Bodoni launch inkWIZE at IPEX – fast affordable ink saving solution

Tuesday 11. May 2010 - inkWIZE automatic ink saving solution saves costs in more ways than one.

Until now ink saving solutions have been prohibitively expensive for all but the largest printing companies. inkWIZE is designed for users with an annual ink bill of £16,000. They will see a return on investment within a year just in lower ink bills.

At a cost of ¬£3,995/’Ǩ4,750/$5,995 inkWIZE is the most cost effective solution for all those who want to automate PDFs to standardized printing conditions and reduce ink usage.

Automating color conversion to a standardized print condition and optimizing ink coverage saves time in pre-press and produces files which are much easier to print.

Further savings are achieved through shorter drying times with less spray powder and fewer rub problems. Make-ready times are quicker as the ink key adjustments are more responsive when less ink is used.The press can run faster with a reduction of ink tack problems such as picking and back trapping, increasing productivity.

inkWIZE automated color server is simple to set up and easy to use. Select the appropriate DeviceLink Profile and auto-setup configures all the queues and settings. inkWIZE is now ready to process PDF, TIFF and JPEG files. Individual settings can be configured for handling spot colors and PDF-specific settings.

inkWIZE works on both Mac and PC and processes batch files in seconds. The speed of operation means that inkWIZE can run on older computers reducing the cost of purchase.

“We have long wanted to make automatic ink saving and print standardization an affordable solution for all printers. Using DeviceLink profiling and an extremely fast color server inkWIZE achieves color integrity with tremendous cost savings, says Ian Reid Managing Director of Bodoni Systems.
