Hey guys,
Im looking for a printer that can print on thick cardstock (up to 350gsm +) that has the ability to print white ink. I’m based in Australia and my budget is under $40k
The main one I’ve been able to find is an Oki pro 9452 but I haven’t heard the best reviews, especially in terms of the opacity of the white. I’m going to be using it mainly for wedding invitations/stationary where the white text is going to be quite small when printed on card stock so I want something that will print white quite crisp against dark cardstock (I know I can print darker backgrounds on white card stock and remove the text from that but I want to actually print white). Has anybody had experience with this or could recommend something better?
Xerox doesn’t seem to be available here, I think it’s been bought out by Fuji and called Fujifilm now but the only white ink capable one that I can see is the Revoria press pc1120 and I think that’s going to be way out of budget (still waiting for a quote). Also feels like a bit of overkill for what we’re going to be using it for.
I’m also waiting for a quote for a Ricoh pro C7500 but I also feel that’s going to be out of budget and overkill too.
Surely there are others out there that aren’t full blown production units but better quality than the Oki?
I already have a UV printer and don’t want to do it on that as I want something more automated where it’ll print multiple sheets without me having to lay and line each one up.
Would really appreciate any advice or recommendations if you have any
