Overview
It’s time for iGen4 Diamond Edition
The Xerox iGen4 Diamond Edition combines all of the capabilities you need to succeed with digital. It is the latest advancement in the iGen family that has revolutionized the industry. But much more important than what iGen has done for the industry is what it can do for your business – and for your time to profit.
Automation from Beginning to End
The iGen4 Diamond Edition is a tightly integrated digital print solution, not merely a press. Automation is everywhere in the iGen4 Diamond Edition solution, radically reducing setup time, improving image quality, reducing labour costs and speeding up turnaround times.
Image Quality That Passes Every Test
Improved image quality and image consistency make the iGen4 Diamond Edition quality predictable – to achieve, to maintain, and to match from shift to shift, even from city to city and press to press. Other advancements, like our Matt Dry Ink, provide a level of quality that makes jobs that used to be exclusively offset within reach.
Unmatched Job Flexibility
Extended media options, inline finishing capabilities and a larger 660 mm sheet size expand the kinds of jobs you can offer to your customers.
It’s Time, Money and Satisfied Customers.
Let’s take a closer look at what the Xerox® iGen4® Diamond Edition automation does for your business. The results can be measured in time – some of our customers have been able to eliminate an entire shift, achieving the same profitability in 16 hours that they used to in 24. They can be measured in money – fewer shifts means lower costs for labour, utilities and a range of other costs of doing business. They can also be measured in satisfied customers.
Automation makes excellent colour predictable.
Some of the questions we hear all the time revolve around image quality. Not only if iGen4 Diamond Edition can achieve the necessary quality to satisfy customers, but how difficult it is to achieve and maintain.
It all starts here.
At the heart of the Xerox iGen4 Diamond Edition is the Colour Maintenance Tool. It’s truly the nerve centre of the press, enhancing the power of your operator to maintain colour stability, accuracy and repeatability. With an Inline Spectrophotometer placed strategically within the paper path, automated processes like colour calibration and destination profiling work seamlessly while streamlining workflow. The tool essentially makes decisions for the operator, reporting if the press is ready for production or automatically performing corrections.
The Auto Density Control System works by detecting and correcting streaks before they occur. You get exceptional quality on every image, every day. It’s automation that boosts your productivity – and improves your bottom line.
Automated Calibration for Consistently Outstanding Colour
The Colour Maintenance Tool automates a critical element of colour management – press calibration. It can be set to run automatically on a schedule, eliminating the problem of busy operators forgetting to calibrate – totally “hands-free.”
Advanced Destination Profiling for Improved Colour Accuracy
Advanced Destination Profiling creates a superior, custom ICC-compliant Destination Profile for colour-critical applications, such as photos and direct mail that require a high degree of colour accuracy and detail as well as a pleasing appearance – all at the touch of a button.
Be Confident About Colour
Xerox Confident Colour is a collection of the finest colour management technologies, designed and refined to deliver more outstanding colour and more saleable output. These built-in technologies are supported by our unique consultation, customisation and business development services so you can be sure you are ready to meet – or exceed – the expectations of your customers. Confident Colour allows you to emulate a range of industry standards such as GRACoL® and Fogra and adhere to Pantone® standards so you can accurately match colours, from job to job, shift to shift, and from press to press.
More Work Right, Right from the Start
With Automated Image-on-Paper technology, manual setups are replaced with a predictable, automated routine – eliminating costly and time-consuming image-fit setups that have always been part of the process of changing paper on every press. Every time you change the paper size, you have always had to adjust image-on-paper registration to fix the potential for skew. That used to take between 30 and 60 minutes. With iGen4 Diamond Edition, the adjustments that used to take an hour now happen automatically – giving you that time back for production and profit. The auto density control’s full-width sensor array adjusts the placement of the image on each sheet as well as the position of the paper within the paper path.
Quality that Leads to Growth
Xerox iGen4 Diamond Edition delivers on the promise of true Graphic Communications quality and performance. Certainly, that is due to the excellence of the technology inside the press. But it is also due to the latest releases of the EFI Fiery and Xerox FreeFlow Print Servers, which continually improve colour rendering and management and image quality with enhancements to the emulation of the GRACoL, Fogra, and RGB colour spaces. Together with other advancements such as our innovative Matt Dry Ink – a new formulation that optimises the uniformity of gloss appearance across highlights, mid-tones and shadows, ideal for any application demanding a pleasing finish – the image quality of iGen4 Diamond Edition means more happy customers and more business growth.
It’s time to do what others can’t.
So where does business growth come from with digital? It certainly comes from automation and doing more in less time – and with less operator intervention. But it also comes from offering more of what your customers are asking for. Xerox iGen4 Diamond Edition actually expands the jobs you can offer your customers through a unique combination of job capabilities you can’t find anywhere else. And if your customers can’t find it elsewhere, all the better.
A larger sheet means bigger opportunities.
If the perception that digital printing offers a restricted range of jobs was ever true, the range has expanded with the iGen4 Diamond Edition 660 mm sheet size.
What does this large sheet size ultimately bring you? The room to grow your business by printing more jobs more economically – unique applications such as 6-panel brochures, gatefold pamphlets and direct mail campaigns that get noticed. More up per hour. Greater efficiency. Fewer sheets. Exclusive capabilities. Our largest sheet means your clients will be able to include more content – on the same sheet.
Make short work of short runs.
The route to digital success is a greater number of jobs of shorter lengths than with offset. Those jobs are out there – literally millions of them.
With iGen4 Diamond Edition, it’s easy to turn those jobs into profit. Speeds of up to 110 A4 pages per minute allow you to produce more work faster. Even better, our 660 mm sheets run at a rated speed of 2,400 4/0 sheets per hour to yield an effective A4 rate of 120 pages per minute.
In conjunction with the processing power of a choice of print servers, a streamlined workflow, great first-print-out colour and the efficiency of a range of inline finishing options, iGen4 Diamond Edition produces more jobs that help you maximise your investment and grow your digital business fast.
Xerox IntegratedPLUS Finishing
Xerox IntegratedPLUS Finishing eliminates the need for highly skilled prepress operators to prepare files according to finisher specifications. It does away with manual programming at the finishing device and reduces the risk of error because the necessary parameters – such as page imposition, page ordering and trimming – are set automatically when a job enters your workflow. It extends the convenience and cost-effectiveness of automatic finishing to multiple printers – including Xerox and non-Xerox printers in the same shop – without the need for multiple, dedicated inline finishing devices. It also maximises productivity by enabling prints to be output to stacker carts at full-rated print speed, while an attached finishing device binds other jobs at its full-rated speed.
