J Press 720S

The J Press 720S uses FUJIFILM Dimatix’s SAMBA™ single pass piezo drop-on-demand inkjet head technology to achieve an impressive true 1,200dpi x 1,200dpi resolution with four-level grayscale, a specification unobtainable from any other inkjet press. The press' four-level gray scale capability boasts color and quality never previously seen from an inkjet device. An integrated controller incorporates an advanced color management system and color calibration capabilities that maximize color consistency without requiring excessive intervention or expertise from the press operator.

The J Press 720 prints at a speed of 2,700, 29.5”x20.8” sheets per hour, resulting in a product that offers offset quality and robustness plus the versatility to handle short press runs. The J Press 720S prints on coated and uncoated stocks, allowing for printing on standard offset-sized sheets, a key advancement over most inkjet and digital presses, which often require uncoated or pre-treated papers.

The Fujifilm Digital Inkjet J Press 720S has an incorporated infrared drying system, which means printed sheets emerge dry to the touch. The range of finishing options available is also much wider than with digital print technologies. Once imaged, sheets can be treated like an offset sheet, dropping into existing finishing equipment.

Quality is enhanced through Fujifilm’s unique anti-curling and rapid coagulation priming technologies, which deliver vibrant images and prevent paper curl and dot gain. Making use of the company's advanced chemical technology, Fujifilm has developed water-based, eco-friendly inks that enable the J Press to produce bleed free, high quality images. Additionally, there is no toner pile-up, resulting in an offset-like finish and quality. The water-based inks also mean the unit requires less cleaning and produces less waste. Outstanding quality is achieved sheet-after-sheet since the J Press 720S provides sustainable image quality with the use of a CCD sensor, which scans every sheet and makes any necessary alteration in real time.

Developed by Fujifilm, XMF was built from the ground up around JDF and the Adobe PDF Print Engine. Thanks to its use of common JDF and PDF technologies, Fujifilm Workflow XMF can be incorporated into existing workflows, enabling printers to maintain their existing processes.
