Océ Radiant
Fusing

The innovative Océ Radiant Fusing is a
proven technology for the technical document
printing industries. It is designed with the
customer in mind to be more productive
and consume less. With Océ Radiant
Fusing, there’s no waiting for minutes
for the fuser rolls to heat up.

Whilst helping you save money Océ
Radiant Fusing is designed to consume
only when it’s active. The technology is
also environmental friendly and emits
less heat, less ozone and less noise
through its life-cycle.

So you don’t have to deal with the noise
of the fans or warm air around the
printer- and you can enjoy a peaceful
and comfortable office environment.

The Radiant Fusing process starts with
dropping the toner onto the media. The
media then passes through the top of a
metal grid without touching any surface
and the toner is melted down and fused
onto it. This methodology fixes the toner
without contacting the paper directly, and
with minimal disturbance. So you get
spot-on results that are fast, crisp and clear.
