Canon Production Printers Now Available at Printer Connection

As the Year 2012 comes to an end, we are pleased to have a new product line to announce from our team.  

For high volume printing in mono black or the wonderful world of color, we now provide the CANON PRODUCTION PRINTERS.  

For high volume printing, the color printer is called the Canon imagePRESS Color C7010VP.  

Mono printing is handled by this first pictured machine on the right.  That's the Canon Oce VarioPrint DP family which has three models at top speeds of 135, 120 and 110 PPM pages-per-minute.  This printer is the first offspring from the marriage/ merger/ buyout by Canon of the Oce organization.  The VarioPrint DP benefits from the marking engine technology of an Oce-developed printer and the versatility of Canon paper handling attachments for pre- and post-printing duties.  The DP denotes the unique new OcĂ© DirectPress® Technology, a highly stable technology that prints consistently high-quality images on a wide range of media and produces zero ozone.

For less than "full-on-boogie" non-stop printing, the printers that will fit most of our customers are the top-end of the Canon imageRUNNER ADVANCE 8200 series of printers.  These printers are from a long line of Canon advancements in printing as well as the copy/ scan/ booklet production types of work with which our customers, or at least the IT transaction printing department customers, are not typically concerned.

All of these printing solutions are available with IPDS data stream printing capabilities.

Zebra Xi Printer Compared to Printronix T5000

Check Out a Better Printer of a "Different Stripe".

Top Ten reasons to just buy and use the Zebra Xi printers, and not look at a great alternative:

Zebra Xi
1.  You've got more money than sense.
2.  You really like changing ribbons as often as possible.
3.  The "BANG!" of the printer cover slamming shut serves as an audible alarm to wake up your workers.
4.  Raising the cover to check on ribbon length is like an unveiling.
5.  Cleaning printers and changing bad print heads because of permanently open or broken covers are some of the little joys in life.
6.  All the cool kids have them.
7.  "The software company made me do it, those big bullies."
8.  The striped animal logo is cool.
9.  You do not want any attention lights, for it ruins the ambiance.
10. Reprinting unreadable barcodes gives a sense of worth.

Why not take a look at a comparison of the Zerba Xi Printer to the fabulous Printronix T5000 Thermal Barcode Printer?  There are several great reasons to check out the Thermal T5000 right away:

Ribbon Length
Longer 625m ribbons for less stops than what is required when using a limit of only 450m ribbons

Ribbon Loading
Open cantilevered print head for quicker ribbon loads and less ribbon troubles that "threading" it, and no "collapsing" take-up ribbon spindle as on the Zebra printers

Label Loading
Open cantilevered print head for quicker label loads and less time and troubles than "threading" the labels past the print head in the confined Zebra printer working space

Operator Features
Angled control panel eliminates need to squat, internal aluminum silver gray back panel compared to the black Zebra improves visibility of ribbons and media with cover closed, friction fitted top cover improves safety and longevity, integrated and automated barcode "ODV" scan / eliminate unreadable / reprint

Printer Features
Direct drive versus belt and drive motor system, top indicator light draws attention to ribbon changing needs, 100% complete software compatibility to Zebra Print Language
