1-1 Introduction
Machine Features
1
This is a signmaking machine that adds cutting features to a printer capable of high image quality, for a machine that
can accommodate a wide variety of uses, ranging from the creation of stickers and cut-out text and small-lot label
printing to the production of panels, outdoor signs, and more.
This makes possible not only use as either a printer or a cutting machine, but also enables consecutive
printing and cutting. Using the crop-mark feature makes it possible to perform alignment and carry out
cutting when you want to reload printed media that has been detached for lamination or the like.
A built-in print server enables direct connection to a network.
This machine has a built-in media heating system composed of a print heater to improve ink adhe-
sion and speed up drying and a dryer to speed up drying of the media after printing. This enhances
productivity by enabling support for more types of media.
A software raster image processor (RIP) is included as a standard feature. It takes output data such
as a PostScript file received from a program, performs raster image processing on the computer, and
outputs the data to the machine.
Installing a media take-up system (available separately) enables automatic take-up of the media
during printing. This enables unattended operation at night and lengthy printing to be accomplished
efficiently.
