At the pre-drupa conference, Xerox announced that it will launch two new inkjet presses, the Xerox Brenva HD production inkjet press and the Xerox Trivor 2400 inkjet press at drupa 2016. The presses are the first in an innovative new series of inkjet offerings to come from Xerox – Brenva HD to the cut-sheet inkjet market and Trivor 2400 with the Xerox IJ print server powered by Fiery to the continuous feed inkjet market. Each will enable print providers to accelerate growth and drive the production of more high-value applications such as direct mail, transactional, books and catalogs.
“We are focussed on expanding our inkjet portfolio with more choices and greater capabilities for print providers to grow their businesses,” said Robert Stabler, senior vice president and general manager, Global Graphic Communications Business Group, Xerox. “With the addition of Brenva HD and Trivor 2400, we are making inkjet more accessible and affordable to a larger number of print providers.”
Incorporating many of the reliable components of the Xerox iGen series, Brenva HD offers automation and reliability features to maximize press productivity including an in-line spectrophotometer to assist with calibration and profiling; object-oriented color management to distinguish text, graphics and images and optimizes the image quality of each accordingly; and K-only mode so that it can be run as a cost-effective monochrome press. The system uses water-based aqueous pigment inks and a new drying technology. Four variable drop sizes provide flexibility with quality settings and ink consumption. The maximum supported sheet is14.3-inches by 20.5-inches.
The Xerox Brenva HD production inkjet press will be available in Europe in May 2016 and in North America in September 2016. Shipments will begin in June 2016. The list price starts at US$ 649,000. Availability and list price for the Xerox Trivor 2400 inkjet press with the Xerox IJ print server powered by Fiery will be revealed at drupa.
