The DP-S550 Explained...

The DP-S550 is a high quality digital duplicator offering 300x600dpi resolution running at 150 pages a minute and consuming a fraction of the energy a colour copier would use. The quality makes the DP-S550 a credible alternative to offset litho printing for single and two-colour jobs, but it has a cleaner environmental footprint thanks to power down when idle and no heat generation when running. It is also much easier to use than a litho press.

Why buy? For business owners

The DP-S550 is a versatile digital duplicator that is a viable alternative to both standard copiers and to small format offset litho printing. It can produce a wide range of products with the economies of scale associated with conventional printing and the ease of use of photocopy type printers. Further the cool running of the duplicator allows it to run window envelopes which would not be possible on a toner based machine. USB connectivity means the DP-S550 can plug into a standard Mac or PC or into a computer network using an Ethernet connection. Contrast and enlargement controls increase versatility further.

Why buy? For operators

The operator has a wide range of functionality to simplify the task of printing out good quality sheets, with a simple to use interface to guide the unskilled through set up and running the DP-S550. The 300x600dpi imaging head ensures that every hole in the master is perfectly formed which means consistent quality on output. The high carbon soy ink enhances the contrast on halftone images and produces well-defined text even at small resolutions. The simple to use controls include options to maximise set up for a number of product types.

Customer Comments

“There is no make-ready or clean down, no paper waste at all, and practically instant automatic plate changing. The operator can get on with finishing the books while Duprinters are printing on their own.”
Publisher and Book Distributor, Oxfordshire

“We chose Duplo because of the offset quality and the helpful front-loading paper bins. In comparison with our other model it’s very cheap to run, much more economical, we’re very please with it.”
College, Worcestershire

“The DP-S550 has improved the quality of our work substantially and we have also made significant economic savings as we can now handle much of our work in-house rather than outsourcing it to local copy shops.”
