Inkjet Reimagined: The revolutionary new KODAK PROSPER ULTRA 520 Press
The KODAK PROSPER 6000 Press transformed the way printers use digital technology in commercial print applications. The KODAK PROSPER ULTRA 520 Press builds on that heritage and takes inkjet to the next level, delivering offset-like quality at a consistent production speed of 150 mpm/500 FPM on glossy papers with high ink coverage and variable print — all at the industry's lowest cost of operation.

The new press is the first Kodak-manufactured press using Kodak's revolutionary ULTRASTREAM writing system, which employs high-precision placement of smaller, perfectly round, satellite-free drops to produce the highest inkjet image quality available in the marketplace today. The PROSPER ULTRA 520 is engineered to maximize productivity by printing across a broad range of substrates using the industry's most versatile, highest quality and cost-effective water-based inks. As a complete system, the PROSPER ULTRA 520 is a game-changer that will help printers profitably grow their businesses across a range of applications, including direct mail, marketing collateral, catalogs, books and more. The PROSPER ULTRA 520 Press is scheduled to be available at the end of 2020.

With run lengths of up to 20,000 m2, or more with variable content, the Sapphire EVO W is a disruptive solution that allows brands to adopt innovative packaging that leverages the advantages of digital printing. The Sapphire EVO W Press is available today worldwide.
