Flora introduces new UV hybrid printer powered by RICOH

With greater production flexibility and versatility for sign and display specialists, Flora has announced the launch of its Flora X20 UV hybrid printer powered by RICOH. The first compact-foot printed hybrid printer co-developed with Flora, following last year’s partnership agreement, is being unveiled by RICOH at FESPA Global Print Expo 2024, RAI Amsterdam. Incorporating RICOH printhead technology, ColorGATE RIP software and ICC profiles, the new Flora X20 UV can run rigid and flexible media up to two metres wide and 5.1cm thick on substrates ranging from PVC banners to vinyl and rigid boards.

According to an official source, the newly launched Flora X20 UV has been developed in response to market demand from sign and display specialists who are increasingly looking for flexible and versatile solutions for indoor and outdoor applications. This RICOH hybrid proposition, with a wealth of RICOH developed features, supports that. The X20 UV is the latest system to join the company’s unique one-stop offering that includes sheet-fed, high speed inkjet, large-format, textile, and software solution. It is designed perfectly for smooth media handling with auto media detection that manages location and thickness.
