MOUNT LAUREL, N.J. (BusinessWire EON) September 18, 2007 --
Oki Data Americas, which markets its products under the OKI®
Printing Solutions brand, today announced the availability of the C8800
Series digital color printers, high performance color printers that
produce a wide range of media up to 11x17 from a compact desktop design.
Priced significantly lower than competitive models1,
the C8800 Series establishes a new benchmark in value for wide-format
color printing.
“The C8800 Series is a pivotal game-changer in
the printing marketplace,” said Mike Garofola,
Senior Marketing Manager, Color Printers and MFPs, Oki Data Americas. “Before
the C8800, the decision for a business owner to invest in a tabloid
color printer required a $3,000-plus investment in a device that needed
its own cubicle. We have eliminated the price and size barriers with the
C8800 Series, giving businesses of all sizes access to powerful
performance and media versatility straight from their desktop.”
With a footprint up to 38% smaller than comparable tabloid printers2,
the C8800 will dramatically reduce the cost, complexity and space
requirements for wide-format printing. The key standard features of the
C8800 Series include:
Size/Value
-
Smallest, most compact footprint of wide-format printers in its class3,
delivering bigger and more powerful printed documents on-demand
from users’ desktops.
-
A groundbreaking price point for wide-format printers with a low
cost-per-page, empowering businesses to enhance their printing
capabilities
Media Flexibility
-
Greater media control and flexibility, including color tabloid (11”
x 17”) and unique banner (11”
x 47.25”) capability, allowing users to
produce a variety of media in house, including marketing collateral
and specialized output such as signage, charts, architectural
renderings or engineering design documents.
Performance
-
Fast print speeds of 26 ppm in color and 32 ppm4
in black-and-white that improve office productivity and optimize
output performance.
-
HD Color technology, combining microfine toner and multilevel LED
heads and 1200 x 600 dpi resolution, ensuring photo-like quality on
everyday office paper, and delivering consistent quality and
reliability in printed documents.
-
Ability to print direct from PDF files, without the need for source
applications, delivering increased office efficiency.
The C8800 Series is now available in North and South America exclusively
through OKI Printing Solutions authorized solution providers. The Series
includes three models configured to deliver different levels of
productivity for businesses: C8800n (network capability standard -
$2,399), C8800dn (duplex5 and network
capabilities standard - $2,689) and the C8800dtn (duplex and network
capabilities and extra paper tray standard - $3,079).
The Series builds on parent company Oki Data Corporation’s
history of leadership and innovation in color printing. It is based on
the 7th generation of printing technologies advanced by Oki Data
Corporation, such as digital LED technology and Single Pass Color™.
This technology allows Oki Data Americas to manufacture products that
require fewer moving parts.
