| Description Rimage Standalone Everest Printer
Media Supply is proud to offer Rimage Everest III standalone printer. Now you can create high-resolution labels that are bonded directly to the surface of your CDs and DVDs! This is a perfect permanent solution for creative, retail, medical, and financial applications.
Everest III, with Rimage's pioneering thermal retransfer printing technology, prints and bonds your custom, colorful, high-resolution digital artwork directly to the surface of CDs and DVDs for a permanent print solution essential for many professional applications. Enhancements include increased color accuracy, added hardware and software functionality, and enhanced ribbon communication, resulting in a combination of unmatched reliability, long print run capabilities, print permanence and the industry's lowest cost per disc.
The Everest III utilizes Rimage's patented retransfer printing process. The CMY panels are first printed to a clear retransfer ribbon inside the printer. Then, using heat and pressure, the printed image and a layer of the clear ribbon are applied to the disc in less than 57 seconds. And because the ink is not water based, you will never see a smeared Everest III disc. Everest III printing also won't scratch off. Discs are meant to be used for commercial distribution; Everest III printed discs can withstand the rigors of day-to-day consumer handling.
CD-Designer label creation software is also included with the Everest III. This software allows you to import graphics and text with features that include serialization, bar codes, and data merging capabilities. The printer also works well with industry-standard graphics and design software.
The pigmented ink on the Everest III ribbons is UV protected, ensuring vibrant colors throughout the life of a disc. Everest III disc printing will pass any sunshine or dashboard test you devise - a significant advantage over other disc printers.
The Everest III employs an innovative variable dot technology, where the dots composing an image vary in size, resulting in sharper images with greater detail. In addition, the MicroDry ink is actually a thermal resin that contains pigment. This dry technology produces a dot with a fine edge. Consequently, dots per inch, or DPI, does not accurately reflect the print resolution. A better measure is lines per inch (LPI), and that is where Everest III truly shines. Silk-screen printing typically produces 85-120 LPI, and magazines are generally offset printed at 150 LPI. Everest III prints labels at 173 LPI color or monochrome, that is better than silk-screen!
Full color printing for photo-realistic images, monocolor printing for special effects or economy, white media, silver media - all are possible with Everest. The Everest III printing ribbons are on an easy-to-change carriage so even when a ribbon change is required, it's easy and can be done in less than a minute.
