Océ VarioPrint 6140
Thursday 01. May 2008 - The power inside. Océ introduces new Gemini Technology Instant Duplex printer
Océ announces the immediate availability of a new cutsheet printer based on its unique Gemini Instant Duplex technology. The new Océ VarioPrint 6140 simultaneously prints the front and back of a document at 140 ppm. The Océ VarioPrint 6140 joins three other Océ Gemini systems, the only Instant Duplex printers on the market, which give users the fastest way to duplex. The Océ VarioPrint 6140 is available as of March 2008.
Bringing simultaneous duplex to mid production
“The mid production printing segment is expanding very quickly,” says Jan Henk Bokma, Océ International Product Line Manager for the Océ VarioPrint 6140. “The Océ VarioPrint 6140 is ideal for quick printers, in-house corporate printrooms and small and mid-size commercial printers. It provides speed, reliable inline finishing, and large and flexible paper handling capabilities, all of which are crucial to these environments. This was a perfect opportunity to introduce all the advantages of Océ Gemini Instant Duplex technology to this wider audience.”
The Océ VarioPrint 6140 is intended for environments that print between 300,000 and 1.5 million prints per month.
Accurate and reliable instant duplex printing
The Océ VarioPrint 6140 presses the toner directly onto the paper. This allows the toner to fuse at much lower temperatures than with xerography without waste or dust. This lower-fusing temperature also means media doesnt curl when put through the systems.
In addition to Océ Gemini Instant Duplexing, the Océ VarioPrint 6140 provides:
Perfect registration accuracy when printing books, manuals and other publications
Runability at rated speed, of a variety of media, including coated and heavy stock
Correct printing on pre-printed and pre-punched media
Productive printing on oversized and custom media
An intuitive interface that gives users comprehensive control of the systems
End-to-end modularity
The Océ VarioPrint 6140 is fully modular from submission to delivery. Key components are the Océ Smart Imager Controller, which brings high performance, multi-tasking capabilities, high RIP speed and open architecture to a companys IT infrastructure. Inline finishing options include bookmakers and set finishers. In addition, the systems are fully supported by the Océ PRISMA software suite, designed to promote high workflow efficiency and seamless integration in third-party printing environments.
