Two-Sided Printing

Traditionally, vinyl graphics that are viewable from both sides have been printed on
separate pieces of material and subsequently sewn or stitched together. The obvious
advantage of two-sided printing is the immediate savings resulting from using half the
amount of media. Other advantages include easier finishing, thereby reduced finishing
costs, faster time to market or turnaround time, less weight, more flexibility, and reduced
chance of damage during stitching.
The Print Second Side function enables you to generate extremely accurate two-sided
printing. This can be used for either double-sided banners or for backlit graphics.
The Océ Arizona 600 printer is capable of creating two-sided banner vinyl graphics for
use in many popular applications. Flags, POP banners, trade-show graphics, and two-way
viewable graphics of all kinds can be made easily and accurately using the unique
capabilities of the Océ Arizona 600 printer. This feature requires user input at the control
panel, and direct marking of the media to determine starting points from print to print.
With minimal hardware set-up and a little practice, the two-sided printing feature
provides an effective means to produce two-sided vinyl graphics.

Double Print

The Double Print function of the Arizona 600 is used to generate very high density
images for backlit graphics (constantly on) or other applications where a heavy coverage
of ink is desired. This feature is not recommended than images longer than 6' (2 meters).
Important: Both of these applications will only work effectively in the roll-to-roll
