The Ilumina Digital Color Press handles a wide range of paper weights from 64 g/m2 to 427 g/m2 (17 lb bond to 24 point cover). The straight paper path ensures all the heavy sheets are flat and easily finished. The Ilumina Digital Color Press is a true "on-demand" color printing solution.

Also included is ColourMatch 2 software which offers more in-depth control over monitor, scanner, source and destination color profiles. “The Ilumina Digital Color Press is our fifth color product we’ve released since first entering the color print market in May of 2000 at Drupa,” said Robert C. Ross, Jr., XANTÉ’s founder and CEO. “With the Ilumina we’ve taken on-demand color printing on regular and heavy paper to the next level. This digital color press is designed for the consumer who runs jobs on a daily basis and expects quality graphic output. The Ilumina offers flexibility and control, a more productive workflow, and a comprehensive solution in their budget. We’re raising the bar for the 4-color press at a reasonable price.” said Ross.
