Digital Digest: Heidelberg, Fujifilm ‘Fire Up’ Industrial Inkjet Press

Thus, toner-based Linoprint (Ricoh) presses — with an installed base of more that 1,000 machines — are now called Versafire CV and CP models. The narrow web Gallus DCS 340 hybrid flexo/inkjet label press, which also employs Fujifilm Dimatix Samba printheads, has been renamed the Labelfire 340. Likewise, the Jetmaster Dimension — which robotically prints on 3D objects such as household goods, sports gear, toys, lifestyle products and automotive interiors using inkjet — has been expanded to include the Omnifire 250 (4 axis), the more industrial Omnifire 1000 (6 axis; launches end of 2016) and, eventually, the Omnifire XL.
