Oce VarioPrint 6250 System Receives Outstanding 'Beyond 5 Star' BERTL Rating

TRUMBULL, Conn., Jan 8 PRNewswire — Oce, a global leader in digital document management and delivery, announces that the Oce VarioPrint(R) 6250 digital print system has received an outstanding "Beyond 5 Star" rating from BERTL(R), a premier source for independent product evaluation reports and comparative analysis. In its analysis of the Oce VarioPrint 6250, BERTL called Oce Gemini Instant Duplex technology "one of the most groundbreaking technological advancements in the history of electrophotography."

Highest Honor Goes to Multiple Award Winner

BERTL rarely grants a Beyond 5 Star Rating. According to BERTL, this award is "reserved for the best of the best, the elite level performers in their class, delivering unparalleled quality."

The BERTL honor is the most recent of many awards received by the Oce VarioPrint 6250 system, which was introduced in March 2006. The printer also won the 2006 ON DEMAND Best of Show award, the 2007 InterTech(TM) Technology Award from the Printing Industries of America/Graphic Arts Technical Foundation (USA), and Best Product of the Year 2007 and Best Production Cutsheet Monochrome printer from the European Digital Press Association (EDP).

"We are honored to be recognized at such a level," said President and CEO of Oce North America, Joseph Skrzypczak. "Our customers continue to benefit from our industry leadership, and this outstanding BERTL rating acknowledges their trust in our solutions."

BERTL analyst and well-known researcher in the graphic arts printing segment, Ira Gold, helped produce the report. Gold noted, "BERTL's extensive tests revealed that the Oce VarioPrint 6000 series image quality and duplex registration were of the highest quality seen to date. In fact, the Oce VarioPrint Series is currently the most productive digital duplex cut-sheet printing system on the market. During testing, it became quite obvious that the Oce VarioPrint system and the Oce PRISMA(TM) software made the combined products a total integrated workflow solution." The report also cited the system for its ability to handle a wide range of media at high speeds, while delivering outstanding quality.

Extreme Testing in the Field

The Oce VarioPrint 6250 system is based on Oce Gemini Instant Duplex technology, the only technology in the industry to be able to print simultaneously on the back and front of a page in a single pass. The system prints 250 duplex prints minute, making it up to 70 percent faster than other printers in its class.

BERTL evaluated the Oce VarioPrint 6250 model in real-world environments, including a site producing short to medium length book runs. BERTL stated that the Oce VarioPrint 6250 system performed admirably in the field, noting the customer ran the system "under extreme workloads with little if any unscheduled downtime." The Oce VarioPrint 6250 system is well suited for this type of application. The Oce Gemini Instant Duplex technology supports near perfect registration of books, manuals and other publications, since the system prints both sides simultaneously. In addition, advanced active dynamic registration technology uses a battery of sensors to ensure perfect sheet positioning and print registration.
