February 17, 2005. Seattle, WA – Express
Imaging Systems is shipping a limited supply of the Europa
10 high speed digital printers in first half 2005 to meet
the growing demand for digital prints in wholesale photofinishing
labs worldwide. Designed for high volume printing, the Europa
10 uses breakthrough technology of LED and LCD components
to achieve crystal-clear print resolution of 450 ppi. Commitments
for first half 2005 delivery will be taken at PMA 2005 and
the production allocation is limited.
The Europa 10 is the most economical digital
high speed printer by a factor of two. If minilabs are currently
used to fulfill digital prints in centralized photofinishing
labs, the Europa 10 can deliver five times the print output
of several minilabs with much lower capital requirements.
The Europa 10 will scale perfectly with your photofinishing
operation as demand for digital prints continues to grow to
over 28% of total prints produced in 2005 (PMA Marketing Research).
The Europa 10 boasts the most profitable operating
RA4 printer in the world. The Europa 10 is compatible with
Agfa and Gretag take-up and supply cassettes, making for easy
integration into existing infrastructures. The environmentally
friendly MEK and solvent-free thermal back-printer will run
for weeks between roll changes without fogging the equipment
or requiring expensive clean-up.
“The Europa 10 is an integral piece of
the fast growing digital printing infrastructure,” stated
Keith Miller, CEO of Express Imaging Systems, LLC. “The
Europa can interface with existing PfDF or BMC systems, or
can stand alone. By investing in R&D, the Europa 10 is
the most environmentally-friendly printer in the world with
the high-speed thermal back-printing system. We built the
machine to upgrade to your growing needs for digital fulfillment,
whether it be greater speed or managing mixed orders up to
8”x10”.”
The Europa 10 is fully compatible with Express
Image Manager complete workflow management software. An experienced
technician works on-site to manage all workflow software integration
projects. Customers can also install i2e intelligent image
enhancement software, capable of processing 5,000 images per
hour per server. Upgrades on the Europa 10 printer of 20,000
images/hour and 8” print size options are also available
in 2005.
