Canon's New Colorado 1630 UVgel Roll-To-Roll Printer Ticks All The Boxes
Melville, N.Y. – Building on its portfolio of 64-inch UVgel roll-to-roll printers, Canon Inc., a leader in digital imaging solutions, today announces the launch of the new Colorado 1630.
This industrial-grade printer offers companies active in the large format market access to all of the proven advantages of UVgel technology at a lower investment, to help further expand business opportunities by addressing lower volumes in the market.
Engineered for durability, reliability and stability, the Colorado 1630 base model can be configured according to each user's unique business needs by adding modular options such as FLXfinish, a second media roll, and easy double-sided printing.
The Colorado 1630 Gives All Print Service Providers (PSPs) Access To The Unique Uvgel Technology
Designed for sign makers, PSPs and in-house printers, the Colorado 1630 delivers excellent print quality of 1,800 dpi, as well as highly durable, odorless and instantly dry prints on almost any media, to address virtually unlimited applications.
In its fastest print mode, for applications such as outdoor banners and billboards, the Colorado 1630 can attain a maximum print speed of 1,195 square feet per hour.
Even in high quality mode, the device can deliver a cruising speed of 312 square feet per hour.
The new versatile printer offers the same high productivity features, output quality and media versatility of its faster sibling, the Colorado 1650.
Using Canon's unique UVgel 460 inks that are used with the Colorado 1650, the new 1630 produces razor-sharp prints with a wide color gamut.
Extremely reliable and easy-to-use, this robust workhorse is built for maximum uptime and quick turnarounds.
Operating costs are also minimized thanks to the efficiency of the printer, combined with reduced waste and an approximate 40 percent lower ink consumption compared to other technologies, allowing customers to maximize their bottom line and, in turn, expand their business.
Users can benefit from uninterrupted production with on-the-fly ink replenishment which, combined with unprecedented automation features such as nozzle monitoring, printhead maintenance and media feed winding, allows users to avoid unnecessary downtime.
In addition, Canon's Remote-Control app is now available to monitor all Colorado printers. This application will allow users to check the printer status remotely, helping to support hybrid work environments.
The Remote-Control app also can send alerts to the users' mobile devices with printer status updates, warnings and errors, offering the reassurance that the printer is running smoothly to help meet deadlines.
Colorado users can also benefit from Canon's ProCare after-sales service program, which can offer customers to maximize uptime through access to spare parts, preventive maintenance and remote support for increased productivity and minimal downtime.
The Extended Colorado Family
The introduction of the Colorado 1630 comes as an extension of the existing family of UVgel roll-to-roll printers.
In addition to the 1630, the product portfolio includes the Colorado 1650 for customers with higher volumes and the UVgel Wallpaper Factory, which offers an end-to-end automated high-volume wallpaper production solution.
