OptiPrint™ vinyl cleaning roller

OptiPrint™ is our revolutionary media pre-cleaning system. It removes the dust and debris that can cause image flaws in thermal transfer printing. But unlike any other vinyl pre-cleaning methods, OptiPrint cleans your vinyl media immediately prior to laying down the first colour pass. That means there's no time for additional airborne particles to settle on your media prior to printing. So you get Optimal Printing that no other thermal transfer printer can match.

Storage for up to eight auto-changing Smart Ribbon™ cassetes

Summa pioneered self-changing thermal transfer ribbon technology. So it's little wonder that our sixth-generation printer, Summa DC4, takes ribbon design to new levels of efficiency and automation:
 

  • High-capacity - each ribbon prints over 32 square metres
  • Fast-loading - just drop-in a new roll
  • Universal cassettes - the easy-loading cassettes hold any colour ribbon
  • Intelligent - SmartRibbon™ technology auto-recognises your ribbon colour, no matter where it's placed in the printer

Best of all, you can load up to 8 cassettes for long unattended print runs that combine both process and spot colour printing.

Power Take-Up Roller

When you own the world's most automated thermal transfer printer, it's good to know your Summa DC4 has everything you need for long unattended printing. For short runs, the integrated media basket keeps your vinyl graphics from coming in contact with potentially dirty floors. Or when printing long runs, the power take-up rollers can easily handle your longest print runs.
