Also new was the Toshiba 3100c. It outputs 31 cpm in color and monochrome at 9,600x600 dpi. Features include scan once/print many capability, dual compression imaging technology, a four-beam laser unit, and single pass four-drum tandem design

The web-fed Xeikon 5000 was at the show, boasting speeds of 7,800 full-color pages per hour (130 ppm). It has an inline densitometer, and press registration and calibration are automated. The new digital front end, the X-800, offers an enhanced tool box for rapid, optimum workflow automation. It can easily process jobs with complex graphics using variable date from more than one million records. The X-800 allows simultaneous setup, RIPing and printing of a file, increasing productivity. Another productivity plus: toner can be added to the 5000 during a print run.
