Canon Expands ColorStream 8000 Series of High-Speed Web-Fed Inkjet Presses

Canon U.S.A. Inc. launched two new models, the ColorStream 8200 and 8110, which  will look to build on the success of the ColorStream 8000 series of high-speed, web-fed inkjet presses.

The ColorStream has proven to be an attractive investment for high-volume print production environments since its original launch in 2011, with more than 1,800 towers installed worldwide.

The latest additions to the series now includes the ColorStream 8200, offering a maximum speed of up to 656 feet per minute, making it one of the most productive models in the series. The ColorStream 8110, which offers up to 361 feet per minute, is an additional option for print service providers (PSPs) wanting to invest in a new ColorStream press while maintaining existing finishing equipment.

Both new models feature native 1200 DPI printheads and highly pigmented water-based polymer inks, designed for a wide color gamut on uncoated, recycled, inkjet-coated matte and inkjet-treated paper without pre-treatment.

“We’re excited to announce the additions of the ColorStream 8110 and flagship ColorStream 8200 and look forward to seeing them contribute to our goal of working to deliver outstanding productivity, efficiency and quality in both print and finishing,” said Shinichi “Sam” Yoshida, EVP and GM, Canon U.S.A., Inc. “Increasing productivity without compromising reliability or quality remains a goal and these models can work to provide our customers with the resources they need to succeed.”
