It is a 7-color press powered by Esko digital front-end with color management and variable printing suite. The N610i can print at a speed of up to 70 m/min and has the capability of achieving up to 92 percent of the Pantone gamut. Ajay RaoRane, assistant vice president, Domino Digital Printing, said: ‘The speed and print quality are achieved because there are fewer moving parts in the machine. We put the two together, hence the throughput of the Domino N610i and the process improvements starts to increase a revenue capacity. That’s our goal and will be remain with every Domino installation.’
