Durst, manufacturer of advanced digital printing and product technologies, has won the European Digital Press Association for its P5 350 printing system. Launched at FESPA on the third day of the event, the Durst P5 350, based on P5 technology platform, triumphed the EDP flatbed/hybrid printer < 250 sqm/h category.

The EDP Technical Committee’s citation said particularly noticeable are the further developments in reel loading and material handling of this production printer that runs at speeds up to 120 sqm/h. It also complimented Durst’s foresight for meeting topical needs in the market and Durst Analytics preemptive diagnostics and advanced software – all demonstrated by Durst Professional Services at FESPA.
The report says, ‘The multi-roll option is using compact and robust design.’ It also explains, ‘The Durst P5 offers patented quick printhead change, fast media reel loading by two positions for single and dual rolls and foldable roll tables. It also offers automatic detection of media wide and thickness, an intelligent multiboard infeed for up to six boards simultaneously.
