FUJIFILM North America Corporation, Graphic Communication Division, announced the launch of four new mid-range production presses in the REVORIA PRESS series. The REVORIA PRESS EC2100S (EC2100S) and REVORIA PRESS SC285S (SC285S) are equipped with a specialty toner station[1] in addition to its four-color toners, enabling five-color printing in one pass. The new REVORIA PRESS EC2100 (EC2100) and REVORIA PRESS SC285 (SC285) are four-color presses. All newly announced products are compact in size with high print quality and speed. Availability is expected in early 2025.
“These new models were first previewed in their development stage at drupa in May 2024, the world's largest printing and media industry trade fair, held in Germany,” said Hidetoshi “Toshi” Kino, general manager, FUJIFILM North America Corporation, Graphic Communication Division. “Since then, they have received high praise and accolades from numerous customers and professionals in the printing industry at worldwide exhibitions.”
The EC2100S and EC2100 presses print at a high speed of 100 pages per minute[2] and are primarily utilized for an extensive range of commercial printing and quick printing applications, while the SC285S and SC285, with printing speeds of 85 pages per minute, are best suited for quick printing and in-house printing environments. All four products achieve a compact footprint through Fujifilm’s newly developed Vertical Toner Development Technology, which transports developer from bottom to top against gravity, significantly reducing the size of each development unit, and in turn enabling five-color printing without increasing the machine size. The new presses are also designed to incorporate technology that enables high image quality printing, a hallmark of the line’s flagship model, the REVORIA PRESS PC1120 (PC1120).
The new presses can handle an expansive range of paper weights from lightweight 35 lbs. to heavyweight 147 lbs.[3], and paper sizes from a minimum of 3.5 x 5.7 in. up to 12.9 x 51 in.[4] without reducing printing speed. Smart Monitoring Gate D1[5] detects color variation and front-to-back misalignment during printing, enabling automatic correction in real time to maintain high print quality without compromising productivity. To generate high-quality images and smooth workflows, there will be two choices of REVORIA FLOW and Fiery print servers available. The EC2100S / EC2100 will be compatible with REVORIA FLOW and Fiery EC21 / EC22 servers. Similarly, the SC285S / SC285 will be compatible with REVORIA FLOW and Fiery SC21 / SC22C servers.
Features specific to REVORIA PRESS EC2100S / SC285S:
- Image data is automatically divided into five colors of CMYK and Pink on the REVORIA FLOW and Fiery print servers.
- A preview function allows designs to be created while checking the expression of specialty colors – saving time and effort for test printing.
- Users can quickly and easily change specialty toner in about 10 minutes[6].
Features specific to all new REVORIA PRESS products (EC2100S / EC2100 / SC285S / SC285):
- Efficient space utilization with a compact LED printhead and high-resolution print at 2400 dpi.
- Increased work productivity through high-speed printing.
- Versatile media handling for a wide range of applications:
- A compact belt roll fuser enables high-quality printing on textured paper.
- Equipped with an Air Suction Feeder5 that ensures reliable feeding of coated paper through the use of vacuum technology. The Static Eliminator D15 removes static electricity from film paper and other static-sensitive printing paper, enabling reduction of adhesion between sheets of paper for work efficiency.
- The machine also supports paper output such as envelopes, water-resistant paper, and cardboard for packaging.
