OKI Data Americas’ introduction of the C941e and C942 digital production printers has been a real game-changer with the devices’ ability to create vibrant, full color output – even on colored and other non-traditional media types and sizes, and at a price point not before seen in this segment of the market. The addition of white and/or clear printing plus expansive media handling capabilities distinguishes these devices from the competition, delivering real value and distinct competitive advantages to those companies who integrate these OKI solutions into their print fleet.
Professional print shops including print for pay retailers and specialty printers, as well as organizations with – or seeking to augment their – in-house production resources, all recognize the worth of the OKI C941e and C942 A3/tabloid devices given their high-quality, short-run, on-demand production capabilities. Producing striking comps, one-offs and reprints at up to 50 ppm[i], these robust devices can apply crisp white text and graphics to colored media, and the C941e has the additional ability to apply clear toner as well, producing dramatic results. Complementary feeders and finishers provide additional value and capabilities including envelope printing solutions offered as part of the devices’ “DP” product configurations, for example.
Whatever the application, these easy to operate devices from the award-winning OKI C900 Series help users expand their printing and presentation capabilities affordably and at an overall low total cost of ownership. With the integration of the optional new EFI® Fiery® C9 server or Harlequin™ raster image processor (RIP), users can enjoy even greater color and job management, further enhancing workflow and productivity.
Lehr & Black of Los Angeles, CA – designers of custom invitations and event décor for more than 25 years, serving high profile and celebrity clients throughout the U.S. – purchased a C942 for use in their business. According to the company’s president, Sol Lehr, “The OKI C942 has been a perfect fit for our business because of its ability to print white and its ability to print on a wide variety of colored media including envelopes, thick card stocks, and pre-die cut sheets.”
“These remarkable printers produce a diverse array of output for a wide range of applications. The C941e and C942 have been well-received by those who understand their value and the distinct advantages they can deliver in a competitive marketplace,” said Dan Murphy, Senior Vice President of Marketing for OKI Data Americas. “With industry-leading pricing for white and clear printing applications, these devices are a tremendous asset for anyone seeking professional quality output within a compact, easy-to-use device.”
The C941e with the Harlequin RIP, and the C942 with the new EFI Fiery C9 server will be demonstrated at the Graphics of the Americas tradeshow and conference in Miami Beach later this month, and are available through the OKI Professional Color Partner program.
