Drupa--Direct Imaging Takes Center Stage

At Drupa, Xerox announced plans to add an integrated digital color scanner and feeding and finishing options to its DocuColor 2000. In another look to the future, Xerox introduced the Futurecolor press, which it says will produce 1 million full color pages per month. Still two to three years away from release, Futurecolor will automatically mix multiple paper stocks, tabs, inserts and bindings and produce assembled, color books, catalogs, brochures and more, using variable data to personalize each one.
