High density rendering (HDR)
A unique, optional print algorithm for enhanced colour quality and density that does not affect print speed. Allows added colour gamut while remaining in four-colour mode.
Double-sided printing
Option that uses individual QR code scanning for image content and position. The three-point pin registration is used for sheeted media. Supports single- and dual-roll double-sided printing on the Production and Super Duty roll-to-roll units.
Clear ink
Optional clear ink can be used to enhance an entire image (full flood) or selected areas (spot) to add extra pop to colours or special effects to graphics. Prints in line with the other colours and provides a hard surface cure with a gloss finish.
Media edge guides
The optional media edge guides (MEG) keep warp-prone media flat. They are easy to access and adjust based on media thickness and width.
