More passes, better quality
Printing in fewer passes cuts the time on the machine, and more passes raise the quality at a slower speed. Many shops run banners in draft or production mode and keep quality mode for close-view prints.
Picking a structure
- XP600: the single, double and triple head models on both widths
- I1600: higher listed speeds at the same width and head count
- I3200: the fastest 3200mm models in the range
- Double or triple heads multiply the speed and the head maintenance
