The bizhub PRESS C8000e – an already successful press gets even stronger
Friday 05. July 2013 - Konica Minolta has effortlessly built upon the success story of the bizhub C8000. The flagship of their digital production systems meets essential commercial printing requirements with perfection. It convinces with a combination of unprecedented speed and incomparable quality. The new edition - called bizhub PRESS C8000e - improves on its innovative predecessor by achieving an even higher performance along with growing ease of use. It's perfect for commercial printers, print-for-pay as well as CRDs who want to grow into digital.
The printing system for professionals is based on the latest version of the Fiery controller from EFI and features latest EFI technology, higher speeds and a higher feature set. With a wide range of different features, such as Windows 7, automated Microsoft software updates, VPD, PDF/VT-1 and 2 support, simplified JDF integration and facilitated job editing, it is a highly convincing device. It even streamlines and simplifies the process of adding new media to the Paper Catalogue, minimises errors and therefore operator intervention. Further enhancements such as “inline job editing” enable key operators to change job options directly from the job list without having to open job properties. This leads to maximum processing power for demanding production printing environments. In combination with productivity enhancements, which were made due to Konica Minolta´s experience regarding stability and reliability of the system, the new bizhub PRESS C8000e is the perfect digital printing system for those who want both speed and high quality.
An increase of the peak volume by 50 per cent (from 500,000 up to 750,000 prints per month) as well as an optimised tray setting during the printing process underscores this efficiency increase. Another advantage of the bizhub PRESS C8000e is its improved media flexibility. Its ability to handle an increased number of media allows more flexibility for the user. Through constant innovation for its entire product range, Konica Minolta aims at catering to the needs of their clients and increasing their satisfaction.
“We are proud that we regularly and swiftly identify the future needs of the market. The launch of the improved bizhub PRESS C8000e shows that we are always listening to our customers in order to fulfil their demands to the utmost degree”, says Karl-Friedrich Edenhuizen, Product Manager Production Printing Group.
