New for 2006 The Enhanced Chromira
5x 30 Lab |
| Carpinteria, CA, March 7, 2006 - At this year's PMA in Orlando, ZBE Incorporated introduced and demonstrated the Chromira5x 30 Lab - a fully integrated large-format digital RA-4 printer/processor lab system, designed to deliver continuous digital print production and order management for professional photo labs. Its speed, productivity, and flexibility support the needs of today's digital imaging market. And with a printing width of 30", the capacity of producing cut and collated print orders and affordable pricing, the Chromira5x 30 Lab can meet the large and small imager's needs. " The Chromira5x 30 Lab is a high-production, state-of-the-art large-format digital photographic lab system, and it is a member of the award winning Chromira family of digital LED production printers, so at 24" per minute, it provides speed as well as state-of the art quality," says Tim Sexton, Vice President, Marketing. " Our customers have always been small to medium-size imagers, so we really wanted to give them an affordable and versatile production solution that would give them a real competitive advantage and the ability to attract new business with large format prints. From high-volume imaging speed and large print production imaging capabilities, to order sorting and collating, daylight loading and back printing, our Chromira5x 30 Lab does it all," states Zac Bogart, President of ZBE. The Chromira5x 30 Lab is designed to deliver beautiful, high resolution, cut and collated print orders. It's the high production imaging, packaging, and sorting workflow that digital labs really need. Plus, the convenience of daylight loading makes it versatile enough for today's space-conscious digital mini-labs, and its large-format imaging capabilities will keep their customers from going to a competitor for larger prints. Unlike mini-lab systems, the versatile Chromira5x Lab supports media up to 30" (76.2 cm) wide, and generates cut collated and assembled final orders, dramatically reducing labour. Additional Chromira5x 30 Lab benefits and features include: daylight loading and operation, fully integrated printer/processor, high production Chromira5x imaging engine, cut print sizes from 4x5" to 30 inches x16 feet, 300 PPI standard imaging resolution, auto-nesting, auto sorting and collation of nested package orders, back printing of image and order information, distributed front-end network image submission, and exclusive on-the-fly image processing workflow. The Chromira5x 30 Lab system is compatible with all Chromira and ZBE WorkStream software applications. |
