The Canon Océ Arizona
The Océ Arizona 1200 series of UV flatbed printers has been launched by Canon for businesses in the sign and display industry, speciality print producers, reprographers and photo labs.
Designed for print service providers (PSPs), the Océ Arizona 1240, 1260 and 1280 provide customers with application versatility and ease-of-use.
PSPs can print directly to a variety of materials with varied shapes such as canvas, wood, ceramics or glass. A stronger vacuum system provides reliable drawdown of even warped, rigid media, whilst the new UV curing system reduces surface heat for printing up to the thinnest, most heat-sensitive media.
The devices use up to six colours and can also be equipped with white and varnish. The optional addition of light cyan and light magenta ink enables superior print quality for photographic and fine art applications. Both printers use the Océ VariaDot imaging technology to produce sharp text and lines, alongside smooth gradients and solid colours.
Pierre-Olivier Esteban, European TDS/DGS marketing director commented, ‘There is an enormous opportunity for mid-volume PSPs to continue growing their business, whether they are focused on graphical communication, packaging, industrial printing or retail. However, in order to remain competitive, they must be primed to deliver a range of high quality products, quickly and cost effectively. The Océ Arizona 1200 series was designed and developed specifically with these requirements in mind. The result is an extremely high quality, robust and reliable machine and a testimony to the innovation and expertise behind Canon’s line of products within this sector. The wide format market is growing and we are committed to helping our customers grow alongside it, every step of the way.’
