Visitors to EFI\u2019s stand will see some of the companies latest single-pass innovations live, including the breakthrough Packsize EFI X5 Nozomi, the world&#8217;s first full-color, on-demand, right-sized box system that prints, cuts, creases, glues, and erects customized boxes at the rate of up to one box every 6 seconds, and the EFI Nozomi 14000 SD single pass printer for sign and display. The company is also showcasing a vast array of<br>applications produced on the brand-new Nozomi 14000 AQ true water-based, single-pass printer for corrugated packaging and displays and the Nozomi 12000 MP single-pass technology for direct-to-metal package printing, as well as the next generation EFI Reggiani BOLT XS single-pass textile printer.
