Speedy Banners the Essex based large format printer do exactly what they say on the tin, but lately they are able to produce wide format products much wider and speedier after recently investing in a Xenon’s M5 3.2m UV R2R Printer from Repro Sales & Repairs.
When Speedy Banners first approached RSR they were looking for something to give them a competitive edge in producing high quality wide format products within a specific budget.
Having looked at other smaller printers, RSR suggested that they could supply a Xenon’s M5 3.2m UV printer within their budget, this would give them the ability to print smaller items more economically as well as ultra large products that would give them a unique angle over there competition.
The air-cooled LED UV Curing system on the M5 instantly cures the print allowing for instant finishing and a much faster turnaround time with a fade and scratch resistant finish.
Being able to print larger rolls means Speedy can purchase the media at a more competitive price and offer all these benefits on to their customers.
Another thing that makes the M5 unique is its bulk ink system, this allows us to buy the ink at a competitive price and it's easy to see that we have used all the Ink in the bottle. With some of the cartridge systems your never quite sure the cartridge is completely empty.
Many companies make the mistake of looking at pure print speeds when comparing printers, but a wider UV printer allows you to handle and finish the product much quicker, this also helps to utilise your working space more effectively as you don't have jobs hanging around waiting for finishing.
As with the majority of Repro Sales UV Printers the M5 range allows you to start with minimal print heads to keep the initial investment low. If in the future you require greater performance or additional colours such as white, we can simply add the required print heads. The M5+ with the correct head configuration also offers the ability to print CMYK/W/CMYK in a single pass for Backlit images that look great in the day and night.
