The OKI ES9541 is the first digital printer in the industry to offer the option of printing with a fifth colour. The printer is now available from distributor Drive Control Corporation (DCC).

It offers lower total cost of ownership (TCO) with outstanding print quality, super-fast print speeds and support for a wide variety of media and paper sizes, as well as the unique ability to print a fifth colour. This enables organisations to bring a variety of graphic art printing needs in-house for cost-effective convenience and professional quality prints every time.

“This innovative printer enables on-demand printing with the full range of process colours as well as a spot colour of either white or clear. It also supports paper stock up to 360gsm and a variety of media including gloss paper, film, transfer paper, waterproof paper, and can handle paper widths from A6 to SRA3 with lengths of up to 1,3m.

“This versatility enables organisations to print stationery, invitations, brochures, packaging prototypes, Point-Of-Sale (POS) material, window graphics, labels, clothing transfers and more – the possibilities are endless,” says Heinrich Pretorius, OKI product specialist at DCC.

The ES9541 is the first printer of its kind to offer CMYK+1, and is compatible with Fiery XF Version 5 – a colour management workflow solution for proofing and production, which enables advanced colour management for optimised colour depth and print quality. This ensures stunning vibrancy of colour on any colour media, including dark and transparent, and brings designs to life with the ability to deliver a cost-effective spot gloss process.

Sharp and vibrant High Definition (HD) prints are delivered using a combination of digital LED and Multi-Level ProQ technology with superb resolution of 1 200 x 1 200dpi. A combination of highly competitive capital cost and ultra-high capacity toner cartridges ensure reduced TCO and excellent value for money.

With time to print of less than eight seconds, A3 print speeds of 28 pages per minute (ppm) in colour and mono, and lightning print speeds of up to 50ppm in A4, the ES9541 offers the highest printing speeds in its class. A 1.2GHz processor and 2Gb RAM ensure rapid throughput. The printer comes standard with a 530-sheet tray and a robust 300-sheet multi-purpose tray for added flexibility.

“Thanks to the OKI ES9541 there is no need to outsource a variety of different print jobs, as the printer is robust enough to handle low-end production runs as well as any number of graphic arts jobs. If high quality and versatility are what you need, this is the printer for your business,” Pretorius concludes.
