Japanese digital printing machine manufacturer Riso Kagaku Corporation highlighted its Valezus T2100 cut-sheet inkjet printer at the recently concluded virtual.drupa 2021. Mike Murphy, product and assistant marketing manager at Riso UK, talked about the press during his presentation.
“The Valezus T2100 is the fastest cut-sheet inkjet printer in the world with a printing speed of 320 pages per minute or 19,200 A4 pages per hour. As a result, the press is suitable for a wide range of both short and long-run applications,” Murphy said.
Murphy said that the length of the machine is 4.8 meters, and the installation area required is about 3.6 square meters. In addition, the press has its own dedicated controller, the Alpha Stream. “This is suitable for a wide range of data streams and workflow types,” he added.
Riso’s Valezus T2100 having high-capacity feeder or stacker units
The Valezus T2100 is equipped with two high-capacity feeder/stacker units, each capable of feeding and stacking up to 4,000 sheets (total of 8,000 sheets). The two units can be switched while the printer is active, allowing users to load/unload paper without stopping the job. Also, the stacker unit is equipped with a jogger mechanism and dedicated cart, enabling a smooth transition to post-processing after printing.
The printer can fit in the existing workflow of customers. It supports PDF and Postscript, generally used in an open system environment as well as AFP/IPDS, which is used as an industry standard for mission-critical production print applications.
“The Valezus T2100 has a compact footprint, does not require any special power, and also does not require any special ventilation, making it an extremely easy machine to install in any working environment,” Murphy said.

Riso also talked about its GD and FT series printers. The GD series consists of two variants, ComColor GD 9630, which has 160 pages per minute, and ComColor GD 7330, which has a speed of 130 pages per minute.
