OKI Data to Show White and Color-on-Color Printing Capabilities at PRINT 17

CHICAGO - September 7, 2017 - OKI Data Americas has announced that its best-in-class color capabilities spanning the company’s light production, wide-format and textile offerings, including its groundbreaking CMYK + white solution, will be demonstrated in its booth #3218 at PRINT 17, Sept. 10-14, in Chicago.

OKI Data Americas' proColor C942dn printer.

Leading the lineup will be OKI’s proColor C942dn printer, the company’s most revolutionary machine that lays down unparalleled high-density white toner under color in a single pass, allowing for outstanding full–color graphics on dark-colored media in addition to color on white stocks. Offering print shops an opportunity to differentiate themselves from the competition, the small footprint machine uses superior toner at a lower price point and prints on a wide range of media including envelopes, magnetic media, polyester, transparent film and heavier stock, unlocking a host of new possibilities for graphic artists.

New for PRINT 17, OKI will have our in-house master designer on the show floor, demonstrating white and color-on-color design techniques, allowing users to experience the full capabilities of the C942dn from on-screen designing, to file set-up, to finished product. These sessions will be offered throughout the show in booth #3218.

“Every year at PRINT, we look forward to meeting commercial printers and showcasing first hand our solutions and color capabilities,” said Lou Stricklin, director of product marketing, Industrial Business Unit at OKI. “This is an exciting time to be a part of this evolving industry, and our focus continues to be helping print shop owners and operators differentiate their businesses and stay competitive. From our C942dn that lays white and CMYK toner down in a single pass to our neon textile printers and best-in-class ColorPainter wide-format printers – we are excited to demonstrate the unrivaled richness, vibrancy and durability of our colors that open doors for creative minds and print shop owners alike.”
