Application versatility broadened by Ricoh’s new High Caliper Media Customisation enhancement
Digital print production versatility has been enhanced with Ricoh’s new High Caliper Media Customisation service. The latest technology upgrade for the Ricoh Pro C9500 digital colour sheetfed press enables printing on a range of Ricoh approved paper thicknesses of up to 800 microns.
The High Caliper Media Customisation service will enable Print Service Providers (PSPs) to target growth with exciting market opportunites ranging from loyalty and gift cards to thick media brochures, bespoke luxury packaging, compostable food cartons, high impact direct mail inserts, and eyecatching point of purchase applications.
The versatile and responsive production of crisp, vibrant, and sharp print, with inline personalisation and coding capabilities, on heavier substrates, supports the cost effective provision of profitable short runs, customised offers, and localised promotion.
Erwin Busselot, Director Business Innovation & Solutions, Ricoh Graphic Communications, says: “The High Caliper Media Customisation service is the latest enhancement for the Pro C9500, and it demonstrates our continuing commitment to developing the production versatility of our digital systems as part of our Co-innovation strategy. This new enhancement supports a wider range of exciting application possibilities, enabling our clients to grow their businesses. This includes the production of loyalty and gift cards and co-innovative collaborations such as the recently announced partnership with Green Gift Cards. It also presents fresh opportunities in high margin areas such as luxury business cards, swing tags, and gift card packaging.”
Ricoh’s High Caliper Media Customisation service is available now in Europe on new Pro C9500 presses. It is also retrofittable.
