Epson has announced the release of a networked option Discproducer, a compact integrated desktop disc duplication solution designed for businesses and organisations that need to create professional quality customised CDs or DVDs on demand.
The original Discproducer, the PP-100 has been joined by the PP-100N which can be easily integrated into the company network making the production system simple to use. All the data required for the CD or DVD can be compiled on the user's desktop and then transferred to the Discproducer PP-100N at the click of a mouse.
Both models are suitable for design and photo agencies, hospitals, schools, universities, government departments, reprographic houses, duplicator services and any other business with duplicating or archiving needs, the Discproducer can burn and print up to 100 copies of the same disc or unique discs, in a single, fully automated process.
Equipped with Epson's patented AcuGriprobotic technology, Discproducer's robotic arm ensures highly reliable single disc pick up. It also incorporates a built-in, six colour, inkjet printer that delivers high quality print. Using Epson's patented Micro Piezoinkjet technology, the printhead provides precise control of the ink droplets, ensuring labels with sharp text and vibrant graphics.
The high capacity, individual ink cartridges increase ink efficiency and can produce over 1,000 discs without needing to change a cartridge. Each cartridge includes a low-ink sensor and LED indicator to ensure that operators have adequate ink to complete a full run. Combined with Epson recommended Taiyo Yuden Watershield discs, the glossy prints are instantly smudge and water resistant.
