Dantex’s digital division, part of the Dantex Group, has announced a new distributor partnership in the USA with All Printing Resources (APR), an Illinois-based supplier of print solutions to the labels and packaging market. APR will sell both Dantex PicoColour and PicoJet digital presses, as well as provide proprietary Dantex inks for both systems. 

Dave Nieman, APR’s president and CEO, states, “We are very pleased to have this excellent opportunity to support our customers in the digital space. We have been impressed with the Dantex technology and look forward to adding one of their UV Inkjet presses at our Chicago-area based Innovation Center for training and demonstrations.”

“APR is a leader in delivering process solutions to the printing industry, and we’re delighted that they will now be a distributor for our Dantex Pico range of digital presses,” adds Ben Danon, CEO, Dantex Group. “Their technical knowledge, particularly in workflow support and color management, together with an excellent reputation in the industry, will help us provide unparalleled service and support to our North American digital customers.”

PicoColour uses the very latest in printhead technology. Versatile and with a small footprint, the label printing system offers excellent printed results and is suitable for short- and long-run jobs. And providing all the benefits of digital printing for today’s demanding production environment, including no minimum quantity, inline finishing, no waste and a fast turnaround, the press is built to last, competitively priced and simple to operate and maintain, the company says.

PicoJet is a highly productive UV digital inkjet press, with ultra-high-speed production up to 250 fpm (75 m/m) and is capable of producing more than 9 million linear meters (29.5 million linear feet) of printed labels per year. As a 5-color printing system, it offers enhanced print quality thanks to its 2.5 picoliter droplet size and an effective resolution of 1200 x 1200 dpi, and with the inking system offering excellent laydown of each color on the previously printed color, constant accuracy and quality is maintained.
