Print providers can expand their range of offerings with the ability to produce a wide range of applications, including outdoor point-of-purchase signage, second surface backlit displays, exhibit displays, architectural and directional signage and event signage.
Attendees can also view the award-winning Océ ColorWave® 900 printer at the Canon Solutions America booth. The Océ ColorWave 900 printer closes the gap between digital inkjet and traditional offset technology, offering a digital workflow that can help increase productivity, lower running costs and increase flexibility for variable data and short to medium run-length print jobs. The system incorporates paper handling features from Canon’s high volume large format equipment, resulting in unmatched printing productivity at more than 6,000 square feet per hour at a speed of 12 inches per second. In addition, ONYX® Thrive™ print workflow software can be paired with the printer to meet even the most demanding color requirements
