QPS expands demo suite with triple ColorJet installation

ColorJet Verve 2513M, ColorJet Vulcan Hybrid X and ColorJet Verve Mini.

Quality Print Services (QPS), the one-stop-shop for the wide-format print market, has significantly expanded its demonstration suite in Lancashire with the installation of three ColorJet LED UV printers.

QPS was appointed as the official UK distributor for ColorJet's leading range of UV flatbed and soft signage printers in July 2021 and, in December 2022, moved into new purpose-built premises as part of its ongoing commitment to customers.

Thanks to this expansion, visitors to QPS’s specialist facility in Burscough will now be able to view live demonstrations of three of ColorJet’s leading machines, including the ColorJet Verve 2513M, ColorJet Vulcan Hybrid X and ColorJet Verve Mini.

ColorJet Verve 2513M

The ColorJet Verve 2513M with Ricoh Gen 6 printheads is an industrial flatbed LED UV printer
that runs at speeds of up to 60 sq.m/hr and enables high-quality direct printing onto almost any kind of rigid surface including wood, glass, leather and ceramic tiles. As such, it opens up a whole host of markets and applications to the user.

ColorJet Vulcan Hybrid X

The ColorJet Vulcan Hybrid X, also with Ricoh Gen 6 printheads, is a 2-metre wide, high-speed printer that can be used as both a flatbed and roll-to-roll printer. The device can handle substrates such as ACP, foam, board, flute board, glass, ceramic tiles, wood, vinyl and flexible media, opening up all manner of opportunities to users.

ColorJet Verve Mini

Meanwhile, the small-format ColorJet Verve Mini features Ricoh GH2220 printheads and offers another true flatbed LED UV option to customers. Offering users CMYK plus white and varnish, the printer can handle substrates up to 65mm thick, including foam board, acrylic, MDF, glass, tiles, cut sheets, leatherette, foil, corrugated paper and more. With a top printing speed of 60sq ft/hr and a compact size, the Verve Mini is the ideal choice for print service providers with limited floor space who are looking to enter new markets.

“We are delighted to be able to offer customers the opportunity to see these three machines up close at our live demo facility,” QPS Director Chris Bailey said. “The best way to learn more about printers like these and truly understand their capabilities is to see them in action.

“We are looking forward to welcoming both current and potential customers to our new and improved showroom.”
