The Xplor View - July 2008 - (Page 8) highlights review At the high end, it was the first public demonstration of the 490/980 Color Continuous-Feed Printing System which was announced in October 2007 and features a print speed of 226 feet/minute (up to 986 ipm in twoup duplex mode). The 490/980 uses LED imaging heads which yield a resolution of 600x600 dpi and employs flash fusing technology. Konica Minolta showed a new monochrome high-speed cut-sheet system targeted at print-ondemand applications. The bizhub PRO 1200, which features a new LED imaging system (Konica Minolta’s previous POD unit, the bizhub PRO 1050 [105 ipm] uses laser technology), prints at speeds of 120 ipm at a resolution of 1200 dpi. According to the company, the new device can handle up to three million impressions per month. In addition, Konica Minolta exhibited the bizhub PRO 2500P (250 ipm and based on the same print engine as the Océ VarioPrint 6250), as well as the new C65 HC (High Chroma) -- an enhanced version of the bizhub PRO 6500 colour device (65 ipm in full colour) that uses new toner and firmware to produce a broader colour gamut. Other announcements and developments Canon demonstrated its new 135 ipm monochrome cut-sheet system unveiled at the AIIM OnDemand Conference in March. Canon also highlighted its hybrid workflow solutions including the integration of Canon ImagePRESS presses with Agfa Apogee and Heidelberg Prinect workflows.
