Possible Colour Scheme
MICROPLEX strongly believe that there is a place in the market for a forty page per minute continuous
flash fusing printer. Based on this we are launching in December 2014 the SOLID F40 to replace the old
Pentax printers. Pricewise this will firmly sit below the old SOLID 32E and the existing competition.
STOP PRESS
UPDATE
After an informative meeting in Varel with the director of B-Core Inc, MICROPLEX can clearly see the
advantages of this technology especially in banks and hospitals where records need to be filed and
accessed quickly. Another area where the system can show real return on investment is libraries and
museums, where an inexpensive “one-shot” inventory solution can be realised. Finally the system can
be adapted for theme parks, to provide easy photo souvenir solutions that also includes added security
for the children; yes the future looks to be rosy for
and not only in the logistics sector.
