Among the printing solutions being demonstrated is the C941dn – a revolutionary LED digital color printer featuring a five station toner configuration.  In addition to cyan, magenta, yellow and black, the device also supports a white or clear toner in the fifth position, delivering an expansive new world of printing capabilities. The C941dn is the first LED printer in its class to offer white or clear spot color printing together with extensive media handling capabilities.

Accompanying the C941dn is the new envelope feeder accessory. The roll-up, conveyer design has simple adjustments that make it easy to connect to the C941dn.

OKI Data introduced the MPP category of production-quality A3 color devices last year, expanding its broad and award-winning product portfolio. Attendees who visit the OKI Data booth will have an opportunity to see how the C941dn goes far beyond the capabilities of traditional digital color printers, adding game-changing media handling that includes transparent media, magnets, banners and heavyweight cardstock.

Another benefit of the OKI Multimedia Production Platform is the users’ ability to expand input and output capabilities with the addition of feeders, stackers and other supplemental hardware, plus an optional Harlequin™ raster image processor (RIP) for use with certain devices. All MPP devices were developed to meet a wide range of graphic arts and commercial printing needs.

In addition to the C941dn being demonstrated at the show is the LD630D – a high productivity desktop label printer. With superior performance at an affordable price, the LD630D is among the best in its class and is ideal when bar code labeling and tag applications are needed.

“OKI Data Americas is looking forward to participating in the Annex Brands National Convention, and demonstrating our revolutionary printers for the pay-for-print market,” said Terry Cruikshank, Senior Manager of Industry Marketing for OKI Data Americas. “OKI Data is proud to be demonstrating the C941dn and LD630’s capabilities and how the devices benefit and help expand revenue-generating opportunities for Annex Brands’ franchisees.”
