How Kyocera is creating new opportunities in graphic arts

Print on offset coated and gloss substrates with Kyocera’s inkjet solution.
graphic arts

Graphic arts printing has traditionally not been possible with inkjet technology, due to the inks not adhering to the offset coated and gloss substrates used. However, that is all changing with the introduction of Kyocera’s commercial print solution, the TASKalfa Pro 55000c. With this latest innovation, Kyocera is creating new opportunities in graphic arts, as the device is capable of producing stunning image quality and crisp lines on offset and gloss paper. With Kyocera proprietary inks and a reliable high-volume printer, graphic arts commercial print companies can now enjoy lower cost, high-quality printing with inkjet.

Kyocera stands out in the commercial printing industry as a committed partner to growing print companies, offering sustainable, affordable, and efficient high-volume print solutions to meet diverse needs.

Graphic arts printing on offset coated paper

The graphic arts industry has historically not been associated with inkjet printing as the coated stocks used do not absorb ink as easily as uncoated stocks. Offset coated and gloss media are used in the production of posters, brochures, books, catalogues, magazines, and higher-end direct mail. Prints that rely on high-quality, vibrant images will tend to use coated substrates for the professional finish.

However, coated and gloss substrates require inks with greater adhesion to produce vibrant results without smudging. Traditionally, offset printers and laser printers have been the preferable options. Another factor is the drying stage, since with offset and gloss paper the ink sits higher on the surface of the media, meaning it is more likely to smudge before drying.

Kyocera has heard these business challenges in the graphic arts world and come up with the perfect solution. The TASKalfa Pro 55000c is designed to produce quality results on offset and coated substrates. High-volume printing on offset coated substrates is made easy with Kyocera proprietary inks and Kyocera’s award-winning inkjet printheads, which employ enhanced drying capabilities to ensure the final outputs are crisp, clean, and bright. 

While Kyocera is relatively new to the commercial printing scene, our legacy in inkjet is undeniable. We have been innovating and producing inkjet printheads for over thirty years, and they can be found in high-volume printers made by many of the biggest manufacturers across the industry. When it comes to inkjet, Kyocera is a supplier that industry experts trust.

Benefits of inkjet commercial printing

With the addition of the TASKalfa Pro 55000c to the European market, graphic arts companies have the exciting opportunity to implement this new solution into their existing print environments. The benefits are significant.

For one thing, inkjet technology is sustainable. Kyocera’s proprietary inks are water-based and do not contain chemicals that are damaging to the environment. Moreover, the TASKalfa Pro 55000c is extremely energy-efficient, so companies can reduce their printing costs and environmental impact. The device is made of few moving parts, which makes it robust and durable. This reduces demand for new plastic parts to be made and maximises uptime. Implementing the Pro leads to fewer technicians on the roads and less technological waste. Moving some high-volume print orders to the TASKalfa Pro 55000c can help graphic arts companies meet their sustainability goals and save money in the process.

Adding a Kyocera inkjet commercial print solution to your print room will also take back time for your Print Room Operators. The TASKalfa Pro 55000c requires less manual operator intervention, as some processes are automated, and uptime is as high as 95%. The Pro enjoys print speeds of 150 pages per minute and is capable of round-the-clock printing for optimal productivity. This is a significant advantage for your operators who can meet deadlines more easily without compromising on output quality.
