The Drystar 4500 offers the following features:
Dry technology for printing diagnostic quality hard copies in full daylight offers
"
important advantages: no chemistry, no wet processing, simple cleaning proce-
dures, no time-consuming adjustments, no darkroom and no chemical disposal
costs. The consumables can be loaded in full daylight.
With its compact design, the Drystar 4500 needs little work space and allows
"
easy customer access. Maintenance and service activities are reduced to the
minimum.
The direct thermal printing system provides grayscale images with laser-like
"
quality: 508 dots per inch resolution, each pixel with a 12 bit contrast resolu-
tion and an optical density up to 3.1 (if an X-Rite 310 densitometer is used).
The built-in image spooling on hard disk assures a high throughput. Printing
"
time is kept to a minimum.
Both 8x10" and 10x12" films can be used "on-line". The upper tray only uses
"
8x10" films, but the setting for the lower input tray can be adjusted for either
8x10" or 10x12" films.
