“The iJetColor Label Press adds
new capabilities to in-house manufacturing and packaging operations and to
print shops of any size,” commented Tim Murphy, President of Printware. “The
addition of a label press to the iJetColor family of products was based on
customer requests for an easy-to-use system with color matching and variable
data capabilities at a cost that provided significant economic advantages to
bring label packing applications in-house – especially shorter run more complex
color work that is highly profitable”
Memjet technology was designed to
deliver speed by bringing the fastest inkjet technology of its kind to the
market. Using a completely re-envisioned printhead design along with a custom
controller chip and software, each component was engineered to deliver printing
speeds unheard of in the inkjet world.
The iJetColor Label Press is
offered exclusively with a comprehensive package that includes an easy to use
workflow, expert color matching software built in for a wide variety of readily
available inkjet stocks, variable data enabled tools, proven Harlequin RIP
technology, professional installation, 24/7 support and a no-finger pointing
quality guarantee.
“An iJetColor Press system brings
new revenue opportunities to print shops, making it extremely affordable to
produce 4-color label jobs and to also capitalize on new shorter run packaging
opportunities. The iJetColor Press provides low cost, personalized printed
images in print volume as low as one unit,” commented Murphy.
Printware was awarded a “Must See
Em’ Best in Category during PRINT 13 and a “Game Changer” at Graphics of the Americas
