MELVILLE, N.Y., Aug. 1, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Canon U.S.A., Inc., a leader in digital imaging
solutions, is proud to announce the Océ ProStream Series inkjet
press has received the esteemed 2019 InterTech Technology Award
from the Printing Industries of America. Designed to open up new
business opportunities for commercial printers, the Océ ProStream
is built on innovative technology that takes high-speed inkjet to
the next level of color output quality and media versatility.
"The judges commented on Océ ProStream's ability to print on
commodity coated papers because of an innovative system that
includes a new dryer designed from the ground up," stated
Jim Workman, vice president, Center
for Technology & Research at PIA. "The judges were impressed
with the print quality and the user testimonials. The technology
demonstrates that production inkjet is positioned to replace offset
volume."
The Océ ProStream Series inkjet press delivers outstanding
quality on a broad range of media, particularly in high-growth
segments such as publishing, premium direct mail, graphic arts and
marketing collateral. With a resolution of 1200 dpi at full rated
press speed, this heavy-duty production engine is designed to
improve workflow and efficiency for end users while competing in
the offset market.
"Canon is honored to be recognized by the Printing Industries of
America as a leader in continuous feed inkjet," says Shinichi Yoshida, executive vice president and
general manager, Canon U.S.A.,
Inc. "This award reflects Canon's commitment to offering solutions
built to bring innovative technology to the professional digital
printing market, specifically to commercial print service
providers."
Leveraged with Océ multi-level technology, the award-winning
solution provides sharper details, smoother half tones and
economized ink usage. The Océ-developed set of ColorGrip and
polymer pigment inks creates exciting, vibrant colors built to
leave a lasting impression. Eliminating room for scratches or
changes to gloss levels, an additional key feature includes the Océ
ProStream's sensitive floatation air dryer, which allows paper to
be untouched until printed images are fully robust.
Since 1978, the InterTech Technology Awards reflect truly
innovative technologies that have significant impact on the graphic
communications industry. The Océ ProStream is one of 10
technologies that were deemed by an independent panel of judges as
outstanding solutions that highlight the dynamic nature of the
