Automated Disc Label Printing
The Trilogy printer delivers automated, on-disc printing of up
to 600 CDs or DVDs. Fitted with three of the industry’s leading
inkjet printers, the OptiPrinter Pro, the Trilogy’s robotic arm
transfers discs from the input spindles directly into the printers
for printing. Once complete, discs are removed to the output spindles.
The combination of three printers with a 600 disc capacity enables
long and continuous operation. Approximately 600 discs can be printed
(at standard quality) in five hours. Printing starts to take place
as soon as the disc is placed into the printer drawer. Asynchronous
printing ensures maximum productivity at all times.
600 Disc Capacity
The Trilogy has a massive 600 disc capacity. Three spindles, each
holding 200 discs sit on a revolving turntable so that when one
spindle of discs has been exhausted the turntable automatically
positions the next spindle of discs ready to print.
Up to three different print jobs can be processed by the Trilogy
in any one unattended session using the batch operation feature.
Print jobs will run concurrently. What’s more, the catch mechanism
on the robotic arm holds discs by the centre hole edge ensuring
that the disc’s print surface will not be touched, delivering professional,
full-face printed discs.
Operation
The Trilogy is connected to a PC via a USB cable and one D-sub
9-pin (RS-232C) cable. With the user friendly software interface
it is easy to send print files (PRNs) to the Trilogy.
Print Quality
The OptiPrinter Pro features HPs’ unique PhotoREt IV colour-layering
technology which is able to deliver vivid, true-to-life photos.
HP PhotoREt IV controls the placement of the 6-inks more precisely
than ever before. The outstanding print quality is also achieved
through the clever design of the drawer mechanism, which holds the
discs in place to such a high degree of accuracy, that the finest
inkjet printing can take place. The drawer mechanism’s superior
in/out tray also allows for fast printing speeds. The OptiPrinter
Pro uses standard HP colour , photo and black ink cartridges for
the most cost effective printing possible.
Designed to meet specifically the requirements of professional
duplicators whose customers expect immediate fulfillment of “on
demand” orders.
