Versatility
The ApeosPro for Photo’s exceptional paper-handling capacity means this system can cater to a diverse range of applications.
- Supporting various paper stock to cover the wide range of applications including photo albums, photo prints.
- It supports a wide range of paper sizes, from minimum size of 100.0 mm x 148.0 mm to long paper 330.2 mm x 1300.0 mm.
- By adjusting the force applied to the paper according to the paper thickness, stable paper feed is performed even with cardstock paper, and high registration accuracy is achieved.
- The optimum output conditions for each type of paper, such as transfer conditions, can be registered (maximum: 100) so that high-quality output can be achieved efficiently simply by selecting the paper type.
- Free from volatile solvent for excellent safety and environmental performance.
- By realizing speedy calibration with the scanner built into the printer, it contributes not only to maintaining print quality but also to improving the operating rate of the printer. These functions greatly reduces the load on the photo lab users.
Diverse printing possibilities
Advanced device performance with GP Controller
GP Controller provides even higher image quality and productivity.
- Heavy duty RIP function with high-speed processing for high-quality or variable data print jobs.
- Equipped as a standard with the RIP accelerator board that produces high speed performance beyond the physical specifications of the server.
- Based on 64-bit architecture, achieves high speed processing without image quality degradation.
- By using various types of paper, such as DMs and novelty goods, further expansion of in-house print applications is possible.
Features
Curl Correction
The miniaturized built-in decurler judges and automatically corrects the paper curl caused by the type of paper or the image density of the original one page at a time. High-quality output with stable paper travel and curl suppression is possible → real-time curl correction
