EFI’s new Super-High-Speed Nozomi Inkjet Printer.
“High-volume sign and graphics businesses can achieve a new, higher level of productivity with the first single-pass inkjet printer from EFI (Electronics For Imaging) dedicated to display graphics,” said the OEM. The new printer is scheduled to be available later this year. The new EFI single-pass for display graphics UV LED inkjet printer, part of EFI’s super-high-speed series of devices, leverages the proven capabilities of the EFI Nozomi C18000 Plus Printer for direct-to-board corrugated packaging production. With this new 63-inch-wide, single-pass solution, users can reach speeds (running through skids of synthetic media and paper-based materials) up to 1,000 sheets or boards per hour. A future upgrade for the printer will also allow for conversion to roll-to-roll production, the company said.
