Summary
The Océ Arizona 350 GT printer was a pleasant surprise. This
printer stands out with the new white color ink option as well
as its faster speed. With a maximum 98.4" x 49.2" print size,
this flatbed printer delivers on its promise. Given our test
model's price tag of $156,900, it's not cheap, but as always
Océ delivers value for the money. Considering its price tag and an average
3.25 hours production time per day, you still have a very impressive 1.5-
month payback time. Furthermore the Océ Arizona 350 GT printer has an
optional roll feed capability supporting different type of operations. The Roll
Media Option can be operated in parallel, e.g., while printing on the roll, you
can stage the next sheet-fed print job on the flatbed table, thereby increasing
the efficiency of the production.
The white ink option is one coherent operation with the other colors no matter
if you are using it as under, over, between layers, or spot color printing, which
is also a benefit.
The color matching is excellent, and we were impressed by the combination
of the ONYX ProductionHouse RIP and the print quality of the Océ Arizona
350 GT printer.
We look like to see that the Océ Arizona 350 GT printer gets network and
device management features.
Overall, BERTL highly recommends the Océ Arizona 350 GT as a medium-
production, 98.4" x 49.2" flatbed color printer for mixed use of flexible and
rigid media that can deliver a quick return on investment for any buyer in the
market. BERTL awards the Océ Arizona 350 GT printer four and half stars.
