DIGITAL COLOR PRESSES -- Digital Devices' Dance Card

Konica Minolta offers its own version of the print engine, the CF5001 digital imaging system. It features additional finishing options for on-demand printing, including bookletmaking and tri-folding for direct mail flyers.

Another company on the list of acquired digital print vendors is Xeikon International, which was taken over by Punch International N.V. The company has since essentially gone through a rebirth, most notably with the introduction of the Xeikon 5000 digital web press that is said to be a new design from the ground up. It prints at speeds up to 130 ppm with a 20˝ maximum media width, and is driven by the new X-800 digital front end.
