EPSON to premier DJet 10000 imposed print system at drupa

EPSON will launch its new DJet 10000 double-sided printing system at drupe, which is organizing from May 31- June 10, 2016. The 44-inch width 10-colour system has been developed by Swiss firm Digital Information and features two EPSON SureColor SC-P10000 printers. The system has been designed for the ultra-fast production of double-sided imposition proofs – in 4-up (B2) and 8-up (B1) formats – and the economical production of short-run items such as display graphics, personalised books, leaflets and brochures.

The DJet 10000 links pairs of EPSON SC-P10000 printers in sequence but offset by 180° so that each prints one side of the uncut roll. Designed with minimum mechanical parts for greatest reliability and ease of operation, the DJet system includes a paper buffer loop between the two printers. Custom-developed control software adds identification and positioning codes to each job. These are read by video cameras and processed by the control software to confirm the alignment for the ‘back’ side of the printed roll.
