Award-winning EFI Nozomi 18000+ LED printer commercially available

With a first successful installation completed and a second to come soon, the new EFI Nozomi 18000+ LED single-pass printer for point of sale and display graphics producers from Electronics For Imaging, Inc. stands to redefine productivity and new opportunity in signage production. The 1.8-metre (71 inch) wide printer, running three to five times faster than all other scanning head printers, is the first single-pass, ultra-high-speed digital printer designed and built for the sign and display graphics market.

During the FESPA Global Print Expo at Berlin Messe, EFI announced that the printer is now commercially available worldwide, with two sales already completed. The sales include a Nozomi 18000+ LED single-pass printer currently installed and running in North America, and a second printer to be installed in Q3 at a customer location in Europe.

Leveraging the capabilities of the market-leading EFI Nozomi C18000 Plus printer for direct-to-board corrugated packaging production, the Nozomi 18000+ LED printer delivers high-end output on a wide range of media in quantities other digital solutions cannot match. For businesses with high-volume demand, it represents an important opportunity to grow profitability, capitalising on the printer’s ability to deliver the lowest cost per square metre and a lower overall total cost of ownership.
