OCÉ ARIZONA 350 GT PRINTER
The 98.4" x 49.2" flatbed printer is faster than its predecessor the Océ Arizona
250 GT printer and offers an additional white ink option. One of the key
benefits of the printer is its use of variable dot droplet size ranging from 6 to
42 picoliters, which produces sharp details, smooth skin tones, solid fills and
offers more economic printing using less ink than comparable competitors'
six-ink color systems.
The Océ Arizona 350 GT printer comes standard with a printer control station
that in turn connects to the printer over a 1 GBit Ethernet link. The ONYX
ProductionHouse RIP is optional. Printing to the Océ Arizona 350 GT is a two-
step procedure. First you submit the print job through the ONYX
ProductionHouse RIP, which RIPs and sends the resulting data to the Océ
Arizona 350 GT Controller for queuing. The print operator can then load the
appropriate rigid media and submit the jobs to the printer.
The Océ Arizona 350 GT printing a BERTL test chart. Notice the vacuum
holes that keep the media in a fixed position throughout the print.
Printing can be initiated through a client computer located on the LAN using
the Windows driver to the ONYX ProductionHouse RIP. We expect that most
professional users will use the ONYX ProductionHouse RIP for its rich
features and control instead of the simplistic Windows print driver.

Even though the flatbed is equipped with
a vacuum system, Océ recommends that
you tape the sides of the media to ensure
that the print heads do not accidentally
damage the media. Even though it
sounds tedious to do this for each print, it
was an easy task, and after a while you
get used to it.
A nice built-in feature is the ability to print
a guide on the flatbed table's aluminum
surface. After printing it out initially, it
makes it easy to position the media
accurately. If the printed media guide
wears down over time, you simply reprint
the guides on the flatbed table.
