Fuji Xerox (Hong Kong) today is proud to launch two new production printer models: Versant 3100i Press and Versant 180i Press in the production color market.
Versant 3100i Press
Versant 180i Press
Enhanced Paper-handling Capabilities Through Air Suction Feeder The newly developed Air Suction Feeder utilizes three types of air to achieve stable paper feeding. First, air is blown inside the tray through the side blower to separate papers. Next, with the suction of the shuttle head, which uses technology that is unique to Fuji Xerox, the paper is secured strongly. Any unnecessary paper is then separated using an air knife to transport the paper sheet by sheet. The Feeder can handle paper of different thicknesses ranging from thin paper at 52 g/m2 to thick paper*1 at 400 g/m2. The new paper tray is also compatible with various paper sizes for printing, from small sized paper to long paper up to 330 x 1200 mm (simplex)*2. Paper which typically cause stress in paper feeding—such as paper containing a concentrated amounts of paper dust, uneven paper, cohesive coated paper and preprint paper for offset printing that uses powder— can now be transported in a stable way. With the new feeder, Versant 3100i Press and Versant 180i Press can handle a wide range of paper including thick and long paper, which enables stable transportation of paper and improve productivity.
Media Expansion for Long Paper Printing
Long paper can now be continuously fed from both the Air Suction Feeder and the conventional manual feed tray. This enables the printer to load 100 sheets of paper*3 at 1200 mm (simplex) and 800 sheets of paper*3 at 864 mm (duplex), delivering high productivity. Printing speed has been improved by approximately 2.5 times*4 for the Versant® 3100i Press, which can now print 23 pages per minute, while the Versant® 180i Press can now print 19 pages per minute at an improved printing speed of 2 times*5 as compared to their earlier models.
Furthermore, printer’s re-adjustment time is greatly reduced to just a few seconds when the printing mode is switched from regular to long paper.
Minimized Operational Load through Proven Capabilities
The Versant 3100i Press can print 100 pages per minute*6 with 2,400 dpi fine resolution. With its Full Width Array function, the image quality correction process before printing is automated for color calibration, and front and back registration adjustment. The Versant 180i Press, which can print 80 pages per minute*7 with 2400 dpi fine resolution, automatically corrects image quality through Fuji Xerox SIQA (Simple Image Quality Adjustment) technology.
‘Thanks to its cutting-edge technology of Air Suction Feeder, Versant 3100i Press and Versant 180i Press are the breakthrough of Fuji Xerox’s Production Press Series to provide enhanced printing quality with greater productivity and reliability. Today’s product launch demonstrates our dedication to the continuous improvement.’ said Alan Chan, Marketing Director of Fuji Xerox (Hong Kong). ‘As the Business Innovation Partner, we strive to provide groundbreaking products to meet the critical requirements of the demanding production print market with the aim to advocate technology popularization.’ (From Left to Right) Mr. Keita Hasegawa, Head of Product Strategy & Management, Mr. Alan Chan, Marketing Director, Mr. Yasuyuki Matsumoto, Managing Director, Mr. Jon Chung, Sales Director and Dr. Michelle Lee, Graphic Communication Services Manager attended the product launch event. With Versant 3100i Press and Versant 180i Press, users can now handle a wider variety of paper for printing with high quality via automated process checks and correction, and boost productivity in the printing business.
