May 15, 2023 High-speed inkjet is considered a technology that can drive print’s transformation from traditional analog processes – notably offset – to digital production, even far beyond short-run production. There is currently no other press on the market to which the term high-speed inkjet applies as much as the KODAK PROSPER 7000 Turbo Press. With printing speeds of up to 410 mpm (1,345 fpm), it is the world’s fastest web-fed inkjet press for CMYK production printing and the perfect solution whenever bigger jobs need to be migrated from offset to digital. Kodak has designed the PROSPER 7000 Turbo Press for high-volume production in several fields of application.
