DI Press - Presstek 34DI® Digital Offset Printing Press
Presstek 34DI is a highly automated four-color digital offset press ideally suited for fast turnaround, short-run, high-quality color printing. The 34DI produces up to 7,000 13.39 x 18.11” sheets per hour, file-to-sellable printed sheet consistently occurs in approximately 10 minutes. This streamlined workflow reduces the time and cost to turn a job around while delivering up to 300 lpi and stochastic screening on a broad range of substrate thicknesses up to 20pt. (0.06mm to 0.5mm). Presstek 34DI offers a low average cost per page for 250 to 10,000 impressions and can produce more jobs, more profitably in less time. The 34DI is available as the 34DI-X, a high productivity model and the 34DI-E an entry-level configuration.
Automated Printing
The DI auto print system streamlines the entire printing process, from plate advancing and imaging to printing and cleaning. Presstek's DI imaging technology, combined with a central impression cylinder and single gripper system, result in precise registration every time. Makereadies take ten minutes.
Compact and Environmentally Friendly Press Design
The unique design of Presstek DI presses offers a significantly smaller footprint than a conventional four-color press and its required platemaking solution. Presstek DI presses fit easily into any print shop. And best of all, with no film, off-press imaging equipment or intermediate processing steps, you save time, labor, floor space, and money with absolutely no compromise in quality. DI also eliminates the inconsistencies and environmental concerns that are normally associated with chemistry-based imaging and alcohol-based dampening systems.
Quality
With a push of a button, easily produce line screens up to 300 lpi or FM screening in precise register. Presstek DI presses are also waterless, which means the problems associated with ink water balance are eliminated, better color saturation is achieved, you’ll print with less dot gain, and a larger color gamut can be printed.
Efficient Digital Workflow
The Presstek DI digital offset printing press integrates seamlessly into Macintosh and Windows workflows. Files are RIP'ed directly to the press; text, images and imposition can be checked on the DI’s on-press monitor or by using a hardcopy proofing solution.
