Business Wire
Pitney Bowes (NYSE:PBI), a global technology company that
provides innovative products and solutions to power commerce, today
announced an agreement with TagG and HP to develop a new native
IPDS (Intelligent Printer Data Stream) Controller for the Pitney
Bowes IntelliJet and HP PageWide Web Press printing systems to
deliver higher-value communications.
The new controller will allow Pitney Bowes to serve
transactional print and mail clients who value native IPDS printer
controllers to leverage AFP (Advanced Function Presentation)
workflows. The announcement was made at Hunkeler Innovationdays
2017 in Lucerne, Switzerland. Hunkeler Innovationdays is a premier
global event for production print and finishing solutions.
“The IPDS controller will allow Pitney Bowes to offer an
additional option for clients who desire to create higher value
communications, or move to higher quality inkjet printing,” said
Jason Dies, President, Pitney Bowes Document Messaging
Technologies. “We’re grateful for the collaboration with our
long-term partner HP and our new partner TagG, and excited to bring
this new capability to market.”
The new IPDS controller will be sold and supported by Pitney
Bowes and will be available globally beginning Q3 2017.
At Hunkeler Innovationdays, HP announced the new HP PageWide Web
Press T235 HD, bringing high quality HDNA (High Definition Nozzle
Architecture) to entry-level commercial inkjet printing. It
operates at a maximum duty cycle of 48 million full color
impressions per month and a speed of 400 fpm (122 mpm). Pitney
Bowes will sell this model as part of their IntelliJet 20 HD series
for transactional print and mail operations.
In 2016, HP and Pitney Bowes launched HDNA technology on
PageWide Web Presses and IntelliJet Printers. HDNA doubles print
resolution to an industry-leading 2400 nozzles per inch. It will
also allow for faster print speed of up to 1000 feet per minute
(305 meters per minute).
“The upgradability of our high-volume printers is one of their
key benefits,” said Dies. It allows us to constantly test new
innovations and bring those innovations to our clients faster,
without requiring them to absorb the lost time, expensive costs and
operational disruptions of a traditional ‘fork-lift’ upgrade.”
