NORWALK, Conn. — How do you make the industry’s most productive digital production color platform even better? Add a fifth color option, boost press uptime and offer multiple speed choices – the calling cards of the new Xerox (NYSE: XRX) iGen® 5 Press.

According to InfoTrends, the high-end digital production color market will expand from around 60 billion pages today to 87 billion pages globally by 2018, offering a significant growth opportunity for print service providers.

Thousands of iGen presses are already creating billions of high-quality, high-margin sales brochures, posters, photo books and pieces of direct-mail – often personalized and always in vibrant color. With the iGen platform, productivity gains of up to 25 percent can be achieved since less time is spent on reprinting, quality control and job setup, continuing to make iGen devices the most productive digital presses on the market. And now there’s another option to continue that momentum.

Xerox (NYSE: XRX) is charging forward and reinforcing its leadership in mobile printing with five new business apps helping employees create, share and process information without servers, middle-ware or IT support.

“Smartphones and tablets open up tremendous opportunities to leverage our office technology, enabling people to be productive whether they are on-site or working remotely,” said Jim Rise, senior vice president, Office and Solutions Business Group, Xerox. “We are already recognized as a leader in office software and solutions, and with these business apps we are delivering new ways to drive productivity and agility.”

NORWALK, Conn. — A new solution from Xerox and Fotoba provides the industry’s fastest production of full-bleed and multi-up posters, banners and signage, at speeds as fast as five seconds per page.

The Fotoba FHS42 Cutter runs in-line with the Xerox Wide Format IJP 2000 to increase automation and accelerate delivery speeds. For printers, that means opportunities to improve their profitability and to become the go-to shop for quick turnarounds.

The cutter has one horizontal and as many as four vertical trimming blades for 1-, 2-, or 3-up full-bleed finishing. The system reads embedded crop marks on each print to align and continuously adjust its cutting blocks to deliver cuts accurate to 0.04 inches (1 millimeter).
