All four products are compact in size with high print quality and speed. Worldwide sales will begin from December 2024 onwards.

The Revoria PressTM series was launched in July 2021. The flagship model, the Revoria PressTM PC1120 caters to the high-end professional market, offers a one-pass six colour print engine of up to two specialty toners, print resolution of 2400 dpi, high-speed printing at 120 pages per minute and high image quality printing with Super EA-Eco toner which has one of the smallest toner particle sizes in the industry. With its high image quality, superior productivity, and value-added creation through specialty colour printing, the Revoria PressTM PC1120 is leading the production printing market globally in Europe, the United States, and the Asia-Pacific.

The Revoria PressTM EC2100S and Revoria PressTM EC2100 print at a high speed of 100 pages per minute*2 and are primarily utilised for an extensive range of commercial printing and quick printing. While the Revoria PressTM SC285S and Revoria PressTM SC285 with a printing speed of 85 pages per minute*2 are utilised for quick printing and in-house printing.

The products can handle an expansive range of paper weights from lightweight 52 gsm to heavyweight 400 gsm*3, and paper sizes, from a minimum of 90 x 146 mm up to 330 x 1300 mm*4 without reducing its printing speed. Equipped with a new feature, Smart Monitoring Gate D1*5, it detects colour variation and front-to-back misalignment during printing, enabling automatic correction in real time to maintain high print quality without compromising on productivity. To generate high-quality images and smooth workflows, there will be two choices of Revoria FlowTM and Fiery print servers available. With the newly developed vertical toner development system that can contribute to maintain compact machine size, users can now produce premium quality printed materials, even when working with a wide variety of products, small lots, and short delivery times, such as catalogues, brochures, manuals, and sales promotion materials.

At our stand at drupa, we will be exhibiting the “EC2100S” and “SC285S” printers, which are capable of 5-colour printing. As a special feature, we have incorporated a pink colour that expands the colour gamut and vividly expresses skin tones. You will be able to compare the difference in output between 4-colour printing and this enhanced representation of colours. We will also showcase the “Smart Monitoring Gate D1” providing real-time demonstration of correction processes. We invite you to experience the improved reproductions of image quality, and other finer details of our 4-colour print samples, as well as the expressive capabilities of the 5-colour option.
