The printing industry’s first five-colour printer lands in South Africa

OKI South Africa was proud to see the long awaited and much anticipated new five-colour printer land in South Africa on 19 February 2014. The OKI ES9541 is the graphic arts industry first five-colour, A3 LED printer incorporating the latest advancement in printing technology that boasts a unique 5-Station Multimedia production platform that allows previously outsourced print jobs to be produced in-house.

The OKI ES9541 allows users to demonstrate their creativity and the ability to create extraordinary mock-ups, stationery, brochures, prototypes, point-of-sale materials, window graphics, labels and so much more in breathtaking HD colour.

In addition to C, M, Y, K process colours, the OKI ES9541 offers an extra spot colour in white or clear gloss. This capability was previously only available on expensive digital or litho graphic printing equipment.

Emile Pitout, OKI Speciality Product Manager said, ‘The introduction of the OKI ES9541 enables creative businesses such as design agencies or marketing firms and copy shops to produce a greater variety of material on demand, in short runs more cost-effectively than ever before. The white toner option is ideal for printing on colour paper, transparent film, T-shirt transfers and promotional merchandise; and the clear gloss for producing high quality catalogues, manuals, photo books and marketing documents.’
