Agfa Graphics to Demo the Anapurna M2540 FB at CONSAC Imagemakers 2013

Weekend getaways are awesome. So is the ability to create large prints of images gathered from an awesome getaway. There's a chance to do both for attendees at CONSAC Imagemakers 2013, the Sign Association of Canada's national trade show (http://www.sac-ace.ca/consac) being held September 20th and 21st at International Centre in Mississauga, Ontario.

Agfa Graphics will showcase the Anapurna M2540 FB, its entry-level, flatbed UV inkjet printing system at booth #719 while raffling off a weekend getaway for two. The Anapurna M2540 FB is specifically designed to deliver near photo quality output on rigid substrates. Experts will be on hand to discuss the benefits of digital UV inkjet printing and how the M2540's revolutionary quick-change vacuum bed offers accurate multiple board output that ultimately saves time and money.

“Agfa Graphics' digital inkjet printing technologies are helping print service providers (PSPs) offer new products and applications to their clients. Our high-performance UV-curable inks and powerful workflow can help PSPs improve their bottom line,” said Ruben Silva, Managing Director, Agfa Graphics, Canada.

The Anapurna M2540 FB uses six colors (CMYKLcLm) plus white ink so it's ideal for printing on darker substrates or transparent media as well as backlit and front lit materials. It accommodates media sizes up to 8.3 x 5 feet and 1.77 inches thick and features speeds up to 484 ft2/hr.
