I believe it was the late spring of this year when KIP released their new C700 series color wide format devices. The release was massive with the launch of 12 new color models. The models consisted of five print only color devices, five color MFPs and two color production devices. Indeed it was quite the roll out and I'm still trying to get familiar with each device.
Tonight I'll focus on what I like with the KIP C740 when compared to other wide format devices.
The KIP C740 is a multifunctional device that will print, scan and copy in color.
1) Print Speed- Six "D" size pages per minute in black or 6 "D" size color per minute. Hourly print for color or black at 360 "D" size pages a minute.
LED (Light Emitting Diodes) print technology.
LED printers have several advantages over inkjet printers. They are faster, more energy-efficient, and have a lower cost per page. LED printers also have fewer moving parts, which makes them more durable and less prone to breakdowns
2) Dry Toner- Four color process Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black. What I like best is that our clients can mark up drawings with highlighters and they don't have to worry about smearing the image (the use of highlighters with ink based prints will cause the image to smear).
3) Quality Prints When You Need Them- In some cases our clients don't always need to print drawings or bid sets everyday. LED print engines allow you to get a perfect print even if the device has not been used in days or weeks. COVID 19 taught us a lesson that ink jet devices can't go un-used. When ink jet devices are un-used for periods of time users will experience streaks on the images and users will need to clean and or purge the print heads (terrible waste of ink and money). In many cases we also saw the failure of print heads that resulting in thousands of dollars in repairs.
4) Driverless Printing- Driverless printing is a cool technology that simplifies the printing process for users by allowing any device to print to any printer without requiring special software. This standardization of the printing experience across printers eliminates the need for users to learn how to print to a new printer.
For businesses, driverless printing can help save money on print budgets and significantly improve efficiency for maintaining hardware fleets and software.
5) Operating Cost- Without a doubt the KIP C740 offers the lowest cost for toner (consumable) in the industry for wide format print devices.
We all know how expensive ink is.....whether it's HP, Canon or Epson....
Special thanx to KIP CCtechnology which improves toner yields.
