CHICAGO, Oct. 10 -- Oce, a global leader in digital document management and delivery systems, today announced that the Oce TCS500, the world's fastest large format color print/copy/scan system for CAD and GIS applications, has received a "4-Star, Highly Recommended" rating from BERTL, an independent, industry-leading source of product evaluation reports and comparative analyses. Of the hundreds of digital imaging devices evaluated by BERTL, only a select few that demonstrate superior business-critical functions and deliver a high return on investment receive this coveted rating. "This recognition from BERTL helps to further substantiate the many benefits the Oce TCS500 brings to large format color CAD and GIS printing workflow in the key areas of productivity, quality, ease of use, and reliability," said Sal Sheikh, Vice President, Marketing, Oce Wide Format Printing Systems division of Oce North America. "It is also a testament to the Oce commitment to provide customers with innovative printing solutions that can improve the way people work." The recently introduced Oce TCS500 is ideally suited for users in the AEC, government, utilities, manufacturing and reprographic industries that need to print or plot both black and white and color large format drawings. The system automatically optimizes print speed and quality with its revolutionary Dynamic Switching Technology. The Oce TCS500 is unsurpassed in overall productivity. In addition to being the world's fastest color CAD printer, it also provides true concurrency -- robust processing, printing, copying and scanning simultaneously -- resulting in bottom-line savings and measurable productivity benefits. Furthermore, the powerful Oce Power Logic Controller with its 80 GB hard disk capacity processes large files extremely quickly and processes the next file while the current one is printing, minimizing delays and waiting time aggravations.
