PRINTER
Machine type
Mid-volume UV flatbed printer
Printing method
Piezoelectric inkjet
Number of nozzles
4-channel piezoelectric inkjet system with one 636-nozzle, variable droplet printhead per channel.
Ink configuration
CMYK
Image technology
piezoelectric inkjet system with variable droplet printheads
Print resolution
Variable droplet sizes from 6 to 42 picolitres. The ability to vary the drop size to 6 picolitres produces sharp images with smoother gradients and quartertones. The ability to jet larger droplets up to 42 picolitres produces uniform colors. The result is near-photographic quality with sharpness only before seen at resolutions of 1,440 dpi or higher. Text as small as 2 pt. is perfectly legible (with High Definition mode).

Upgrade path
Application of the 2-Channel Upgrade converts an Arizona 1240 XT to Arizona 1260 XT (adding White ink and/or Varnish capacity for backlit and non-white media applications) or Arizona 1260 L XT (adding Light Cyan and Light Magenta for near photo quality and fine-art printing) .
Application of the 2 x 2-Channel Upgrade converts an Arizona 1240 XT to Arizona 1280 XT (adding White ink and/or Varnish capacity for backlit and non-white media applications and adding Light Cyan and Light Magenta for near photo quality and fine-art printing).
Adding the APMS (Automatic Printhead Maintenance System) to the printer enables quick, reliable and hands-free cleaning of a single colour in less than 25 sec or all colours in 2 to 4 min (depends on the printer version).
