EFI™ Pro 30f LED flatbed printer

The EFI™ Pro 30f LED flatbed printer supports media up to 10cm thick and features EFI’s UltraDrop™ Technology with variable greyscale of 7 to 21 picolitre drop sizes. Its large bed size offers a maximum printable area of 3.05 x 2.04m and bleed printing, with print speeds up to 198 square metres per hour at resolutions up to 1200 dots per inch.

EFI reported that American Image, a producer of signs, display graphics, and award products located in New Jersey has acquired a Pro 30f wide-format LED flatbed printer. Prior to acquiring the Pro 30f flatbed, the American Image production printing fleet consisted of 11 wide format printers, including eight small flatbeds. Adding the Pro 30f printer to the mix increased the company’s production capacity by 30%, significantly improving their time to market, which is important in a competitive environment.

‘We worked with our distributor, ITNH, who introduced us to EFI and recommended the EFI Pro 30f as a solution to our needs,’ said John Paragian, Owner and President of American Image. ‘Time to market is an increasingly important factor in customer satisfaction, and turn times continue to shrink. We were looking for a printer that would fit in our space-constrained facility and give us the speed boost we were looking for. The EFI Pro 30f ticked all the boxes. It has allowed us to print items we were not able to print before in terms of size, and it has also allowed us to consolidate our print production, putting multiple jobs on the printer at one time, and adding to our ability to meet tight time-to-market requirements.’

The printer’s LED curing and unique capabilities allow American Image to extend its range of supported substrates and application offerings. For example, EFI’s white ink that comes standard with the EFI Pro 30f flatbed printer gives users the power to print on clear and coloured media, as well as specialty and heavy media like wood, metal or glass, backlit double-sided applications, and spot white to increase image vibrancy.
