T his colour reproduction is unmatched.

The only resource for the highest level in colour reproduction.

Superior high chroma toner also for spot colour reproduction.

Colour gamut with a close match to the sRGB

Konic a Minolta’s unique ne w “Simitri HD toner ” offers a mo re enhanced chro ma.

The colour ga mut is a closer matc h to the s RGB, providing a specialized toner to

support the high chroma printer. This toner can now reproduce vivid colours on

pape r that could not be printed before, even when t he monitor displaye d the colours

accurately. In addition, the po st-print dr ying proce ss is not nec essary b ecause it is a

dry toner. As a result, this contributes to a

faster turnaround time for pr inting.

High chroma printing that can reproduce spot colours with only four default colours

With extremely clear colour quality, the high chroma tone makes it also

possible to re produce those difficult “spot colours” by only using the four

default colours. No special toner or sp ecific expertise is required. Spe cified

colour r eproduction, for packaging, POP, logos, etc., play s a key role to help

you show off your design work abilit y.

Vivid and Natural.

Each holds the power to captivate you right away.

Vivid mode. High chroma that captivates you.

RGB Dat a

Vivid colours in the high chroma gamut, that could not b e reproduc ed using

conventional printing methods,c an now be reproduced utilizing the wide color

range of the four colours offered by the high chroma toner. This colouring not only

wields a tremendous impact, but its c aptivating feature has a powerful ef fec t with

sales promotion tools, such as the highly visible POP.

[Vivid mode for RGB profile]:

Emphasises the vividness by maximizing the strengths of the high chrome toner.

[Vivid mode for CM YK profile]:

Produces sharp hues that have a strong impact even in CM YK ou tput.

Natural mode. Natural finish.

CMYK Data

Maximizes new im age processing technology [S.E.A.D.II] and high precision colour

management to suppor t high qualit y and stability of im age. With CM YK output that

focuses on a natural finish, the high quality that can nearly equal to of fset printing

is now a re ality.

[Natural mode for RGB profile]:

Repro duces a colouring transparency close to the monitor im age.

[Natural mode for CMYK profile]:

True colour reproduc tion is possible like in offs et printing.

Equipped with various functions

to improve printing satisfaction.

With a 70 page per minute rate (Full colour: A4, horizont al), this high speed has an

edge even with printing on demand. High produc tivity and colour reproduction

bring you high-value adde d business.

High speed full colour printing, up to 70 pages per minute

Supports various sizes from 100 × 148 mm up to 33 0 × 487 mm (Ma ximum

print able r ange: 318 × 480 mm) A3 output with f ull crop mark s and double sided

A4 output with crop marks are also pos sible.

Support on all trays for A3 full crop mark output

It is possible to switch between the dot screen and line screen outputs. You can

select the screen that best fits e ach job.

The st andard model is equipped with a mechanic al de-curler that eliminates curls

and waves on the paper af ter printing. As an option, the ICE (Intercooler- Curl

Elimina tor) sy stem is also available which not only reduces curling but st atic

electricity build up as well.

Stable paper handling

High-value added in-line options are availa ble such as side binding /centre

binding units, multi folding units, p erf ect binding units, multi punch units, etc.

Various finishing options

The IDC (Image Density Control) sensors read p atches of CMYK on the intermediate

transfer b elt. D epending on the re sult, maximum densities and half tone densities are

adjusted, and colour consistency is achieved from the first pa ge to the final page.

is possible for t he input dat a colouring. I t manipulates the printer’s colour

reproduction to it s full ex tent. For example, if you sele ct the RGB vivid mode, it

focuses on high chroma, and if you s elect the CMYK natural mode, it switches to a

high quality mode that is in line with offset printing.

The colour management utility offers

a myriad of functions to manipulate the colouring.
