The Canon imagePRESS V1000 also comes with two controller options: the PRISMAsync Print Server and the imagePRESS Server D3000, providing hands-off automation with ease.
- POD-SURF (Surface Rapid Fusing) integrated with Canon imagePRESS V1000 effectively maintains a consistent print speed of 100 ppm on coated and heavy media types up to 400 gsm, sustaining high efficiency when printing complex and mixed media jobs. The Multi-Drawer Paper Deck also boosts the paper input capabilities to create a wide array of premium applications. For uninterrupted printing, operators can also change toner while keeping the machine running.
- Cooling Unit is an innovative system that cools paper immediately after printing. Minimizing the risk of warping, sticking, or bricking, the new cooling system helps avoid potential waste for the best cost-efficiency. Moreover, the new paper feeding technology also ensures consistent colour distribution even when operators switch between different media types during printing.
