Features

Fully Modular

With Colorado M-series, you can upgrade your printer as your business needs evolve, most without needing a service visit:

  • In-field speed upgrade, taking your M3 model to an M5
  • Add White as an upgrade – with just a service visit
  • Larger 1 litre ink bottles, and smaller 0.7 litre ones – or both on a M5 model
  • FLXfinish+: glossy, matte or mixed glossy/matte finish in one print
  • Double-sided and print-side-in printing
  • Kit for magnetic media

White Ink Without Worry

Use unique UVgel technology to print documents with high-opacity white ink, with speeds that are up to 3 times faster than comparable technologies. Ensure high quality output with FLXfinish+ technology and enjoy hassle-free white ink printing with no daily manual maintenance or printhead treatment needed.

Consistent Quality

Consistently excellent colour quality with precise, sharp dots, a wider colour gamut, strong saturation for dark colours and accurate skin tones. Several certifications guarantee print quality. Most importantly, the 3M™ MCS™ Warranty, Avery Dennison ICS Warranty and GREENGUARD™ Gold certification for safe indoor use in the most sensitive environments.

Premium Application Range

Print large-format graphics in matte, gloss or mixed matte/gloss. Create textured, transparent, coloured and reflective media, and produce a range of output including self-adhesive vinyl and banners. PRISMAguide XL supports the easy preparation of many multilayer print jobs such as underflood, overflood, 3 or 5 layer print jobs.

Improved Sustainability

Reduce energy consumption with the low-heat, energy-efficient LED curing system and instant-on operation. Print on environmentally-friendly materials and use up to 40% less ink with UVgel technology.

Low Operating Cost

Reduce labour costs with automated roll feeding, an easily refillable ink and an advanced highly automated new maintenance system. Save on running costs with reduced ink and energy usage and upgrade your speed even further, without the need for lengthy service visits.

Unique Technology

uvgel_3-2_770x540
UVgel Advantage: A unique ‘print-then-cure’ technology with instant-dry gel inks, cured with UV LED lights. The advantage of a gel over a fluid is that it is possible to deposit more ink in less passes, without the ink flowing in and over the medium. Ensuring razor-sharp prints with a wide colour gamut and consistently repeatable over time and over different machines. Odourless and extremely durable.
flxfinishplus_3-2_770x540
FLXfinish⁺ Technology: Mixed Glossy/Matte Finish in One Print: This ingenious technology maximizes the UVgel advantage with either a single- or a two-step curing strategy. It enables you to print high value applications with a velvety matte finish for interior décor or a brilliant gloss finish for display and packaging, and now also mixed matte-gloss applications without additional costs.

 UVgel Inks: Flexible and more stretchable inks allow printing on a broad media range, including plain paper, self-adhesive vinyls and polyester textiles. The increased stretch ability ensures you can plie, bend or fold the prints without problems for applications as soft signage or fine-art canvas.
C1650---PAINT_770x540
PAINT Technology: No need to babysit the printer as in the printheads, the nozzle status is continuously monitored with Piezo Acoustic Integrated Nozzle Technology (PAINT). When a malfunction is detected, the affected nozzle is (temporarily) switched off and compensated for by neighbouring nozzles. When the time is right, the print heads are cleaned. Fully automated.
