Seattle, WA – Express Imaging Systems,
LLC, a leading developer of digital imaging technologies,
announced today that it will unveil the Europa 10 at photokina
2004. Photofinishing labs can hit peak productivity by running
an output of 10,000 prints per hour on paper sizes ranging
from 3.5” to 8”, and easily upgrade to achieve
20,000 four-inch prints per hour. As of today, this level
of productivity can be obtained for $250,000 USD.
The Europa 10 is the first in a line of new
high speed digital printers to be released by Express Imaging
Systems. Designed for high volume printing in a wholesale
or centralized photo finishing lab environment, the Europa
uses a combination of LED and LCD technology to print high
resolution digital images up to 600dpi onto rolls of silver
halide based photographic printing paper.
“Speed, quality, and scalability are important
to our customers,” said Keith Miller, CEO of Express
Imaging Systems, LLC. “We have a reputation for building
reliable products and offering upgrades that match industry
growth, guaranteeing that our customers get the maximum investment
for their dollar. The quality of the Europa is stunning, and
at these speeds it performs spectacularly.”
The Europa 10 has the lowest cost of ownership
of any digital printer. Features, such as compatibility with
industry standard paper cassettes, a fast and easy color management
system with integrated ICC profile software, and a Windows
XP interface, mean that the Europa integrates easily into
any existing workflow.
The Europa operates using paper and print channels
that enable the user to select multiple combinations of paper
sizes and print formats. Multiple finish and emulsion paper
types are also supported. Breakthrough technology enables
8” x 10” (203mm x 254mm) enlargements, package
prints, or album pages at rates of 10,000 images per hour.
The Europa can communicate via a Photofinishing
Data Format (PfDF) connection to retrieve order and batch
print processing information across networks. By default,
the Europa will be shipped from the factory with general paper
and print channels and will be able to perform rudimentary
order processing without additional setup. Integrate the Europa
with Express Image Manager, a modular workflow software application
also designed by Express Imaging Systems, to build a complete
high speed digital solution.
Express Imaging Systems will shipp production
units Q-4 2004. Please come to Hall 14.1 Booth D 017 to meet
our Engineers, view sample prints, and plan for 2005.
