BOSTON, March 05, 2008 -- Xerox
Corporation received a Best of Show Award for the Xerox 8265 Color Wide Format
Printer at the annual AIIM/On Demand Conference and Exposition, a major event
for the document imaging industry. The Best of Show Awards program recognizes
innovative technologies in nine different categories.
InfoTrends, a leading market research and consulting firm for the digital imaging
and document solutions industry, partnered with the On Demand Conference and
Exposition to produce the awards program.
The Xerox 8265, a winner in the wide-format printing category, is designed
for commercial print providers, copy shops, graphic design agencies, sign shops,
display companies and in-plant operations.
"This award recognizes Xerox's commitment to providing our customers with
innovative technology to help them capture new business in the growing digital
marketplace," said Valerie Blauvelt, vice president of marketing, Xerox
Production Systems Group. "The Xerox 8265 opens up an entirely new set
of high-value print jobs for customers looking to complement their current capabilities
or enter the expanding graphic communications color wide-format market."
Compatible with a wide range of media types, the Xerox 8265 produces vibrant
graphics on indoor and outdoor point-of-purchase displays, banners, signs, posters,
life-size photos and floor graphics. The printer uses a combination of inkjet
technology and environmentally friendly eco-solvent inks, which means no ventilation
or air purification systems are required during production and prints can last
up to three years without lamination. Piezo-electric, drop-on-demand inkjet
heads with dynamic variable dot imaging and intelligent interweaving print technology
deliver sharp images, smooth color transitions and increased performance with
higher firing frequencies. These technologies combine to enable lower ink consumption
and keep costs down.
In addition to the award-winning Xerox 8265, Xerox is showcasing a variety
of technology at its On Demand exhibit booth (No. 1449) including the flagship
Xerox iGen3™ 110 Digital Production Press, Xerox Nuvera™ 288 Digital
Perfecting System, Xerox DocuColor™ 8000AP Digital Press and Xerox 495
Continuous Feed Duplex Printer. Also on display are Xerox FreeFlow™ Digital
Workflow Collection and ProfitAccelerator™ Digital Business Resources
collection.
