GSP Installs Agfa's Jeti Tauro Line

GSP, the leading provider of retail services in North America, has converted its plants in Utah and Florida to Agfa's Jeti Tauro LED line of high production UV inkjet engines. 

The award-winning Jeti Tauro H3300 and H2500i LED presses proved a natural fit for GSP's multiple shifts, 24/7 environment.

"The Jeti Tauro LED printers demonstrated impressive throughput, low ink consumption, and thin ink lay down," stated Elaine Scrima, Vice President of Operations at GSP. "The increased clarity and ability to read fine text impressed our discerning account team."

Its Provo, Utah, facility installed three heavy-duty Jeti Tauro H3300 LED presses; one manual roll-to-roll and two master roll-to-roll configurations for either single- or dual-roll printing to achieve unattended, long-run print jobs at exceptional speeds.

The company added two Jeti Tauro H3300 LEDs (with master roll-to-roll and manual roll-to-roll capabilities) along with a Jeti Tauro H2500i LED at its Clearwater, Fla., site.

"GSP is thrilled to enter into a strategic partnership with longtime industry leader, Agfa," said Scrima. "Exceeding customer expectations is a priority for GSP. The addition of Jeti Tauro LED printers enables us to deliver even faster turn times and enhanced quality."

The hybrid family of Jeti Tauro LEDs combine vivid, six-color prints plus white or primer, with fine text quality at 4 point type and offer extreme productivity, low ink consumption and outstanding graphics. Agfa's wide-format workflow software Asanti drives the Jeti Tauro UV inkjet printer line, which simplifies and automates production.

Due to the high pigment load of Agfa-made inks and Asanti's ink saving algorithms, ink consumption per square meter is the lowest on the market. The result is an ideal balance between image quality, productivity and cost of ownership.

The Tauro H3300 LED's vivid, detailed images offer outstanding resolution of 635 by 1200 dpi in all print modes, output at extraordinary speeds up to 4,676 square feet per hour (453 square meters per hour) with prints up to 130 inches wide (3.3 meters). The robust, hybrid Jeti Tauro H2500i LED offers print speeds up to 2,960 square feet per hour (275 square meters per hour) with output up to 98 inches (2.54 meters) wide.

GSP's mission is to help its customers increase revenue, reduce costs and streamline communication while meeting their sustainability mandates. The company offers end-to-end retail solutions and services across all channels to make business better for its customers.
