Japanese print providers now can use a specialized version of
the Heidelberg Digimaster 9110 Network Imaging System that reliably
handles Japanese paper stocks and offers an easy-to-use,
native-language interface.
Available immediately in the Tokyo market, the optimized
Digimaster 9110 system includes a user interface and print drivers
for both Macintosh and Windows operating systems displayed in
Japanese (Kanji, Katakana, Hiragana characters). The Japanese
version also includes an optimized paper path that is designed to
handle the variety of Japanese paper stocks - including recycled
papers - predominantly used by Japan printers.
"This optimized Digimaster system provides a big step in
productivity for our Japanese customers," said Wolfgang
Pfizenmaier, president of Heidelberg's Digital Solution Center.
"Japan as a market understands the benefits of high-volume digital
printing, and Digimaster system users there will be able to provide
those benefits to their customers. In the end, they will see the
same profitability and competitive advantages that Heidelberg
customers in other parts of the world are realizing."
