SHANGHAI AD & SIGN EXPO, China \u2013 March 9, 2016 \u2013 Electronics For Imaging (Nasdaq:EFII) is showcasing its broad, innovative portfolio responsible for driving its customers\u2019 continued success in China, exhibiting new print technologies at the Shanghai International AD & Sign Expo and at a customer open house to introduce print professionals to the new regional EFI\u2122 Customer Experience Centre.<\/p>\n
EFI\u2019s exhibit at the March 9-12 exhibition is in hall 3, stand A-0275, and includes the first showing in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region of the 3.2-meter EFI VUTEk\u00ae LX3 Pro hybrid roll\/flatbed LED inkjet printer, a device that is a leading production-class LED inkjet graphics printer with fast throughput of up to 3420 square feet per hour. The printer also offers high-resolution greyscale imaging. Plus, the printer\u2019s greener, \u201ccool cure\u201d LED technology significantly reduces energy usage and costs while giving users the ability to print on a wider range of media, including substrates that cannot withstand the heat of other curing or drying methods.<\/p>\n
The newest-version EFI Fiery\u00ae proServer driving the VUTEk printer at the exhibition boosts productivity and quality well beyond a typical printer RIP. This upgraded Fiery digital front end platform gives customers the power to process print files 60% faster than earlier versions of the proServer.<\/p>\n
EFI Reggiani print samples also are on display at the exhibition, highlighting the important new opportunities printing companies can capture using digital textile printing as a cost-effective, eco-friendly alternative to other textile imaging processes. The EFI Reggiani printing display \u2013 which is presented by EFI distribution partner Chemtax Industrial in the north hall, stand NH-0187 \u2013 represents the quality and versatility possible with EFI\u2019s newest fabric soft-signage printers and industrial printers for d\u00e9cor and apparel applications.<\/p>\n
EFI is also showing for the first time in the region the EFI H1625-SD, an entry-level, 1.65-meter UV hybrid production printer that uses award-winning EFI SuperDraw UV ink for near-photographic imaging direct to thermoformable substrates. The printer runs four colors plus white with high-quality greyscale imaging.<\/p>\n
Another new product, the EFI Matan 8QW printer, is being shown in China for the first time. It is an advanced roll-to-roll inkjet product that gives users the ability to create beautiful images for indoor and outdoor applications with patented, seven-color Parallel Drop Size technology and white printing. The 5-meter printer runs at speeds of up to 3800 square feet per hour, offers high-quality imaging at 600 dpi, and features advanced, optional features that increase productivity, minimize waste, reduce labor and provide unrivalled ease of use.<\/p>\n
\u201cEFI customers in China are constantly redefining the ways our inkjet technologies can help develop new services and drive growth for printing companies,\u201d said Stephen Green, EFI\u2019s APAC vice president of sales. \u201cEFI is again demonstrating its strong commitment to this region, with increased technology and infrastructure investments, as well as new product launches. This is a vital market for us, and we are excited about the opportunity to showcase what we have to offer to the region\u2019s growing base of innovative print entrepreneurs.\u201d<\/p>\n
