Both AccurioPress C6100 and AccurioPress C3070/3080 are capable of handling a wide range of media, of varying thickness and length, and deliver unmatched print productivity, versatility, and usability. With the IQ-501 – an intelligent quality optimiser capable of real-time monitoring and adjustment of colour and front-to-back registration – available as an optional feature, the machines minimise manual intervention for high-speed, high accuracy, and high-quality print operations.

The AccurioPress C83hc, is a unique digital printing solution for the photo industry. Using the fourth generation of Konica Minolta’s High Chroma toner, the machine enables printing businesses to customise and complete print jobs in either sRGB or CMYK format through its selectable print mode. This allows for vivid and accurate image replication on paper, with accurate reproduction of skin tones and Pantone colours enabling life-like quality prints on-demand.

Konica Minolta also demonstrated Accurio PRO 1100, a black & white production printer capable of delivering print speeds of up to 100ppm (on A4) and 55ppm (on A3). The machine’s outstanding productivity is complemented by the high print quality enabled by its LED print head, which is capable of producing prints with a resolution of 1,200 X 1,2000 dpi. Armed with an intelligent paper catalogue, mixplex/mixmedia functionality, modular paper feeding, and versatile finishing options, the Accurio PRO 1100 is the ideal entry product to digital black & white printing.

Konica Minolta is also conducting a demonstration of the MGI JETvarnish 3DS with i-FOIL for digital and commercial print and printing businesses looking to scale up their print operations, enhance productivity, and maximise profitability by catering to new-age print jobs.
