Agfa adds upgradable printer to Jeti Tauro range

Agfa has added a new model to its Jeti Tauro large-format inkjet printer family.

The latest member of the Jeti Tauro family is called the Jeti Tauro H3300 LED S (S for ‘standard’). According to Agfa, it is a 'favorably priced' entry model.

This new hybrid six-colour printer, with optional white and primer, enables speeds of 302 m² per hour, which can be upgraded to the even higher speed of the Jeti Tauro H3300. It shares the latter’s short start-up times and quick and easy maintenance, while also featuring the same automation options. That means it will be available in six possible configurations. Four of these are dedicated to board printing, ranging from manual to fully automatic. The 3/4 automated version makes use of an automatic board feeder, which is convenient for shorter runs and a fast, efficient changeover between various media sizes or types. The two remaining configurations focus on roll printing, with a master roll-to-roll and a light roll-to-roll model.

The Jeti Tauro H3300 S LED is powered by Agfa’s Asanti workflow software, which controls and automates the entire printing process from prepress to finishing, while guaranteeing colour consistency and optimizing ink consumption. The smart Asanti Production Dashboard displays ink and media consumption and printing time for each job and printer.

The new Jeti Tauro H3300 S LED is ready for installation as of this moment.

“We are committed to inkjet printing and we aim to support our customers by offering them complete and perfectly matched solutions that make their operations more efficient and productive,” said Reinhilde Alaert, Product Manager Sign & Display.

“The new Jeti Tauro H3300 S LED is built on the same platform as its bigger brother and marks another step in the expansion of our high-end large-format inkjet printer family. It covers a wide range of media sizes and types – for boards and sheets as well as rolls – and supports all print jobs with fitting automation options that ultimately enable operators to tend to multiple jobs and printing engines simultaneously. The printer’s upgradability to the speed of the existing Jeti Tauro H3300 model makes it an ideal starting point for print service providers’ further growth in sign & display printing.”

From October 6 until 8, Agfa is running Studio 5D10, a virtual event consisting of broadcasts focused on its inkjet printing solutions.
