For label printers considering digital productions, there's a new entry level option from Screen Graphic and Precision Solutions Australia.

 

Following the introduction of Screen’s Truepress Jet L350UV inkjet label printing system in October 2013, over sixty presses have been shipped, with demand growing rapidly.

 

Screen is expanding the range to provide a lower-cost solution, making it affordable for printers who want to enter the short-run label market but could not justify the higher investment of the L350UV.

 

The new Truepress Jet L250AQ is an inkjet label printing system that delivers lower initial costs together with extremely high resolution at 1600 x 1600dpi and a compact footprint of W 1,500 x D 917 x H 1,591 mm. It can easily be installed in conjunction with the existing production lines, which makes it ideal for companies wishing to expand their use of digital printing.

 

Ease of operation extends to the intuitive, user-friendly touch panel, web-cleaning and self-predictive cleaning of printhead nozzles. Inks are dye-based and aqueous, so are environmentally friendly. Intuitive software even calculates the cost of each label produced.

 

Screen GP Australia Peter Scott says: “We are very excited about the introduction of this new, affordable but high quality addition to our digital label production line. As with the larger L350UV, we are partnering with Jet Technologies for sales in Australia and also Indonesia. Our demonstration unit is on its way and our service engineers’ technical training is underway. The label samples we have are of outstanding quality on a variety of stocks including metallic.”

 

Screen GP Australia and Jet Technologies will be holding a launch event for the new Truepress Jet L250AQ in the last quarter of 2016.
