New wide format printing systems make CAD and engineering printing fast and efficient
Poing, Germany, 27 March 2006—Océ will show the latest additions to its expanding range of wide format color systems at the Océ OpenHouse 2006. This event is Europe's largest annual digital printing fair, and will be held in Poing, Germany, from 27 to 31 March 2006. With these new wide format color systems, Océ gives users more choice than ever of printers and multifunctional systems for both Engineering and Display Graphics applications.
Océ introduces no less than four new wide format color systems
Océ has introduced no less than four new wide format color systems during the last few months, giving users more choice than ever from which to find exactly the right system for their requirements. The new systems are the Océ TCS500 multifunctional wide format printing system, the new Océ TCS300 wide format printer, and the Océ CS2044 and CS2024 color printers.
New systems reflect the rapidly increasing use of color
These new systems reflect the rapidly increasing use of color in the Engineering and CAD field, where color can be a big help in distinguishing complex details and information layers in drawings. But also in the growing Display Graphics segment, where many more in-house users are discovering the benefits of on-demand printing of all kinds of colorful promotional, decorative and informative materials.
The full system, professional printing, copying and scanning: the Océ TCS500
The new Océ TCS500 multifunctional wide format system offers a highly efficient solution for today's increasing volumes of color engineering and CAD documents. Together with its fast, convenient handling of black & white work, the Océ TCS500 brings professional productivity to the total wide format workflow. This system allows printing, copying and scanning of all kinds of wide format originals, both monochrome and color, from A4 to A0 and up to 36" wide. The system can be configured with up to three rolls of media, which eliminates the need to stop operations to change media. Operation is quick and convenient, eliminating time-wasting printing delays.
Maximum wide format productivity with the Océ TCS500
Ensuring maximum wide format productivity, the Océ TCS500 prints an A0 color plot in just one minute and an A0 monochrome plot in only 40 seconds.
The Océ TCS500 makes every wide format job easy, whether it is printing copying or scanning. For example it has advanced job submission software, and an innovative local control panel for easy copying and scanning. The ability to predefine templates for recurring copy and scan jobs allows complex operations to be performed at the push of a single button. The advanced Océ printing technologies ensure consistently high performance, even over long periods of operation. For example the intelligent Océ Dynamic Switching Technology automatically chooses the optimum print strategy for every document, eliminating the need for time-consuming manual settings. And the convenient color management module makes it easy to produce the expected colors on every job.

As well as high speed, the Océ TCS300 has easy operation that allows even occasional users to get excellent results every time. Fast, simple and efficient printing is assured with the Océ TCS300.
Successful color for every wide format job: the Océ CS2044 & CS2024
The new Océ CS2044 and CS2024, with printing widths of 44 inches and 24 inches, respectively, offer low-volume users successful color for every wide format print job. These new systems produce crisp, clear line drawings and brilliant color graphics, making them ideal for a wide range of applications including CAD, GIS, 3D renderings and all kinds of color graphics.
These two new systems meet the needs of single users and small workgroups to handle all their printing needs on a single system, enabling them to control their deadlines and to save outsourcing costs and time. They are available with a choice of the standard Windows driver or one of two optional RIPs¾Onyx CADPro for printing vector (CAD) files, and Onyx GraphicsPro for color graphics work¾to match workflow exactly to users' needs. Predefined Océ printing preferences automatically select the right settings for each print job, ensuring excellent results every time. The Océ media profiles make it easy to achieve consistent, high-quality results with different printing media.
Designed for excellent return on investment
All these new Océ systems are designed to meet users' needs for wide format color and monochrome printing today and for years to come with low maintenance requirements. That makes them an excellent investment for organizations of all sizes that need efficient wide format color solutions.
