The D1005 HR - A New High Resolution Dry Duplex Minilab from Noritsu

27/09/10

New D1005 HR Supports Retailer Revenue Growth with Innovative Engineering and Efficiently Delivers the Widest Range of Print Sizes and Value-Added Services.

Noritsu, the number one supplier of minilabs in the world, is pleased to announce the D1005 HR, an innovative duplex minilab that has all the great features of the popular D1005, plus a new maximum resolution of 1440 dpi.





The D1005 HR is a high-efficiency, small footprint duplex dry minilab engineered to meet the changing photo imaging needs of today’s social expression age. It is a high-performance on-site solution that combines multiple innovations with Noritsu's legendary manufacturing and service capabilities to provide retailers with the flexibility to produce an unprecedented range of services and photo products in sizes up to 12-by-36 inches.

Noritsu understands the importance of focusing innovation on immediate customer’s needs. With the D1005 HR we’ve combined the best of our proven technology with game-changing innovation in a power-packed one square meter of space, letting retailers do more with less. The D1005 HR combines high-quality printing efficiency with consumer-product driven flexibility all supported by the largest minilab service organization in the world, giving retailers peace of mind and increased opportunities for growth.

Magnificent Quality
The Noritsu D1005 HR makes sharp, vibrant prints with unequalled color accuracy. The system produces durable, archival prints with the innovative Noritsu four color dye ink system that uses six gradations per dot and a specially formulated, fade-resistant ink designed to withstand ozone and light. AccuSmart image processing technology, only available from Noritsu, provides powerful image optimization and correction functions that work automatically to produce high quality results.

1440 dpi
And this market leading quality just got better, thanks to the enhanced maximum resolution of the D1005 HR. This model’s amazing 1440 dpi improves the print quality, especially in terms of graininess and gradation. D1005 HR 1440 dpi prints have outstanding contrast, chroma and depth.

The ability to configure the D1005 HR to meet your particular needs is another big plus. Using the print channels on the EZ Controller, you can assign the 720 dpi resolution for certain applications and the 1440 dpi resolution for others. This enables you to switch between the two resolutions giving priority to capacity in certain situations and giving the utmost priority to quality in others.

Innovative Features
Innovative roll and variable paper advance technology provide unlimited printing options to meet current and future consumer needs. The D1005 HR supports both roll paper and sheet paper, and has the ability to produce both single-sided and double-sided prints, opening the door for production of everything from standard prints to greeting cards, posters and photo books. Dual, two-lane magazines enable flexible paper configuration with a new maximum paper width of 12 inches and the ability to load up to four paper rolls. The system supports automatic order sorting and is the first dry minilab to use LED lights on the 12-order print sorter to signify interrupted orders.

Operational Simplicity and Efficiency for a Wide Range of Environments
With greater ease of operation and flexibility, the D1005 HR reduces setup and training time while maintaining efficient workflow at the retail store. Additionally, the open system used by Noritsu allows retailers to take advantage of existing on-site equipment and networks. The system is simple to use and efficient for a wide range of retail environments with eco-friendly operation, four ink color system and 4-by-6 inch print capacity of 950 prints per hour and up to 3,800 prints without changing paper.

The D1005 HR allows retailers to deliver amazing quality, reduce cost and increase the number of consumer products provided in less space than any other dry duplex minilab in the market. With the introduction of the D1005 HR, Noritsu continues its legacy of providing retailers with innovative products, efficiency-enhancing reliability and customer support that has made Noritsu a legend in the industry.
