Océ Colorado 1640

Announced at an exclusive event this past spring, the Océ Colorado 1640 is designed to transform 64-inch roll-to-roll sign and display printing with its ability to deliver breakthrough productivity for high-quality indoor and outdoor applications. Users are able to handle peak periods with fully automated media loading of multiple online rolls and confidently print unattended with on-the-fly quality assurance to produce instantly cured prints on a wide variety of applications, including heat sensitive media.
At the heart of the new Océ Colorado 1640 is Canon’s recently announced UVgel technology. This technology combines a radically new UV curable ink from Canon that instantly gels on contact with the media, an advanced “self-aware” piezoelectric printhead technology, an LED-based UV system that cures without adding any damaging heat to the media, and continuous, on-the-fly, printhead nozzle monitoring and performance compensation. These unique technologies come together to create a 64-inch roll-to-roll printer that sets new standards for quality, productivity, automation, application range, and operating costs.
