Intec’s CP3000
The manufacturer’s MFPs have been installed in 15 different countries in the past month.
PrintWeek reported on Intec’s success with the CP3000 range of MFPs, which it describes as “low-cost colour printer[s]”, and sales of which have been “outstripping expectations” since shipments started last month. The range of digital colour laser MFPs has so far been installed in 15 different countries, with demand coming from “in-house marketing departments and in-plants, as well as from SME printing companies”.
The devices, which can print colour A4 pages at a speed of 45ppm and monochrome at 50ppm, is said by the company to have the “lowest cost-per-copy in its class”, with a page with five percent colour coverage costing 1.56 pence ($0.25/€0.18), whilst the printer costs from £3,999 ($6,520/€4,735) “depending upon configuration”.
Mark Baker-Homes, Intec’s Business Development Director, stated: “Overall demand has been much higher than we initially expected, and we’ve also sold more with finishing solutions than we’d anticipated. The booklet finisher can staple fold and punch, and it handles covers up to 250gsm and inners up to 160gsm, so it’s substantially beefier than other solutions at this level.”
He added of the printers’ LED technology and EFI configurations: “[The range’s LED technology] takes it to the next level […] we’ve simplified things for users by building templates for popular business card cutters into the RIP, so it will set the cards up automatically.”
