KONIDA MINOLTA 2008 New Technology Four Features

Emperon Printing Control Technology

Emperon technology is a cutting-edge print control technology that is jointly developed by Konica Minolta engineers and is unique to both printers and printers. This technology differs from previous printing technologies in that it often focuses only on printing colors, speeds, etc., from software and humanity. In terms of design, the digital multifunction printers and color laser printers have undergone major upgrades. Digital multifunction printers and color laser printers using Emperon controller technology fully support the latest PS3 and PCL6 print languages.

Another breakthrough in Emperon's controller technology is its wider system compatibility. Users no longer have to replace the system to purchase a printer, so the purchase funds are also saved to the maximum extent possible. In addition, Emperon controller technology also incorporates the latest instruction optimizations to maximize the performance of the print engine.

Simitri-HD Polymerized Toner Technology

Simitri-HD polymerized toner is chemically polymerized instead of traditionally ground. The toner particles are uniform in size, resulting in clear, sharp output and superior text printing. The “wax” substance is added to the polymerized carbon powder, which makes the melting point about ten degrees lower than that of the ordinary toner, achieving better edge sharpness, filling more real, and making the details more realistic. And due to the low melting point of the polymerized toner, the oil-free fixing system is better matched. The most direct benefit of this system is that the energy consumption is greatly reduced, the life of the heating element is improved and extended, and the output device is improved. Stability, saving costs. At the same time, the internal environment of the equipment without oil evaporation is also conducive to the cleaning and maintenance of the machine. Secondly, the use of polymerized toner to print carbon dioxide, sulfur oxides, nitrogen oxides and other acidic gases is lower than the 40% released by traditional carbon powder, reflecting the concept of health and environmental protection. Finally, the use of polymerized toner compared to conventional toner saves 30% of the toner consumption during the printing process, effectively reducing the user's printing costs.

The new generation of Simitri HD polymerized toner continues the excellent quality of Simitri toner and once again lowers the fixing temperature, reduces the occurrence of paper curl due to high temperatures, expands the range of paper applications, and reduces energy consumption by 15%. . Its special production process and excellent features make it able to withstand the test of time and ensure that color lasts forever.

PictBridge Photo Direct Print Technology

PictBridge's direct-attached print technology was used in inkjet printers in the past, but Konica Minolta has pioneered industry standards to apply this technology to laser printers. The greatest advantage of this technology is that it can connect to any digital camera that supports the PictBridge protocol for direct printing without going through the computer. The user can preview the photo through the menu in the digital camera, and can directly set the number of prints and select and print the photo, and can perform image centering processing on the color laser printer. The majority of Konica Minolta laser printers currently have this technology.

High-speed four-color inline engine

Unlike the traditional printing mode, which requires four-step (CMYK four colors) transmission, the high-speed four-color in-line engine can completely complete the coloration of four colors of CMYK within one step. This combination of performance and faster image forming technology, on the basis of ensuring the best output, greatly speeds up the output of color and black-and-white documents.
