Epson's world premiere: Discproducer™
PP-100
Create data and layouts on a PC, insert CDs or DVDs and off you go. Reliable data burning and realistic photo printing in a single process – fully automatic, just one push of a button: all made possible with the Epson Discproducer™ PP-100. The new CD/DVD production system will be available from February 2008.
The two most significant requirements for professional production are high-reliability and superb print quality. Epson is the world’s exclusive vendor that provides core technologies for high-end industrial robots to 6 colour inkjet printers for professional print quality. Epson Discproducer™ PP-100 merges these two core-competences in one cost-efficient unit.
Low production costs through individual ink cartridges with high capacity
In addition to its sophisticated product design the Epson Discproducer™ can meet high volume demands. Large separate ink cartridges ensure high-quality colour prints of more than 1,000 CDs/DVDs without the need to change the ink. This results in a low cost per print and increases ink efficiency.
Moreover, the PP-100 includes sensors to permanently monitor the ink levels of the six separate ink cartridges. This enables a precise pre-job evaluation of the cartridges’ printing capacity and protects the customer from running the machine without ink, further safeguarding against production wastage and unnecessary costs. Use of the CD and DVD media specified by Epson ensures glossy prints that are instantly smudge and waterproof.
All in one unit – space saving and easy to use
Epson’s Discproducer™ PP-100 makes media production as easy as using an office printer. For convenience Epson’s Discproducer™ is operated exclusively through front feed and can also be mounted within a shelf. With a case width of only 37.7cm it is one of the smallest units in its class. The flat surface allows two units to be stacked on top of each other or using the surface as a storage place. The casing is fully enclosed and does not need to be opened to remove the CDs or DVDs. A robot arm will place the media into a separate output box.
Professional production system for various applications
The Epson Discproducer™ duplicates up to 100 CDs or DVDs in one go and can, depending on the data volume, burn up to 30 and print up to 45 units per hour. The patented AcuGrip™ grip mechanism guarantees easy and smooth handling of the media and CD/DVD drives. It ensures that only one medium is transported and inserted into the drives even if the media adhere.
Whether it’s a professional duplication service or large business, creative agency or other media service provider, government and public sector, clinics and practices: the application software “Total Disc Maker“, developed by Epson, supports all users in all areas with series or individual CD/DVD production. As a globally operating company, Epson also guarantees long-term availability and service for its Discproducer™ PP-100.
“With its Discproducer, Epson has entered the CD / DVD Publishing market and we will also be introducing further products in this range,” explains Leonard Beckmann, BS New Market Development Manager, Epson Europe B.V. “A network-compatible version will be launched during the upcoming year that will underscore our commitment to opening up new market segments.”
