A digital plus for versatility and productivity
As printers are seeking innovative ways to meet customer demands for faster job turnaround and the production of personalized or versioned applications, integrating digital printing capabilities into existing analog printing and finishing equipment has become an appealing option. Offering a full portfolio of inkjet imprinting solutions, Kodak makes it easier than ever for print shops to realize this hybrid approach.
Pushing the boundaries of inkjet imprinting
KODAK PROSPER Plus Imprinting Systems combine exceptional productivity with advanced quality capabilities at resolutions up to 600 x 900 dpi. This results in image quality on a wide range of substrates that is difficult to distinguish from traditional offset. With impressive speeds of up to 600 mpm (2,000 fpm), PROSPER Plus Imprinting Systems ensure that the integration of the digital component does not hinder the productivity of analog equipment. The printheads can be smoothly integrated into current equipment using Kodak or third-party solutions.
PROSPER Plus Imprinting Systems are available in different speed and width versions (105 mm and 210 mm) to ensure optimal adaptation for different applications, allowing printers to customize the imprinting solution to fit their specific business needs. The flexible and scalable concept of Kodak's imprinting technology enables printers to begin with monochrome printing and later add spot and process colors as their production needs evolve. Additionally, PROSPER Plus Imprinting Systems also integrate with the KODAK PROSPER Print Bar to implement even wider widths for seamless CMYK printing with precise color-to-color registration.
Inkjet technology, inks and primers together make the difference
PROSPER Imprinting Systems are powered by Kodak’s proprietary Stream Continuous Inkjet Technology, which enables high speed and high output quality thanks to high ink drop velocity and the creation of uniform, perfectly round drops coupled with accurate drop placement.
Employing water-based pigment and dye-based KODAK EKTACOLOR Inks, PROSPER Imprinting Systems are suitable for a wide range of substrates and print applications. Richer colors and longer-lasting images are due to Kodak's patented nanoparticulate milling process, which produces pigments averaging less than 50 nanometers in size. Alongside a range of KODAK OPTIMAX Primers, these inks enhance image quality and ink durability while reducing reliance on costly pre-treated papers. What’s more, Kodak’s inks have an ultra-low level of humectants, resulting in faster drying, even when printing with high ink coverage on difficult substrates.
Embracing high-speed digital imprinting with PROSPER Plus Imprinting Systems is a smart investment for forward-thinking printers looking to expand their business. It enables them to maximize the capabilities of their existing printing and finishing equipment with digital printing and meet growing market and customer demands for quick response, variable output, versioning and customization efficiently and profitably.
