Canon announces varioPRESS iV7

Canon U.S.A., Inc. announced an expansion of its production inkjet portfolio and entry into the B2 Sheetfed Inkjet Press market with the Canon varioPRESS iV7. The varioPRESS iV7 can produce 8,700 B2 4/0 sheets per hour (4,350 B2 4/4 sheets per hour) and print up to 4.5 million B2 images per month. The varioPRESS iV7, looking to build on the continued success of the varioPRINT iX-series B3 digital sheetfed inkjet press, has been engineered to address the increasing pressures of general commercial print service providers (PSPs), online and publishing printers, and book producers, the company said.

The varioPRESS iV7 features 1200 dpi piezo printheads and water-based polymer pigment inks, combined with Canon’s ColorGrip conditioning liquid to reproduce vibrant colors, fine text and precise line details on media at high speed.

“We are thrilled to enhance our production inkjet portfolio with the varioPRESS iV7 to help address production challenges faced by printers,” said Shinichi “Sam” Yoshida, executive vice president and general manager, Canon U.S.A., Inc. “The versatility of this press serves as a valuable asset for delivering high-quality, high-production B2 output, marking a significant milestone in the evolution of inkjet technology. By offering this technology, we are empowering our customers to help seamlessly meet their ever-changing needs and excel in their businesses.”
