Océ TCS500 receives "Highly Recommended" rating from independent analysis source BERTL
Venlo, the Netherlands, 26 October 2006—Océ announced that the Océ TCS500, the world's fastest large format color print/copy/scan system for CAD and GIS applications, has received a "4-Star, Highly Recommended" rating from BERTL, an independent, industry-leading source of product evaluation reports and comparative analyses. Of the hundreds of digital imaging devices evaluated by BERTL, only a select few that demonstrate superior business-critical functions and deliver a high return on investment receive this coveted rating.
“During BERTL’s extensive testing spanning multiple vertical sector scenarios, the Océ TCS500 performed seamlessly delivering good quality output, high levels of productivity all with the minimum of user intervention. This combination of feature set, productivity and usability puts the Océ TCS500 firmly on the BERTL Highly Recommended list.”
Kent Villarreak, Director, Workflow & Wide Format Analysis, BERTL.
The recently introduced Océ TCS500 is ideally suited for users in the AEC, government, utilities, manufacturing and reprographic industries that need to print or plot both black and white and color large format drawings. The system automatically optimizes print speed and quality with its revolutionary Dynamic Switching Technology. The Océ TCS500 is unsurpassed in overall productivity. In addition to being the world's fastest color CAD printer, it also provides true concurrency—robust processing, printing, copying and scanning simultaneously—resulting in bottom-line savings and measurable productivity benefits. Furthermore, the powerful Océ Power Logic® Controller with its 80 GB hard disk capacity processes large files extremely quickly and processes the next file while the current one is printing, minimizing delays and waiting time aggravations.
"This recognition from BERTL helps to further substantiate the many benefits the Océ TCS500 brings to large format color CAD and GIS printing workflow in the key areas of productivity, quality, ease of use, and reliability," said Sal Sheikh, Vice President, Marketing, Océ Wide Format Printing Systems division of Océ North America. "It is also a testament to the Océ commitment to provide customers with innovative printing solutions that can improve the way people work."
