TOKYO, January, 17, 2012 -- OKI Data Corporation, an OKI
Group company specializing in the printer business, announces
that OKI Data Americas has partnered with Graphics One, LLC of
Burbank, CA to distribute its new pro920WT
printer in the USA. The pro920WT
- part of the OKI proColor™
Series - is now available for sale throughout North
America.
The launch of the pro920WT
tabloid/A3 digital color printer supplements the already
impressive OKI proColor
Series of printers. What makes the pro920WT
unique is the inclusion of white toner for graphics, signage
and textile transfers. The innovative pro920WT is a
cost-effective alternative to screen printing, and is the
lowest-cost white toner product available in the marketplace
today.
"We are excited about this strategic alliance with
Graphics One. They have a strong reputation within the
industry and were instrumental in helping develop this
product for the textile market," said Rich Egert,
General Manager of the Strategic Technology Provider Business
Group for OKI Data
Americas. "Combining OKI's expertise in
developing innovative, high quality, short-run color printing
solutions with Graphics One's ability to deliver these
products to the textile and specialty graphic markets make
this an ideal partnership."
The pro920WT
is the lowest-cost toner-based white solution product
available to the graphic arts and production market.
Available at a list price of $7,495 (US) and operating at
fast speeds of up to 31 ppm color/36 ppm mono(*1), the pro920WT
employs High Definition (HD) Color printing technology with
up to 600 x 1200dpi resolution to deliver clear, sharp text
and graphics whether on ordinary paper, or on specialty
media.
"The pro920WT
is the optimal solution for those requiring industrial high
speed transfer capabilities in the direct-to-garment and dye
sublimation markets. With lower-cost textile transfer media,
including light and dark substrates, combined with lower
costs per copy, this product is perfect for our distribution
channel," shared Dan Barefoot, President of Graphics
One. "We pride ourselves in providing service, value,
quality and unique products for this market segment. By
supplementing our line of product offerings with the new and
innovative pro920WT
of the OKI proColor
Series, we are continuing that tradition of delivering
solutions to our customers in order to meet their unique and
evolving needs."
The OKI proColor
Series is available exclusively through a select group of
partners serving the graphic arts and production market in
North America. Each product is available with an
industry-leading one-year On Site Warranty.
All OKI products are built on parent company OKI Data
Corporation's history of leadership and innovation in
color printing, such as digital LED technology and Single
Pass Color™. This technology allows OKI Data Americas to
manufacture products that require fewer moving parts for
increased reliability.
