FUJIFILM’S J PRESS 750S ACHIEVES ISO/PAS 15339 SYSTEM CERTIFICATION AND MASTER ELITE STATUS FROM IDEALLIANCE
‘This achievement puts Fujifilm into a category of its own’
Hanover Park, Ill., August 20, 2019 – Idealliance recently announced significant achievements to Fujifilm’s world-leading production inkjet J Press 750S for obtaining the Digital Press Inkjet System Certification and ISO/PAS 15339 System Certification; and raised the bar in earning Master Elite status with the J Press 750S being capable of achieving all seven of the globally recognized ISO/PAS 15339 Reference Print Conditions.
“Fujifilm’s J Press 750S is one of only two presses to ever reach this level of certification achievement; the other is Fujifilm’s J Press 720S,” said Ed Pierce, product marketing manager, FUJIFILM North America Corporation, Graphic Systems Division.
The Idealliance Digital Press Inkjet System Certification verifies a system’s ability to meet or exceed established industry expectations for excellence; evaluating the entire press system, including the digital front end, print engine, and paper for testing and certification in areas of color, print properties, and print production.
The ISO/PAS 15339 System Certification by Idealliance certifies the capabilities of commercial digital press devices to meet the color space requirements specified by the Characterized Reference Print Conditions (CRPCs). ISO/PAS 15339 describes seven CRPCs, all of which have been created using G7® methodology to align the global print and packaging supply chains. G7 aligns Print Anywhere™, with one calibration, one separation, one file, and one aim point as the industry leading set of specifications for achieving near-neutral gray balance across all print technology.
The J Press 750S surpassed both the strict digital print production system requirements as well as the ISO/PAS 15339 colormatic requirements serving as the industry benchmark in quality, reliability, and repeatability across all aspects of digital printing.
“This achievement puts Fujifilm into a category of its own,” says Jordan Gorski, vice president of global certification programs, Idealliance. “The J Press is ideal for print service providers looking to meet the most stringent demands set by print buyers and brands in printing, packaging and graphic communications.”
Ed Pierce added, “This recognition reinforces Fujifilm’s J Press 750S and previous generation J Press 720S truly offer the highest level of quality, breadth of color, versatility and accuracy in the market.”
