Print Solutions
Kodak is to highlight speed and versatility in production printing by running live demonstrations of the prosper 7000 Turbo Press, web fed full colour inkjet press, at Hunkeler Innovationdays 2025 (February 24 to 27, Lucerne, Switzerland), at booth P4 in hall 1. The show will be the Prosper 7000 Turbo Press’s first appearance in Europe.
The press will be printing with water based Ektacolor inks in a roll to roll configuration with an unwinder and a rewinder designed and manufactured by Kodak. It is capable of printing at speeds of up to 410 metres per minute. and its three modes — Turbo, Performance and Quality — enable printers to easily fine tune optimal speed and quality balance for each job. These capabilities make it an excellent solution for migrating larger direct mail, commercial, transactional, and book printing jobs from offset to digital.
During Hunkeler Innovationdays, Kodak will be printing various applications on the press several times a day. Along with scheduled demos, printers can book individual demonstrations of the press through the company’s sales representatives.
Visitors to the booth will also have the opportunity to view a vast collection of print samples illustrating the high quality output and the variety of applications that can be produced with the Prosper Ultra 520, powered by Kodak Ultrastream Technology, and the new Prosper Print Bar, which incorporates Prosper Plus Imprinting Systems.
Kodak, in cooperation with partners Horizon International and Hunkeler, will also demonstrate the efficient processing of paper rolls printed on Prosper presses into finished printed products. A saddlestitched catalogue will be produced on a Horizon Ice StitchLiner Mark V, and a Hunkeler paper processing line will handle a demanding direct mail application.
‘We are excited to bring the Prosper 7000 Turbo Press to Europe for the first time and to raise the bar in terms of speed and production efficiency at Hunkeler Innovationdays. This cutting edge inkjet press helps printers transition from offset to digital production and profitably serve their customers,’ commented Jim Continenza, executive chairman and chief executive officer, Kodak. ‘Our Prosper presses, using high speed continuous inkjet technologies and proprietary Kodachrome and Ektacolor inks and Kodak Optimax primers, help printers succeed in the ‘and’ era of print by providing ultra productive, cost effective printing of a wide range of applications.’
