A brand new
high-speed, high-volume, full-color, wide-format printer was introduced by
Roth-Weber (ROWE) at Drupa. Ed Avis of
the IRgA did an article about this new printer.
This printer is a toner-based printer.
Certain to give HP and Memjet wide-format printers additional
competition. Unfortunately for HP,
Memjet, OCE, Xerox, KIP and ROWE, these printers are targeted at two markets, one of which is in decline (A/E/C plans),
the other of which has significant competition (display graphics color). Like to see comparative pricing and costs for
all of these newer wide-format printers.
Press release
ROWE ColorPress Series
High speed, UV resistant, water resistant and indelible – the
reinvention of wide format printing
Niederdreisbach/Düsseldorf 31. Mai 2016 ....
The new ROWE ColorPress, a
family of high speed wide format printers with the latest technologies, is
being presented by ROWE at drupa. The completely new design immediately hits
you in the eye: state-of-the-art, harmonious and extremely high-end, with
illuminated logo displaying the status of the wide format printer in a
completely user-friendly manner. The ColorPress Series has been designed by
ROWE for high volume printing. All printouts are in a brilliant quality and
even when using plain paper 100 percent indelible, UV resistant, as well as
water resistant. Printing costs with the ROWE ColorPress Series are also unbeatably
low. For example, the system doesn’t need special paper for high quality poster
printouts and the print heads don’t need to be replaced. All printouts are
completely dry – ideal for online folding. Many extensions are possible to the
ROWE ColorPress family. As well as several MFP solutions, three newly developed
online folding systems and a stacker, amongst other things, are available.
This large format printer doesn’t only support technically orientated
CAD, GIS, AEC and manufacturing applications for engineers, architects,
construction companies or public institutions, ROWE ColorPress is also ideally
suited to implementation in graphics, reprography service providers, in-house
printing services or for presentations. Customers wanting full color posters
for outside use or POS profit from the printouts being non-fade and water
resistant. Wave formation in large area printouts are a thing of the past
thanks to the latest toner based LED printing technology. Both black and white
and color printouts from the ROWE ColorPress are indelible in accordance with
ISO 12757-2 even when using plain paper. This means the ROWE ColorPress meets
all the requirements of this important standard without any limitations.
Different printing speeds, applicable to each volume – 2, 3, 4 or 6
automatic rolls and single sheet feed
The ColorPress Series has been designed for all print volumes. This is
why ROWE offers several models with different printing speeds. The customer
also selects between 2, 3, 4 or 6 automatic rolls, Rear or Front Delivery Tray.
All printouts are – even when the whole surface is printed – dry and can be
perfectly folded online. Reprography service providers and other users with
large print volumes can in this way optimize their workflow. Additionally, they
can profit from the high operational availability of this new large format
printer as well as from low printing costs. The ROWE ColorPress is operated
with intuitively comprehensible software whose functions can be scaled to meet
the requirements of the user. Thanks to the controller developed by ROWE all
ROWE ColorPress Systems can be linked seamlessly to any hard or software
architecture.
ROWE ColorPress – ideal for online folding
The ColorPress is the first printing system developed for online folding
without compromise and safely:
· Output of complete sets DIN A0 – DIN A4 (ANSI E
– ANSI A) possible. Printing of DIN A4 (ANSI A) formats within a drawing set is
no problem either.
· All printouts – also whole surface printing –
100 percent dry.
· There is no need for special papers for poster
printing followed by online folding. This means a significant reduction in
printing costs.
Everything from
one manufacturer – top reliability
The ROWE ColorPress
can be extended at any time to a multi-functional print, scan and copy solution
with finishing. For this ROWE offers several perfectly matched MFP solutions as
well as the three new online folding systems VarioFold Compact, VarioFold
Complete and VarioFold Premium. The decisive customer advantage: all modules in
the complete solution have already been perfectly matched during their
development by ROWE, including the distinctive state-of-the-art design. Easily
recognizable in all VarioFold folding systems, the distinctive design of the
ColorPress is continued 1:1. As a result of this both systems form a
state-of-the-art, high value unit.
Market leader
for compactness – unrivalled environmental friendliness
The ROWE ColorPress is
the most compact high speed printing system on the market – a decisive
advantage for small spaces. All ColorPress models can be extended to MFP
solutions, also for configuration with 6 rolls. The three newly developed
online folding systems also contribute to this absolute compactness. This
enables wide format solutions, which can be easily integrated into the space
available, providing the user with maximum flexibility.
The new ROWE
ColorPress family doesn’t only exceed the requirements of the Energy Star, but
is manufactured by ROWE in Germany in accordance with the highest environmental
standards. Start of production in 2017.
