Arrow Digital adds Canon Colorado 1650 to experience centre
The Canon Colorado, which is positioned as a standout choice for virtually all wide-format printing applications and in its fastest print mode is ideal for applications such as outdoor banners and billboards, is the latest addition to Arrow Digital’s experience centre in Ahmedabad.
Arrow Digital has announced the installation of Canon Colorado 1650 at their experience centre in Ahmedabad.
Sam Patel, MD & CEO, Arrow Digital, says this new expansion enhances the company’s portfolio of Roll to Roll Printers. “The Canon Colorado is an all-rounder impressive performer; the Colorado 1650 is a standout choice for virtually all wide-format printing applications. It proved to be a true workhorse, demonstrating high speeds in all test scenarios and is found to be three times faster than the competitive average across each quality mode tested. In addition to its speed, the printer’s automatic maintenance, user replaceable components and on-the-fly ink replacement features were all recognised as contributing factors for its increased uptime and faster turnarounds,” says the statement from Arrow Digital.
The Canon’s FLXfinish curing technology makes it easy to produce both gloss and matte finishes without the need to change inks or media. The FLXfinish also enhances the printer’s handling of porous materials such as soft signage and uncoated media because its UVgel technology ensures that each ink droplet is immediately fixed on the media, allowing for highly controlled dot gain and more precise image quality.
The Canon Colorado is designed for sign makers, print service providers and in-house printers, which need superior print quality of 1,800 dpi with highly durable, odourless and instantly dry finish on almost any media for unlimited applications. In its fastest print mode, it is ideal for applications such as outdoor banners and billboards. “With the Canon Colorado Series, you can produce designer wallpapers, stunning decals, or luxurious front and backlits that make people stop and take notice while meeting tight deadlines with low cost of ownership. The home décor and other wallpaper markets are growing rapidly and clients. Designers, interior decorators and architects are demanding innovative, green and great looking products and designs. This will bring the experience inhouse for a lot of them with the our wall paper factory synchronized with the inline finisher from Fotoba,” adds the statement.
Sam Patel adds that along with transforming technologies, the demo room has an integrated “Green Theme” promoting environment-friendly products.
