The AccurioPress C14000 prints at 140 pages per minute (ppm) in A4 and is 40% faster than any other toner-based device from Konica Minolta. A second model in the series, the AccurioPress C12000, provides the same print quality and a similarly fast speed of 120 ppm.\nThe launch demonstrates Konica Minolta\u2019s mission to support the transformation of its clients\u2019 companies by sector and industry, predicting potential challenges and creating solutions together. The presses will help customers that want to expand and streamline their businesses through advanced automation, fewer human touchpoints and higher productivity with tangible effects leading to increased, high-quality output with less waste.
\nThis new flagship cut-sheet product will maximize customer value based on opportunities for business expansion, accelerated operational efficiency and improved total cost of ownership (TCO) with faster investment return.
\nUntil now, Konica Minolta has not produced a toner-based high production print (HPP) product. Since 2015, its AccurioJet KM-1 inkjet press has been its flagship production model with a speed of 3,000 sheets per hour, designed more for high-quality applications, similar to offset printing. The AccurioPress C6100s series for mid production print (MPP), on the other hand, are designed to support a highly responsive print room environment. The AccurioPress C14000 covers the gap between these two products in the HPP segment, offering a higher print volume and longer duty cycle to reach new commercial print customers within the HPP segment requiring high productivity, efficiency of operations and quality for direct mail, brochures and catalogues.

\u201cThis is an extremely important global initiative for Konica Minolta, especially significant because we are not currently known for toner-based high-production print equipment, said Olaf Lorenz, General Manager DX Branding Division bei Konica Minolta, Inc. \u201cWe are entering the HPP segment with a really high-quality press. The similarities in quality between traditional offset and what we can do with toner is astonishing, and we have worked very hard to get here.\u201d\nKoji Sugie, Executive Officer\/Konica Minolta Inc., Division President of Professional Print Business, said: \u201cBy increasing the efficiency of customer workflow from beginning to end, we aim to achieve the number one position in the high-production print market.\u201d
\nKonica Minolta\u2019s IQ-501 Intelligent Quality Care enhanced auto inspection options offer expanded inspection performance, verifying print quality and now detecting streaks and spots as well as blemishes. The high-quality prints mean maximum stability even during long run jobs, while better registration and quality increases total print volume. The new presses offer a highly reliable duty cycle of 2.5 million, with double the toner capacity of earlier models.
\n\u201cThe IQ-501 is a differentiator for us,\u201d adds Mr Lorenz. \u201cWhile other manufacturers have similar technology, we believe our unique, inline auto inspection unit will separate us from the pack of comparable devices.\u201d
\nKonica Minolta recognizes the launch of the AccurioPress C14000 and C12000 as a major opportunity to enter into the high-production print equipment segment. Both the AccurioPress series of printers and the IQ-501 Intelligent Quality Care are designed and offered to the market exclusively by Konica Minolta.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
