards or company stationery as they will now be able to produce professional printed material in their own offices at a very low total cost of ownership," said John Ross, General Manager, Middle East.

Setting new standards in high speed - at 36 colour and 40 mono A4 pages per minute - high volume, high quality single-pass colour and mono printing, the new C9600 and C9800 printers offer greater reliability, ease-of-use, and the best price performance in their class.

The C9600 comes equipped with OKI Printing Solutions' ProQ2400 Multilevel technology which produces print results that exceed expectations, while Auto Colour Balance ensures that the professional quality of these outputs remain consistent throughout the life of the printer.
The C9000 Series printers also have flexible paper handling making it simple for the user to produce whatever format and paper weight they need. Large oversize A3 colour spreadsheets, 1.2m banners, Gant charts, business cards and stationery can be printed quickly and efficiently in-house, on paper weights up to 268gsm. The optional saddle-stitch Finisher can even fold, hole-punch and staple documents with a professional touch without the need for costly external resources.

For greater versatility, additional trays can be added and the Auto Media Detect feature will automatically select the required media from the correct tray, reducing paper wastage, paper jams and printer downtime.
