The new Xeikon 4000 system offers higher quality product specifications and allows printing on a wide array of substrates and formats of 50 cm wide. It boasts Xeikon’s unique One-Pass-Duplex technology, which minimizes total run time and produces prints in a single pass. The Xeikon 4000 incorporates the X-800 DFE (Digital Front End) that combines extensive pre-press functionalities including a fast RIP with impressive variable data processing and collation capabilities. In addition, the X-800 serves as an extra quality assurance tool. The Xeikon 4000 uses the unique Xeikon FA (form adapted) toner delivering outstanding print quality.
Siegfried Trinker, chief sales and marketing officer adds, “More and more businesses want to step into digital printing, and they are right. The Xeikon 4000 is targeted exactly at those customers that are looking for a high class easy access opportunity to digital printing. The Xeikon 4000 is a top quality system and it is very affordable.”
