The AcceleJet printing and finishing system from Pitney Bowes is now available worldwide. The company said the roll to cut-sheet printing solution provides a simple, cost-effective path to high-quality colour inkjet at a cost comparable to many monochrome options.

When combined with Pitney Bowes’ customer engagement software, services and mail finishing equipment, AcceleJet can be the centrepiece of an end-to-end White Paper Factory Solution for print and mail service providers who generate four 10 million transactional or direct-mail printing impressions per month.  

It is a compact system, measuring 25.3 feet long, with one-up roll to dynamic perforation, to cut-sheet output through a high quality, duplex colour inkjet print engine that fits within existing cut-sheet workflows.

According to Pitney Bowes, AcceleJet produces full-colour, personalised communications with two-to-five-times greater throughput over existing monochrome, spot colour, or full colour cut sheet toner systems and features a wide range of built-in finishing options that allow more types of jobs to be processed on a single platform.

Among the features is advanced output flexibility through integrated finishing, including dynamic cross perforation, linear perforation, automated job separation, and servo-controlled precision cutting.

‘A number of mid-volume mailers with cut-sheet workflows are looking for a cost-effective way to transition to inkjet. Given our familiarity with these clients and our experience with production print in the complex transactional mail segment, we believe this is a space where we can add value,’ said Jason Dies, president of Pitney Bowes Document Messaging Technologies.

The addition of AcceleJet extends Pitney Bowes’ range of production printer offerings, which also includes IntelliJet 20, 30 and 42 systems.
