High-Potential Digital Press meets the needs for high-speed processing, high-volume production and continuous operation for orders of widely-varied print jobs. Not only high productivity, High-Potential Digital Press offers the ability to handle an expanded range of paper types and is capable of stable, high-speed output of thin coated paper flyers to thick paper pop, for example, traditionally regarded as being difficult to handle.

High-productivity capable of high-volume processing of a wide diversity of jobs
Capable of handling paper ranging from 55 g/m2 to 350 g/m2, bizhub PRESS C1100/C1085 realises 100% productivity. Large volumes of highly-varied papers can be handled to realise print products with short lead time. Stable production performance makes it possible to meet tight deadlines and supports the customer’s business expansion.

Newly-developed suction feeder
An air suction paper-feed belt is incorporated in the PF-707/PF-708* paper-feed unit. In addition to air blown from the sides by the air-assist function, an air stream is also applied from the front to separate the paper, which is then adhered to the suction belt for conveyance. Optimised air control and improved bonding area during paper feed ensures more stable paper feed for thick coated paper.
*Optional
*If two or more PF-707, 708 units are installed in a row, FA-502 must be connected as a bypass option.
*Paper feeding and delivering capacities are all for 80gsm paper.

Setting of large volumes of highly-varied paper types
With all options mounted, the paper feeding system can be expanded to handle 9 highly-varied paper types with a maximum input paper capacity of 13,890 sheets and maximum output capacity of 10,000 sheets. Tasks such as paper replenishment and removal can be performed during printing, enabling the processing of high-volume catalog jobs with ease.

High paper processing ability to handle a wide range of paper types
bizhub PRESS C1100/C1085 has a high level of paper compatibility, making it possible to reduce damage to paper caused, for example, by heat or conveyance. For paper weights of 55 g/m2 to 350 g/m2, bizhub PRESS C1100/C1085 supports a wide range of paper sizes from postcard size to 330 x 487mm, and can accommodate market needs for special printing with ease.

High level of paper compatibility
Konica Minolta has developed a new fusing system to enhance media handling capabilities. Conveyance reliability has been enhanced by incorporating a new inlet roller and fusing belt steering mechanism in the air blow fusing separation unit, improving conveyance of paper ranging from thin to thick types and making it possible to meet the high-variety needs of printing on demand.

High image positioning accuracy
The high-precision registration unit, combining the existing paper skew detection/auto-correction mechanism with an interim roller nip release mechanism and a registration unit skew correction mechanism enables realisation of high front-to-back registration accuracy.

Printing area that makes effective use of paper
bizhub PRESS C1100/C1085 accommodates paper size up to a maximum of 330 × 487mm. Capable of handling a maximum printing area of 321 × 480mm, bizhub PRESS C1100/C1085 is capable of A3-size printing with crop marks, needless to say, and also A4 size 2-up printing with crop marks.
