• EFI Jetrion: The Jetrion 4000 UV inkjet system offers label converters a full color, narrow-web alternative to toner-based printers for label runs of up to 50,000. With speeds of up to 100 fpm at more than 1,000 dpi with grayscale technology, the device delivers full-color label printing up to 5.5˝ wide. Features include pre-diecut label printing functionality, variable data printing (VDP) enhancements, a new ink set, and a new software suite. The Jetrion 4000 reportedly is the only digital label printing press whose hardware, software, and UV ink are all designed and made by the same company. More information is available at www.efi.com .
