Tally launches world`s fastest business inkjet

Venture Computer, the sole distributor in South Africa for Tally Printer Corp., Europe`s No 1 line printer company and a leading designer and manufacturer of high performance printers for key industries, such as banking, telecommunications and Government, today announced the Tally T3016, the world`s fastest business inkjet.

A revolutionary printer, the T3016 combines 360dpi mono inkjet quality with an exceptional 16 pages-per-minute/2000 cps performance and has a very low cost per page. The T3016 has a workload capacity of 60,000 pages-per-month, and can effortlessly handle both continuous forms and cut-sheet media.

"The combination of speed, high workload, high quality output and ultra- low running costs make the T3016 an unique printer," explained Richard Fearon, Business Development Director at Venture Computer. "It not only tackles traditional impact printer applications reliably and cost- effectively, but also has the print quality to offer a serious alternative to laser printers in many applications, while saving enormous amounts on running costs. Direct mail addressing and the production of high quality barcodes, travel tickets, stock/picking lists and invoices can be achieved at a truly low cost for the first time."

The key to the success of the T3016 is its printhead design. Two 128- nozzle printheads, each with a life of some three billion characters, use specially formulated ink from easy-to-change cartridges each capable of delivering around 40 million characters. The result is a cost of ownership, which, at around 10% of a typical inkjet`s running costs, is more comparable to that of serial impact printers.

By using Tally`s impressive T2170 printer housing and engine, the T3016 also provides assured reliability, extremely flexible paper handling and a host of advanced automatic features, including automatic paper path selection, automatic paper loading Tally launches world`s fastest business inkjet and parking and printhead gap adjustment.
