Meet the Xerox® Versant 280
Improve your image
The Versant 280 is a quantum leap forward in bringing quality and versatility to the light production press market. At Advanced UK, we understand the challenges faced by the commercial print / production print market, and we love how the Versant 280 meets those challenges head-on.
Maximum productivity and waste reduction are the keys to profitability, so start by understanding that the Versant 280 ensures toner consistency, coverage, alignment and registration by incorporating SIQA, Simple Image Quality Adjustment to automate the quality output.
Maintaining print quality is part of the press operator’s job, but colour consistency checks slow your true print speed. The Versant 280 solves this by incorporating full-spectrum colour management hardware and software. Central to this is the provision of an inline X-Rite® spectrophotometer. Together with the Colour Profiler Suite and Automated Colour Quality Suite (ACQS), you print operators can focus on delivery and let your new digital press deliver the results without constant interruptions for adjustments.
Dedicated EFI Fiery® Print Servers
You know that getting the very best out of your new digital press demands a matching digital front-end, and the Versant 280 comes with a choice of the Xerox Fiery EX-280 or EX-I 280 print servers.
With the optional Adaptive CMYK+ Kit, the Fiery Driven™ Versant 280 Press can be almost instantly configured to print millions of colours via multiple drop-in/pull-out toner and specialty toner sets, including white, metallics, and Xerox-exclusive fluorescent CYM.
The Xerox EX-i 280 Print Server is perfect for printing large and complex jobs from Microsoft Office, as well as from the Adobe PDF suite where colour accuracy is paramount. While one page is printing, the server is preparing – and storing into memory – the next page. This maintains print throughput.
We recommend EFI Fiery FreeForm Create with the EX-I, ensuring you can personalise existing files without investing in additional VDP software.
The Xerox EX 280 Print Server is the EX-I’s big brother, offering double the job processing performance, thanks to its 10-bit architecture and special processing routines to deliver smooth vector gradients.
EX 280 buyers usually follow our software recommendations and add the Fiery Graphic Arts Package, Premium Edition, to achieve perfect colour reproduction on-the-fly, thus reducing waste and the lost productivity of re-running jobs.
