Leading UK print company expands capabilities and enhances operational efficiency with combined investment in Fujifilm’s Jet Press 750S High Speed Model, Revoria Press PC1120 and Revoria Press E1 Series. Based in Walton-on-Thames, UK, Impress is a family owned business that has grown into an award-winning print business with a reputation for quality and sustainability. Over the course of more than three decades, Impress has delivered marketing materials for a diverse clientele, including both end-users and creative agencies.

After one of the company’s previous digital machines reached end of life, the team at Impress were exploring various options in the market. Michael Kille, Managing Director, Impress Print Services, comments: “The quality produced on our previous digital machine was good, but there were productivity issues. Now, the Fujifilm machines do what we need them to do straight away, with minimal downtime, enhancing our overall business productivity and efficiency. Furthermore, our production capabilities and our value offering have been significantly enhanced through the addition of B2 digital, which complements our litho offering.

“Additionally,” Kille continues. “The special colours on the Revoria PC1120 have really helped us to retain certain types of work that would previously have been B1 litho printed, and we’re delighted with the quality and productivity of the monochrome Revoria E1.”

The new presses have propelled Impress into new markets, such as short-run packaging (through the Jet Press), and enabled it to bring previously outsourced B1 litho work in-house (through the Revoria presses).

Impress is a business that prioritises sustainability; as evidenced through their commitment to recycling materials; their ongoing sustainability programme, and the harnessing of solar power for their own energy needs. When considering the investment, Impress placed huge importance on the overall environmental credentials of the new machines.

Michael comments: “Since installing the Fujifilm machines, we’ve seen a significant reduction in power usage. In particular, with the efficiencies created by the Jet Press 750S, its B2 capability and enhanced productivity, coupled with the lack of breakdowns and smooth workflow, our waste and downtime has reduced and output has significantly increased.”

He concludes: “It’s been a fantastic experience working with Fujifilm through the sales and installation process, and they are always responsive when providing ongoing support. They are truly one of the top suppliers in the industry. Thanks to Fujifilm, we now have the best in inkjet and the best in toner, and a business that runs more productively and effectively than ever before.”

Taro Aoki, Head of Digital Press Solutions, Fujifilm Graphic Communications Europe comments: “Fujifilm is unique in the market in offering the best of both toner and inkjet solutions and it’s always particularly rewarding to partner with businesses who recognise the enormous potential of the combination of these new technologies. But our market-leading technologies are only half of the story. We’re equally proud of the service we provide after installation as we help businesses to develop and grow. This bold investment from Impress is just the beginning, we look forward to working with them in the months and years to come as they grow their offering and their business and bring the benefits of best-in-class-toner and inkjet technology to their own customers.”

Why Revoria Press GC12500?

Larger sheet size with almost 3.5 times the area of most production grade toner presses

Compatible with INGEDE approved Super EA Eco Toner, enabling print to be effectively deinked

Designed to be very easy and familiar to use, requiring low operator skill levels

Unique Design
Paper Supply

Enhancing sustainability

There are many environmental benefits associated with digital print. Make-ready waste between images and jobs is removed, as is the entire plate production process. Fewer press chemicals are required and smaller stock holdings are made possible due to the on-demand nature of digital print.

Key features

The Revoria Press GC12500 is a highly productive press, thanks to a number of unique features. A combination of cutting-edge hardware and software technologies ensure consistent high quality and reliability.

Maximum reliability and productivity

Largest sheet size in its class

The B2 XL sheet size of 750 x 662mm is 25% larger than other leading B2 digital presses. This means it is possible to deliver six A4 pages per sheet, including bleed, trim and production data. There is plenty of room for things like a complete 12 page A4 landscape brochure, 2-up tri-fold brochures or 24 A5 postcards on a single sheet. Step up more cards, labels, tickets, swing tags and packaging pieces.

High press uptime

Fujifilm’s heritage, and over 60 years of experience in toner development, have been brought together in the Revoria Press GC12500. Familiar technologies have been enhanced and performance optimised to deliver reliable, high quality production using the largest sheet size available on a toner press.

Dry toner digital presses also feature higher reliability and press uptime compared to others on the market. This is due to the simpler setup and maintenance routines required to operate the press, and advanced features that maximise uptime.

 

Consistent high quality

In-built advanced technologies deliver reliable high quality, job after job.

Accurate registration

The Registration Control Gate (see right) corrects paper skew and presents a squared-up sheet to the gripper transport system to accurately carry each sheet through the imaging process. After imaging the low stress fusing process ensures dimensional stability of substrates and ensures that even the largest duplex sheets are backed up within a ± 0.5mm tolerance.

Even colour distribution

The uniform distribution of toner across the width of the imaging area is key to maintaining high image quality, especially on the B2 XL size sheet of the Revoria GC12500. New Toner Transfer Optimisation Technology takes advantage of the world’s smallest toner particle sizes contained within Fujifilm’s Super EA eco toner, to create a “magnetic brush”, with greater height and density, to deliver more even colour over larger areas than previously possible on a toner press.

Operation made simple

The Revoria Press GC12500 has been designed to be very easy and familiar to use, making it a powerful option when upgrading from an SRA3 press – with low operator skill levels required.

Easy to use

Anyone familiar with the operation of a smaller toner press will immediately feel at home and ready for production with the Revoria Press GC12500. The general principles of the imaging system remain the same with operators guided through any interventions, calibration or maintenance procedures with simple guides on the control panel and notification lights throughout the machine.

Media management

Managing the paper supply is easy with two drawers that can be freely adjusted to any measure between maximum and minimum sizes. A familiar media library system guides operators through the process of loading and reloading media.

 

Output accessibility

The unique design of the Revoria Press GC12500 delivers output into the large capacity stacker positioned right next to the feed trays. Everything an operator needs – control panel, paper feed, delivery and sample trays – are within arm’s reach for maximum production efficiency.

Smooth running

Dual oversize Super EA Eco toner cartridges mean they can be easily and cleanly loaded while the press is running, optimising uptime.

Redefining flexibility

Take advantage of changing customer demands and new opportunities with the unrivalled flexibility of the Revoria GC12500.

Media flexibility

In addition to the largest sheet size on a B2 sheet-fed press, the Revoria Press GC12500 is also the most capable, feeding and duplexing a range of substrates with the widest spread of weights and thickness in its class:

  • Feed any sheet size between the minimum of
    636 x 469mm to the maximum of 750 x 662mm.
    There are no limits.
  • Go beyond paper and board to print on some PET and other synthetic media without the need for special coatings or pre-treatment.
  • Whether it’s coated or uncoated, simplex or duplex, the printing specifications are the same: from lightweight papers at 64gsm/0.06mm to heavy card or carton stock at 450gsm/0.6mm.

Workflow capability

As you would expect with a modern digital front end, Revoria Flow manages image quality, job queues and colour. In addition, the following features that appear as options in other workflows, are included as standard:

  • Preflight tools
  • Raster image viewer
  • Imposition
  • Smart job scheduling

Diverse application capability

Leaflets, tickets, postcards, mailers, brochures, books, point of sale, packaging – all become more productive and cost effective with the Revoria Press GC12500. A sheet size of 25% greater than other presses can mean up to 50% more items on a sheet.

The Best of Inkjet and Toner

Two digital print technologies. Multiple solutions. One partner.

Read the Article

Reading time: 7 minutes

In the commercial print market today, analogue printing processes, especially lithographic offset, still rule in terms of the volume and value of materials printed. However, that volume and value are falling as demand rises for personalised materials printed on demand and in smaller but more frequent numbers. These demands can only be met by digital print.

Market researcher Smithers tells us that in 2032 digital print will be worth $230.5 billion, accounting for almost a quarter of the global value of all print and printed packaging. This is a little under 3.0 trillion A4 prints, an increase of 68.6% on the 2022 market. [1] And within that figure for digital printing, inkjet accounted for 61.4% of digital print value with 62.4% of volume in 2022. This will increase to 74.1% of value and 77.5% of volume in 2032.[2]

As the commercial print sector continues to digitise, businesses have a choice when it comes to the best digital print technologies to take them forward. For some, the speed and quality of inkjet will be paramount, while for others, the added flexibility of toner and the ability to print special colours and special effects for creative applications will be of greater utility.

For many, a combination of both technologies will be the answer.

Fujifilm is unique in offering best-in-class solutions and decades of experience in the development of both inkjet and toner technologies, so whichever digital path a company takes, Fujifilm has both the product portfolio and the expertise to support.

Furthermore, Fujifilm’s analogue print heritage means that it understands the process and challenges of introducing digital print technologies into a business in a way that digital-only rivals cannot.

When all these factors are considered, there is no better partner in the market to support with digital transformation.

The Fujifilm inkjet story

The story of Fujifilm and inkjet technology is a story in many parts. There are the printheads; the UV and water-based inkjet inks, and the sophisticated integration and optimisation technologies that tie it all together. Fujifilm inkjet technologies power printing solutions like the Jet Press 750S, which has been setting the standard for quality and reliability in digital print production in the commercial sector for a decade, as well as a range of inkjet production solutions for the sign and display and label and packaging sectors.

Printheads

Fujifilm Dimatix is one of the most recognisable and respected brands in inkjet printhead development. The company began in 1984 as Spectra, Inc., a very early pioneer of industrial inkjet printheads. In 2005 it changed its name to Dimatix before being acquired by Fujifilm the following year. Fujifilm itself is renowned for its history of innovation, particularly the way in which it rapidly diversified when the bottom fell out of the photographic film market in the early 2000s. That drive to innovate has continued apace, and the acquisition of Dimatix was part of Fujifilm’s strategy to build arguably the strongest and most diverse inkjet technology platforms in the industry.

Water-based inkjet inks

Fujifilm is one of the few companies in the world with significant R&D and manufacturing capabilities in both water-based and UV inks for the commercial, wide format and packaging sectors.  Fujifilm’s development of water-based inks for commercial applications in particular began in earnest in 2005 with the acquisition of Avecia’s Inkjet Business. A specialist in the development and manufacture of high performance dyes, pigments and colorants, Avecia (now Fujifilm Imaging Colorants) was founded in 1985 with the launch of the first generation of high purity inkjet colorants, and by 1994 it had built the world’s largest digital aqueous ink manufacturing facility in the USA.

With the 2005 Fujifilm acquisition and the massive investment in R&D that followed, more recent developments have produced a raft of new capabilities, including photo-grade dyes for image permanence of 50+ fifty years, proprietary reactive dispersant technologies, and the development of ultra-high performance aqueous inks for Fujifilm’s flagship B2 inkjet press, the Jet Press 750S.

Fujifilm Imaging Colorants, as a result of this consistent and continuous innovation, is a business that has grown to be the world’s largest manufacturer of aqueous inkjet fluids.

The Fujifilm toner story

It may not be widely known to a European audience, but Fujifilm has a long history of introducing innovative toner-based office copiers, monochrome printers and full colour commercial printing systems, alongside significant document and business service solutions. Historically this technology was developed through its Fuji Xerox subsidiary, now called FUJIFILM Business Innovation Corporation.

Although initially a joint venture with Rank Xerox (later Xerox), the business was consolidated to the Fujifilm Group in 2001 when it acquired 75% of the equity, and became a wholly owned Fujifilm subsidiary in 2019 when it acquired the final 25%.

In the last 60 years since, Fujifilm has developed world-leading expertise in toner-based technologies, which now include the high performance EA-Eco toners and fusing systems, the laser imaging and registration systems, the screening and smoothing algorithms, and the finishing and post-processing systems. Many of these technologies are best-in-class, resulting in industry-leading printer performance.

Fujifilm toner technologies

Just as with its inkjet offering, Fujifilm’s ability to bring award-winning toner press solutions to market stems from its fundamental technology expertise, and its ability to bring them together into leading production solutions.

This new range takes full advantage of Fujifilm’s leading heritage in toner-based print production, along with the company’s deep understanding of both offset and digital print, to create production printers that deliver industry-leading performance. They combine high print speeds, superb finishing flexibility, industry-leading colours and enhancements, and of course superb print quality.

The flagship press in the range is the Revoria Press PC1120, which features an advanced print engine and the choice of 10 colours, including gold, silver, white, pink & clear, easily configurable into six before and after CMYK stations. With industry leading print quality, incredible media & finishing versatility, and the largest colour gamut, this award-winning press has made a huge impact in the short time since its phased European launch, giving designers and brands the freedom to create high value print using special colours over short or medium run lengths. With the silver and gold metallics, and the white and special colours and effects available, designers can meet the demands of luxury brands looking for added value print collateral that can be produced economically in very short runs. In addition, Fujifilm-engineered AI image enhancement means that photographs are auto-enhanced at the printing stage, meaning much less time is required to manually re-touch images.

Bringing it all together

In the modern print marketplace, the only real way to stay competitive is by adding value. Whether that is through creative applications, special effects or simply through ultra-high levels of quality. As consumers reach new levels of digital saturation, print offers more targeted, high-value opportunities.

The focus at Fujifilm is to ensure that we are helping our customers right across the industry take full advantage of those opportunities. Every business has a unique set of challenges and each will have different technology and support requirements to meet and overcome those challenges. That’s why we’ve developed our portfolio to span the entire market, from analogue to digital, from toner to inkjet, so we can partner with print businesses at every stage of their digital print journey – from those yet to make their first digital print investment, to businesses that have already phased out analogue altogether.

Key features

Discover more about the advanced technologies and capabilities built into the Revoria Press EC1100.

Highly productive and easy to use

The Revoria Press EC1100 achieves high productivity printing of 100ppm on both coated and uncoated paper up to 300g in weight. Even on heavier weight media between 300g and 400g, a high speed is maintained at 80ppm.

Optional Air Suction Feeder ensures ultra-reliable media handling for all media types

Like an offset feeder, each sheet is picked up and delivered securely by the shuttle head using air suction, improving the paper feeding performance for low quality, textured and coated media.

This system is different to most others on the market, giving ultra-reliable and consistent paper feeding and therefore print performance.

Automation with inline sensor

The Revoria Press EC1100 has an inline sensor which automatically makes adjustments for a number of critical production parameters, including the image-to-media alignment, image transfer, density uniformity and tone reproduction curve.

This saves time, optimises quality and improves the efficiency of production for simple, more reliable operation. This is particularly useful for longer banner paper, which has a tendency to skew or suffer from mis-registration without these automated adjustments.

Optimise print conditions for each paper type with built in media library

Minimise adjustments when setting up print jobs by using pre-registered paper type settings in the media library such as voltage and curl. Alternatively, you can customise the pre-loaded recommended paper list and save up to 1,000 different paper type setting for faster setup.

Auto sheet clearing after paper jam

Significantly reduce the time taken to clear a paper jam with the automated clearing of the remaining paper after a jam. When a paper jam does occur, offset pages are inserted to identify any missing or repeated pages.

Versatile

Handles various media weights from 52g to 400g

Everything from thin folded flyers to thick business cards can be printed. Additionally, not only can it handle heavier weight longer papers (350g up to 660mm, 300g up to 864mm) but the efficient media handling and versatility mean a wide range of customer needs can be met. In addition, high speed envelope printing can be achieved without an additional fuser.

Wide range of paper sizes, along with long banner paper of 1200 mm

The printer supports a wide range of paper sizes, from 148 x 98 mm (smaller than a postcard) up to 1200 x 330mm banner paper. The Multi Sheet Inserter for banner printing can print single-sided long paper from 660 x 330mm up to 1200 x 330mm, depending on the configuration, and duplex long paper up to 864 x330 mm, opening up new application and business opportunities. The Revoria Press EC1100 performs automated alignment adjustments to prevent paper skew or mis-registration which can often occur for longer banner papers to ensure ultra-reliable operation.

 

High quality

10-bit processing and half tone smoothing

10-bit processing results in up to 1024 halftones (instead of 256 with an 8-bit system) meaning extra control and higher quality reproduction can be achieved. In addition, graduation correction is used on images and vector graphics, faithfully reproducing fine tints, gradations of colour and subtle blends between colours. This is especially valuable when printing colour gradients, skin tones and shadows.

2400 dpi resolution and excellent registration

The VCSEL-ROS laser provides 2400 dpi print resolution while the energy-efficient EA-Eco toner* achieves superb results on either coated or uncoated paper to deliver high quality images comparable to offset printing. In addition, the front/back registration of up to 0.5mm (0.8mm from standard trays) ensures high quality duplex printing.

When used in combination with Fujifilm’s Revoria Press PC1120 and Revoria Flow DFE, XMF PressReady, can completely automate the flow of print work from order intake to printed product by preconfiguring and automating the flow of work through the Revoria Flow DFE.

Integration

XMF PressReady can integrate with other systems such as Management Information Systems (MIS) and web to print systems allowing up stream systems to be fully connected to the digital print production flow.

Print management across all vendor presses

XMF PressReady is unique in integrating not only with Revoria digital presses, but any connected digital press using a Fiery DFE. This allows print service providers to manage digital presses from
multiple vendors using one system, giving visibility of the print job status, the print job queue, media information, ink levels and much more.

Able to integrate seamlessly into a range of established workflow environments, XMF PressReady offers multiple workflows that can be configured to make production decisions based on size, quantity, media, and page count. XMF PressReady eliminates the need for manual intervention, saving valuable time and reducing the possibility of operator error.

Emmerson Press, a respected commercial printer based in Kenilworth, UK, has been first before. A Fujifilm plates customer for nearly two decades, in 2016 they became the first printer in the UK to invest in the Jet Press 720S, later upgrading to the Jet Press 750S in 2019. Now, in 2023, they have now become the first UK print business to invest in Fujifilm’s newly launched ApeosPro C810 toner press.

The deal was formally agreed at a Fujifilm event in London’s docklands in May to celebrate the launch of Fujifilm’s toner technologies in the UK.

Jamie Emmerson, Director, Emmerson Press comments: “We had an existing toner machine that had reached end of life and we were looking for a new solution. After looking at the market, the ApeosPro C Toner Press seemed like an ideal choice. We’d been researching it for some time but had to wait patiently until the official UK launch in April to speak to our Fujifilm representative. Following this conversation, we soon signed the deal. Despite it being newly launched in the UK, we did our homework and, being a long-term Fujifilm partner, we were confident that the technology had been tried and tested. Being the first in the UK to invest in Fujifilm technology once again, marks an exciting time for us and we are confident that this investment will give us a competitive edge.”

“We’ll use it to produce a wide range of additional applications – particularly any ultra-short run work that needs to be turned around instantly. And we’ll also use it as an office printer, which further helps with costs and efficiency. The small format size is very useful and overall, the price point, combined with the quality that can be achieved, makes this a truly exceptional machine that is well worth the investment.

“The ApeosPro C Toner Press complements our existing machines well. Fujifilm is a trusted partner, who we enjoy working with – and having multiple solutions from one vendor makes things much simpler to manage, and the support from the Fujifilm team is always second to none.”

Martin Fairweather, National Digital Business Development Manager, Fujifilm UK comments: “We’re delighted to be further expanding our partnership with Emmerson Press. Their trust in us as a long-term partner is demonstrated by them becoming the first in the UK to invest in Fujifilm technology once again. Following the official recent ApeosPro C launch earlier this year, we’re excited to continue to drive this momentum forward and Emmerson Press is the perfect company to gain maximum benefits from this technology.”

The success of the ApeosPro C Toner Press underscores our dedication to meeting the evolving needs of valued customers like Emmerson Press. By addressing the challenges faced by modern businesses, we have positioned ourselves at the forefront of the printing industry, offering a solution that not only elevates the standard of output but also streamlines processes and enhances sustainability.

The world’s first* high resolution LED printhead

  • 2400 x 2400 dpi resolution
  • LED printhead produces a very thin LED beam to write the image
  • The exposure unit does not vibrate because there is no drive mechanism, meaning image reproduction is incredibly stable
  • The LED printhead consumes less energy, resulting in lower power consumption

* Utilising dry-electrophotographic toner, as of March 2021 and according to Fujifilm research.

Suitable for a wide variety of paper sizes and thicknesses

The ApeosPro C Series printers are able to print on a wide range of paper sizes and thicknesses, making them suitable for the production of many different types of print.

    330 x 1300 mm
  • Supports a wide range of thicknesses from 52 gsm lightweight paper to 350 gsm cardstock paper
  • Prints beautifully, even on envelopes and embossed paper with an uneven surface

Advanced security features

Information is an important asset which should be protected at all cost. The ApeosPro C Series printers incorporate a range of security features to safeguard important information.

  • User authentication and permissions
  • Protection against unauthorised access to higher level management functions
  • Protection against software misuse
  • Encryption of documents stored on the printer, and communication data between printer
    and PC

High productivity levels with continuous operation

The ApeosPro C Series printers offer excellent durability and high productivity levels with continuous operation possible.

  • Achieve print speeds as high as 81 x A4 ppm with the C810, 75 ppm with the C750, and
    65 ppm with the C650
  • High capacity paper feeder holds up to 7360 sheets*
  • It is possible to replace toner cartridges and add paper without stopping the print job in progress, therefore maximising printer uptime and productivity
  •  Low wear photoconductor drum with long life reduces the frequency of drum replacements

Stable paper feed, whatever the substrate type

The ApeosPro C Series printers are incredibly versatile, thanks to a number of key features:

  • A built-in sensor detects any misalignment of paper traveling at high speeds andautomatically corrects it
  • By adjusting the force applied to the paper according to the paper thickness, a stable paper feed and high registration accuracy are achieved, even with thicker cardstock
  • A built-in decurler flattens any possible paper curl, which helps guarantee the stable feed of paper. In addition, as an option, the printers can monitor any paper curl that is present, and make adjustments in real time to further minimise any potential paper feed inconsistencies.
  • The optimum output conditions for each paper type, such as the
    transfer conditions, can be registered and stored (maximum: 100)
    so that high quality output can be achieved efficiently simply by selecting the correct paper type.

Case Study: Revoria Press PC1120

Case Study

Floricolor expands business offering and increases revenue with investment in Fujifilm Revoria PC1120

Floricolor

Perafita, Portugal

Revoria Press PC1120

There are many ongoing challenges in the market, but Fujifilm is always a reliable partner that has enabled us to overcome these challenges and help us to grow

Tiago Yu | Floricolor

Highlights

  • Floricolor is one of the leading producers of professional photography albums in the world
  • The company has had a Jet Press 750S since October 2019 – the company’s largest investment
  • Now, Floricolor has invested in the Revoria PC1120, enabling the company to produce wedding invitations
  • Floricolor has been impressed with the special colours, effects, textures, sizes and substrates that the Revoria can print on
  • The designers and photographers have also been impressed with what can be achieved.
  • Revoria investment marks the latest step in a successful long-term partnership

Floricolor celebrated its investment in Fujifilm’s Revoria PC1120 press with an open house event in March 2022. Inviting several Portuguese customers, Floricolor and Fujifilm demonstrated the full potential of the new Revoria press – working in tandem with the Jet Press 750S – with printed samples and live demonstrations.

“The open house presented an initial opportunity for us to showcase what the Revoria can achieve, as well as giving our customers a chance to provide feedback.” explains Tiago Yu, CEO, Floricolor. “They were all very impressed with the results and what can be achieved so we knew exciting times lie ahead.”

“Our main market used to be wedding albums, but in recent years we’ve seen the demand for this service decrease. Demand for wedding invitations, however, is still just as strong, so we saw an opportunity to compensate for this loss in wedding album production by entering the wedding invitation space, something which has only been possible with the investment in the Revoria press. It also enables us to print large wedding album covers that we were previously not able to, helping us to expand our product offering and increase our revenue.”

“With the Revoria PC1120, we have launched a new business venture named Studio 6. Under the Studio 6 brand, we print wedding invitations, thank you cards, business cards and special stationery for our customers. We use the PC1120, in combination with other finishing equipment, to offer our customers a range of unique products, using special colours such as gold and silver varnishes.”

“The designers have been very impressed with the results that can be achieved from the Revoria press, particularly the special colours, textures and different substrates. Typically, it would be difficult to achieve a small run order of special colours, but with the Revoria PC1120, we are now able to do just that. All of our customers have been amazed with the quality and turnaround times.”

In addition to the special colours, the PC1120 enables us to print on substrates of many thicknesses, sizes and types, including plastic – something that we could not achieve with any comparable press on the market. The machine’s media handling is also particularly impressive.

Tiago Yu | Floricolor

“There are many ongoing challenges in the market, but Fujifilm is always a reliable partner that has enabled us to overcome these challenges and help us to grow. We have immense confidence in them to help us deliver print of the highest standard and we are looking forward to continuing to develop this relationship in the future.”
